Anyone want to try the WIP challenge thing next month? I'm doing two end-of-year gift exchanges (
windupandpitch &, yes,
yuletide) & I think this will be really helpful for me. Anyone else?
I'll keep the signup form the same as last month, as well as the general guidelines (though as always, if anyone has any suggestions, please let me know!).
Signups will be open until the end of the day on Thursday, November 25 -- the end of the day in whatever time zone you're in, I don't need to be exact. Then I can match up buddy groups again to start on December 1.
Signing Up
If you'd like to join us, please comment with the below info. Some of the details might not be used to assign buddies (not everyone will find buddies with common fandoms), but this could be a useful place for people to come find out more about their buddies as they are assigned.
Copypaste below:
Thanks everyone! I've been finding this really useful this month so far -- I hope the other participants are, too -- so I'd love to do it all again.

Date: Wednesday, November 24th, 2010 23:07 (UTC)Fandom(s) involved: Pokémon—although you really need very little familiarity with the franchise and no familiarity with the associated media to figure out what's going on.
What you're looking for in your buddy group: People to bitch to about how it's going, cheerleading, people to remind me to write, people to bounce ideas off of
What you could offer buddies yourself: Happy thoughts, cheerleading, beta-ing (I'm happy to proofread!), word-sprint buddying, terrible advice
How buddies should contact you: DW messages, e-mail (yaysunshine @ gmail; also gchat works too)
