We have. A number of years ago the writing thread was really active!

My goal is to have a short story for another challenge I signed up for before Yuletide finalized today. I have a rambly rough draft, no ending. Going to fix that and I'll only have editing to do later in the week.

Also today, I need an ending for one yuletide story I've already written. Revisions later in the week.

Of the two other stories planned, I need first drafts. I kind of know what I'm writing, so I'd like to have a solid first draft for both of those by bedtime tomorrow. I'd say today, but I have other things to do and might not have time. I'll reply to this with updates. I hope several people join in!

That's an impressive amount of stuff to juggle. Good luck with all the drafts!

Thanks! The last couple of days have been productive because instead of procrastinating writing I've been procrastinating housework and holiday prep. Ha! Here's where everything stands.

1. Short story for non-Yuletide challenge. Rough draft COMPLETE at way too many words for a short requirement challenge. my god.
2. Yuletide assignment. A thousand words of rough draft, probably a thousand left.
3. Yuletide assignment (sock). Rough draft COMPLETE at just under 4,000 words.
4. Yuletide treat #1. Rough draft complete at about 2,000 words.
5. Yuletide treat #2. 1,100 words of rough draft. Not sure how much is left. Probably 2-3k
6. Yuletide treat #3. 550 words of rough draft. Maybe a thousand to go.

A solid 9,500 words of that has been in the last 3 days, and I still intend to get another 500 or so written tonight to help offset the coming days when I'll have much less time.

Done for the day.

2. Yuletide assignment, rough draft COMPLETE at about 2000 words. Three down, three (treats) to go!
