One Million Words

The problem with February Bingo this year is that it's 2018, which means the Winter Olympics are on and I've been splitting my sleep in order to get up in the middle of the night to watch ice skating live, going to bed at half 8/9pm, getting up anywhere between 2 and 3am and staying up til 5/530 and then getting maybe an hour and a half more sleep before getting up for work.

It's been tough.

But I am working on a 3x3 card and have a drabble blackout done so here goes!

Quodlibet (noun)
quodlibet [kwod-luh-bet]

noun
1. a subtle or elaborate argument or point of debate, usually on a theological or scholastic subject.
2. Music. a humorous composition consisting of two or more independent and harmonically complementary melodies, usually quotations of well-known tunes, played or sung together, usually to different texts, in a polyphonic arrangement.



Origin: 1350-1400; Middle English < Medieval Latin quodlibetum; compare Latin quod libet what pleases, as you please

Now YOU come up with a sentence (or fic? or graphic?) that best illustrates the word.

We have been doing awesome this month, so let's keep it going


Comment here and I'll put you on the list! It's as simple as stepping up when your name is called and doing your utmost to meet your own daily word count (whatever that may be). When you finish, write a small bragging post and call up the next contestant!

Be accountable for one day!

Who wants in?

Comment here with the count you can reach in the month (remember to factor in holidays, finals, road trips, pajama days, hangovers, etc). I will check in with you every 6(ish) days to make sure you are on schedule, to push you if you aren't, and to shake pompoms at you if you are (Well, I'll probably shake pompoms at you either way).

Your count is up to you. There is no minimum beyond what you decide. But Big Buddy will be watching you! If you pledge 100 words/images, then every 6 days chime in to tell us that you've produced 20% of them.

This is not words to be done in lieu of something else. If you have a bingo, or a big bang, or a drabble-a-day, it all counts! Words/images do not have to be posted to count, they just have to be done!

Not quite as much as I'd hoped, but not too shabby. Wrote a short little ficlet and added words to a Power Rangers Dino Thunder AU that I've been working on.

Passing the torch to erinm_4600. Best of luck!
