Round 40 has ended!

[lolmac]

How did you do?  Did your fic writing get usurped by any emo teenaged Daleks?  Did you click your ruby slippers three times and get whisked away in a red Type 40 TARDIS (special edition)?

Tell us all!

Please take a moment to thank the Ruby anniversary Mod Squad:

welfycat, isdon_isgood9, agirlnamedtruth, justice_turtle, pitry, lullabymoon, alinaandalion, lost_spook and myself. Special thanks to seriesfive, the newest member of the Irregulars, who cheerfully went on stand-by as an Emergency Backup Stunt Mod, and to sidlj and pitry, who graciously shared usurpation duties.

For my part, I mostly wrote non-fic stuff such as wedding website text and silly posts about lizards in the mailbox. But I also managed to get in a few hundred words, and I can actually see the end of my current chapter if I squint!

My emo teenaged Dalek got usurped by fic writing :(

(My writing has been non existent. I need to remind myself that now the term is over I can go back to writing fanfic. sigh).

[lolmac]

You wrote some crackfic for the Rush itself! That totally counts!

I got very little done on the writing end. I ended up working all day on the cleaning project. But, I made 294 bucks. And I earned it. The house looks habitable now.

Maybe next time I'll be able to do more on writing.

Forgot to say, thank you, mods. (my brain is mush)

Enjoy your very well-earned rest! See you next time!

I got less writing done than I wanted, but I did get some editing done. So that was not a total write-off.

*envisions the Total Write-Off as a Really Big Writing Competition*

"Wouldja look at that, Fred -- he's just nailed that double entendre and now he's going in for the extended metaphor! Didja ever see typing like that?"

Thanks to all the lovely mods who were such good company! There is something very encouraging about having a voice on the internets cheering you on. See you next time *waves*

[lolmac]

It was great having you here! This was your first round with us, wasn't it?

Do keep an eye on this comm -- I'll post a poll so we can choose the weekend for next month's round, and announce the dates once decided. Hope to see you again!

I have this vague idea I popped in once before on a round long ago, but yep this was the first time I tried to commit to an entire round. It was great!

Will do re keeping an eye on the comm :)

I do thank the mods for encouraging words, even though I didn't end up writing anything. *g* It was just too hard to concentrate on writing, when I kept thinking, "Next week I'll be in my hotel in Calgary." "Next week at this time I'll be the middle of a Jack/Daniel sandwich." "Next week I'll be flying home."

Distracting? Yasureyoubetcha!

[lolmac]

Delicious distraction!!

I want to say thank you to everyone who helped covered my shift. I was swallowed up by a singularity that occurred at our local renn faire. Timeyness was very wimmy, indeed.

[lolmac]

We'll blame it all on poorly costumed Ren Faire Daleks. Those evil creatures!

I don't think I wrote. But I just finished watching movies with my housemates: Persuasion, Hot Fuzz, and the two Iron Man films! I am claiming all this as Research. ;-)
