Round 11 is over!  We had glowsticks and penguins and crackfic.  And people wrote and edited and posted.

Many many thanks to [livejournal.com profile] lullabymoon , [livejournal.com profile] glinda_penguin , [livejournal.com profile] isdon_isgood9 , and [livejournal.com profile] dbskyler , who all took shifts and kept the joy going.  And a grand salute to the Admiral, [livejournal.com profile] studyofrunning !

So this is your chance to brag about it!  Be sure to send [livejournal.com profile] studyofrunning the details of fics so she can update the fic gallery.

And if you haven't already voted in the Round 12 poll, heck, why not?

I made it to the end! *dances*

I'm quite pleased. I got ~700 words written in total today, but I also had several needed plot bunnies and had a whale of a time (even if I'll never look at penguins the same way again!).

Congrats to everyone else who managed to get stuff done and thank you lolmac, and everyone else who helped, for hosting. ♥

And now, bed.

The Fic Gallery is here (http://community.livejournal.com/fic_rush/874.html?mode=reply). Those glowstick fics from the comments qualify for submission.

Is it good or bad that we have now expanded to actually distracting each other from our fic goals by incitement to write crack!fic involving deadly penguins, alien fish and exploding chairs?

Discuss at length... :lol:

There's something rather wonderful about having Avon, Vila and penguins in one sentence. :-D

It was good fun, and I very much hope that next time we do a fic_rush I will actually be in a position to do proper writing, as last time I was being peculiar, and this time I was recuperating. One of these days...

I wrote comment crack fic!

Also I busted through some revisions I really needed to make on my original novella and sent that off to my "accountabilibuddy". I finished up the very roughest draft of a Burn Notice/Justified crossover one-shot, and I wrote about 800-900 words of the MacGyver/Due South crossover plus figuring out major stuff that will help when I have real writing mojo to work with.

All told, I am happy with what I managed to get done. Mostly. I am so grateful for everyone who took a shift or just hung out making things awesome and keeping me at least trying to write! Y'all are so awesome, particularly the ones who committed to being here and driving us all on!

Thanks, I had fun and I couldn't have got near as much done without all the glowsticks. And encouragement. Mostly glowsticks.

A little bitty thing like packing up to move your entire life cross-country? That does tend to get in the way of art. But not crack.

I got a little bit of fic done the first 24, however I was away from the computer all day today, doing various errands, housecleaning and football watching and didn't get anything fic wise done.

I blame the Penquins. They obviously brainwash you with those glowsticks.

I did enjoy all the crackfic when I read the posts.

Damn the housekeeping. I definitely blame that on penguins. Moulting all over the telly.

Saturday was a very successful day, with 4500 words of fic.

Yesterday, not so much - I wrote about 1000 words of utter drivel that I've since deleted as not being worth even re-reading let alone editing.

Ah well.

And congrats to everyone else who got something creative done (incl [livejournal.com profile] lost_spook and her iconses).

Aw, thanks. People did like the WW quotes. I'll have to do some more some time, I think. :-)

And, while deleting words doesn't feel like anything at all, you did write them - and then you have the objectivity to decide they weren't constructive enough to keep, and that's not necessarily an easy thing to do.

True, I guess!

I did not get any writing done. I got a lot of Productive RL Stuffs done, such as baking bread and shopping and trying to tidy my room. I also marathoned some Stargate (yay) and finished reading a book on modern garbage archaeology (which I have to write a 6-8 page review of for class, but really it's just fun). And I did not get my algebra homework done... I have a test today...

I...uh, kinda sorta wrote! Most of it was editing or writing little transitional pieces between other bits so I haven't the foggiest on wordcount but it was a good go. My goal of finishing my current chapter wasn't reached but I was vastly amused en route to my failure by the crackfic and good company.

So, I got about 5,500 words of my Eleventh Doctor fic done over the course of the two days, which pleased me. And the crackfic too...which I put down to us all being bad influences on each other... ;D
