12 Days of WIPness!

Due to more response than I expected, we'll be doing the 12 Days of WIPness this year!  We'll use the same schedule that we have been and it all starts on Monday! 

Get your WIPs ready!!!



If you have a WIP that you think you can get finished up in 1,000 or fewer words and you want to try and crank it out for the end of the year and finish with more words to count, then HAVE I GOT A PLAN FOR YOU!

The Twelve Days of WIPness

- On the first day of Wipness my wordies gave to me: A Wip and a plan to finish it ASAP. (Dec 20th)
- On the second day of Wipness my wordies gave to me: One hundred words (Dec 21)
- On the third day of Wipness my wordies gave to me: One hundred fifty words (Dec 22)
- On the fourth day of Wipness my wordies gave to me: Two hundred words (Dec 23)
- On the fifth day of Wipness my wordies gave to me: THREE HUNDRED WORDS! (Dec 24)
- On the sixth day of Wipness my wordies gave to me: One hundred fifty words (Dec 25)
- On the seventh day of Wipness my wordies gave to me: One hundred words (Dec 26)
- On the eighth day of Wipness my wordies gave to me: Finished rough draft (Dec 27)
- On the ninth day of Wipness my wordies gave to me: Submission WIPness beta (Dec 28)
- On the tenth day of Wipness my wordies gave to me: Beta reading someone’s WIP (Dec 29)
- On the eleventh day of Wipness my wordies gave to me: Tweaking the returned from beta WIP (Dec 30)
- On the twelfth day of Wipness my wordies gave to me: A finished and posted WIP. (Dec 31)


It's an ambitious plan, but we've done it before. WE CAN DO THIS! Feel free to switch around the numbers to suit your schedule. And it does leave beta readers little time, so if you have a large piece that you are just putting finishing touches on, maybe get what you have to your reader before the 20th, and if you are able to read a 2K fic on the 29th that would be fantastic too!
Any beta reading volunteers?
