With apologies for the slight delay, below are the buddy groups I came up with. I tried to match up on fandom (or even types of fandoms), what people were looking for, even time zones (important for word races/scheduled writing time!) where possible. But... obviously there were no perfect matches. Hopefully there will be enough overlap to be workable!
If you've signed up, could you leave a comment here just to check in & confirm that you're still interested, please? Thanks!
If you are no longer able to participate, please do let me know. Offline life gets in the way sometimes--it's very understandable! Just leave a comment or send me a DW message so I know to rejig the buddy groups.
Group A
mystiri_1
eggcrack
intothisshadow
Group B
littlebutfierce
dbskyler
vangirl
Group C
pyrasaur
snowynight

Teams may want to rename themselves, of course. ;) Especially if, say, one team wants to challenge another to see which team can write more words in a day or during a word race or something. Nobody has to be that competitive if they don't want to! I just figured that might ignite some people's competitive spirits -- & one needs a good team name to do some trash-talking!
I'll post weekly check-in posts, probably near the end of each week.
I don't know if it would be helpful for each group to have a post to leave comments on -- you could track the entry to get all the comments in your inbox -- if that might be helpful? (Although... am I missing it, or is there no button to track an entry on each entry page? If it's not just me, I will see about getting our layout changed to one I know has that feature, ha.)
Anyway -- if you want a post for your group, please feel free to start one! Or to post in general, of course... if you want to solicit more widely for word race participants or whatever!
Regardless, time to start getting in touch with your buddies in preparation for next week! WOOOOOOO!
I think this will be good. Thanks again, everyone!

Good luck w/the work stress!
