Check-in post

[linndechir.livejournal.com]

The deadline is in two weeks, on Sunday, November 29th. Please reply to this post to let me know whether you will be able to finish your fic/art on time or not. If you have to drop out, please tell me now so I can find a pinch-hitter. Don't wait until the deadline to drop out, and don't just disappear without a word. If you think you will need a small extension, please tell me as soon as possible, but I'd appreciate if everyone could at least try to meet the deadline. If you don't reply to this post in the next few days, you'll get an e-mail from me. Obviously you don't have to check in if you've already sent in your fic/if you've already dropped out.

A few things to remember when you send your fic/art to me:

1) Include a header in the following format:
Title:
Author/Artist:
For:
Pairings/Characters:
Rating:
Words:
Warnings: (don't forget to warn for spoilers)
Prompt:
(Summary, if the prompt was rather vague)

2) Fics should ideally be sent in as text files (.txt). doc, docx and odt are also fine.

3) Fic writers: please include html coding for italics etc. Make sure your formatting works and that there is a BLANK LINE between every two paragraphs, i.e. that you hit enter twice after every paragraph, not just once. You have to do this manually. It is not enough to tell Word to leave a bigger space between paragraphs because that will not show up when your fic is copied & pasted on LJ. I know that should be obvious, but there's always someone who forgets about it and it makes fics pretty hard on the eyes.

4) Your fic should be beta read or at least spell-checked very thoroughly. If you don't know anyone who can beta for you, please contact someone from this list.

Thank you. If you have any problems or questions, please talk to me.

hey, yo, just checking in to let you know that I ended up scrapping the fic and starting over. welp. but I'll be able to turn it in at some point, unless college gets in the way.

I have about 500 words written but I'll definitely be able to finish before the deadline. :)

[thinlizzy2.livejournal.com]

I'm making good progress, so it should be done on time.

Hi, just checking in to say that I'm making progress on the fic and that I would get it done in time xx

[plaid-slytherin.livejournal.com]

Mine is actually finished! It's resting before I get to the edits.

[minebyrights.livejournal.com]

Should be set!

[flyingharmony.livejournal.com]

I'm generally in a pretty nasty writing low lately, but I am confident that I will overcome it soon hopefully and make it on time!

[oxfordsplice.livejournal.com]

I have about half of mine written so I think I'm okay.

[j-okay.livejournal.com]

I'm in the late stages of editing, so mine will be finished soon.

Barring a total disaster outside of my control, I'm on track.

[emynithilien.livejournal.com]

I haven't disappeared, and you should have my fic in by the deadline ;).

[crossingwinter.livejournal.com]

I have a draft of mine and it should be done by the deadline; that said my beta is taking the LSAT so I might be a hair late (though that's a very tiny possibility, since she knows this is coming up and has a deadline).

All good here.

[janie-tangerine.livejournal.com]

I'm definitely making the deadline unless REALLY unexpected stuff happens, but it shouldn't get out of my hand if I'm judging right ;)

[godlessflorin.livejournal.com]

All clear.

[littleloonlost.livejournal.com]

On it!

[yunie1281.livejournal.com]

I'm good.

[mautadite.livejournal.com]

sorry about the last reply! i anticipate needing an extra day or two, but i'll let you know if i do.

[bastardofdorne.livejournal.com]

Apologies for the delayed response. I'm on track with my fic :)

[dawnerah.livejournal.com]

Hey, you didn't reply to my first mail, so I'm just commenting here to keep you updated in case something went wrong with mails (:

I've finished it now and just sent it to a beta. Might need an extension of a few days.

[josephcda.livejournal.com]

Hey, just wanted to tell you I might be a little late with my fic. there is the possibility I'll send it on time though, so don't worry.

[linndechir.livejournal.com]

Sorry about the delay, I replied to your email now.

[linndechir.livejournal.com]

Okay, no problem if you need a few more days.
