Helloooo, fic_rush!!

Amyone else out there already thinking, "Wow, I really want to write more next year?"  Anyone else get frustrated because this just wasn't a very writerly year?

Okay, maybe it's just me.

Whether it is or not, I have spontaneously combusted decided to have a Sudden! Micro-Round starting at midnight GMT New Year's, and continuing for 24 hours, through New Year's Day.  I'm not going to post every hour, or even try, but I'll post on any hour that I can.  If you'd like to start the year with some writing, join me!  Check in on the most recent hour, whenever it is.  If you want to usurp an hour or more somewhere, have at it!*

Let's get some writing done!  Or whatever else you want to 'Rush about.  Special virtual cookies will be given to anyone who opens a neglected WIP, or is doing Yuletide treats or otherwise filling prompts.

Come join me if you can!  Tell anyone who might listen!

The Micro-Round will start tomorrow night at midnight GMT, which is the following times elsewhere:

7 pm EST
6 pm CST
4 pm PST
11 am in Sydney, Australia




*If you have never modded, you'll have to contact me to get posting access, so plan ahead if that's the case.

Round 47 is over!

By popular acclaim, Round 47 will be this next weekend, December 14th and 15th.

Mod Squad, including Irregulars:  who's available?  We may have some holes that need filling, so usurpation is likely to be wanted.

Round 46 will be this weekend, the 16th and 17th.  Mods, please let me know (if you haven't already) if you'll be available.

The schedule may be a little wonky, given the change from DST.  In addition, we have a couple of holes in the tentative schedule:  Hours 5-7 (4 am to 6 am GMT; late Friday evening US time) and Hours 12-16 (11 am to 3 pm GMT; early Saturday morning US time).  If you can cover any part of the gap, please speak up!

It's time to play Spot the Schedule Error!  This is for the weekend of the 26th and 27th of October.

Unless I'm wrong (as I often am), Daylight Savings Time will have started in Australia, but will not have ended anywhere else yet.  Next month, we scramble almost everyone's time up, woohoo bleaugh!

Hours of fun! )

Once again, I don't remember whether Welfy is going to be able to be here, so we're planning for both contingencies.  Don will only be around for her Sunday shift, so there may or may not be an hour's Crack in Time during the first night.

We also have a Hole In Time on Sunday, because [livejournal.com profile] lullabymoon won't be able to mod. [livejournal.com profile] lost_spook, I've tentatively slotted you in; do please let me know if you think you can do it!  If not, we'll improvise, or call for volunteers, or stuff rags into the crack, or something like that.

Also:  [livejournal.com profile] seriesfive and [livejournal.com profile] alinaandalion still have not chosen Suitably Pretentious Titles for themselves.  I shall therefore randomly call them Pretentious Things until something sticks.

Let's play "Spot the Scheduling Error"! )

Round 44 will be on the 14th and 15th of September.  I will try to get some wedding pictures posted, so that nobody has to miss out on writing fic, but there's not much I can do about the right of penguins to marry, except to promise to support that noble cause in any way I can (mostly by writing fic).

Mods, please confirm that you'll be available that weekend.
