Round 12 1/2 is over!

Round 12.5 is over!

And it was a great success in spite of being sudden in inception, barely announced, and half-length!

Many of us are suffering from muses (or nurses) kidnapped by penguins, but the glowsticks prevailed, and we’ve started the year in the best possible way: by writing! Now here’s a post so you can brag about what you accomplished!

Once again, fervent thanks to isdon_isgood9 and lullabymoon, who stepped right up to mod even at the last minute, and to juliet316, Backup Mod and source of much cheer. And welcome to the newest recruit to the Mod Squad, idlewild_, who kept her cool even without the Little Yellow Pencil of Modly Privilege.

Round 13 will be later in January. If you haven't yet voted for which weekend, here’s the link.

ETA:  If you missed the final glee, here's the latest commentfic:

Barely announced sudden things are the best.

I got about 2,600 words of the MfU/Danger Man crossover, that should be about 2,600 words, but is 7,700 some words and only 3/4 done, written. If you can follow that, your brain is less fried than mine. In short, my oneshot grew, and it's taking forever to write, so this mini-round was a boon.

Nice to see everyone getting the new year off to a writerly start! And I get to stop and read Lothi's new piece now!! Yay!

Yay for an early start to the writing! I had family over so couldn't take part properly, but I managed to squeeze in at the last kick and write a Firefly drabble Dance to the Music of Time (http://community.livejournal.com/gen_drabble/53471.html)!

I got about 500 words done in total, on a variety of drabbles and such... Ah well, I'll do better next time... I hope! :D

I got a 700 word short story done for someone's stocking, did a bunch of pointless (but not particularly productive) editing on my Eleven vs the Evil!Elephants WIP, and was stampeded by a whole bunch of angry plot bunnies. Thanks for all of the drabble prompts! The Gallifreyan clam dip one is definitely looking promising...

I had a ton of stuff come up last minute in RL so I'm still at 1,300 but this was a wonderful treat regardless.

Thank you all for making my first time so wonderful.

Not much to brag. 161 words overall. Still better than what I did in a full round.

Hopefully Round 13 will treat me better.

I suffered from the bane of all writers, sudden family invasion. Didn't get much at all written. :(

I wrote just over 4500 words - got two fics completed and another one started.

I think I probably got about 1000 words done in total, on two different fics (one a ficlet), and some editing. As always, it was fun to have people around!!
