November sign up

[lilly_c]

It's time to sign up for the November WIP challenge! The previous month can be found here.

Some people join the challenge midmonth, or comment on check-in posts without signing up, which is fine -- I'm glad there's a way for the challenge to be useful in a variety of ways.

But for those of you who find the commitment of signing up useful, please leave a comment with the below information.

Signups will be open until the end of November.

Level of challenge: 1 chapter, 1000 words, 1 fic finished, whatever you like
Fandom(s) involved: if you know at this point
What you're looking for from the challenge: this could be as vague or specific as you like: someone to be accountable to, someone to remind you to write, someone to bounce ideas off, etc.
What you could offer other participants yourself: ditto!
How people should contact you: DW message, e-mail, IM etc.
Time zone: useful for seeing who might be up for a writing session at a time convenient to you

I couldn't continue to run this challenge without assistance with the daily check-in posts. Many thanks to everyone who's helped with the check-ins before!

Please let me know if you'd be interested in helping out. A week per person would be ideal (I usually assign weeks running Sunday-Saturday just for consistency). I'm happy to help come up with suggestions for discussion topics (& Friday or Saturday is usually the general chat/snippet/beta-seeking etc. post).

(& if you've completed a fic through the challenge, don't forget our collection on AO3! If you need AO3 invites, let me know.)

I've been lurking on this community for a few weeks, but did want to try to do this.

Level of challenge: I'm looking to do 25,000 words and finish as many of the fics I've had plans for as I can in the month of NaNo. Ideally I'd need to write about 850 words a day to do that so I need someone to encourage, even when I'm tired/have excuses or wanting to throw the whole fic away. I'm very easily distracted and the people I know IRL are no help with that.

Fandom(s) involved: Free!, Fruits Basket, Attack on Titan, Bungo Stray Dogs, Jujutsu Kaisen

What you're looking for from the challenge: encouragement and someone to keep me on task.

What you could offer other participants yourself: encouragement and someone to vent to through PM

How people should contact you: PM on dreamwidth

Time zone: EST
