Wow, what a line up!
Some years we wonder if perhaps we should maybe make this a 2 yearly event and then this happens, more lovely writers than we can shake a stick at!
Thanks SO much, everyone, there are possibly EIGHTEEN future Pros classic stories in that list, what a wonderful start to the spring!

I'd just counted them when I read your comment, 17 besides me (or you).

Isn't it fab :0)

Woot! Woot!

I always find the writers reveal really encouraging. Next goal, 5k by July :0)

It's FANTASTIC, so many fabulous writers there, (not LEAST your good self) and some new writers as well. Wow, this has made my day!

My good self is still at 840 words, my good self needs to get her rear end in gear! :0)

5k is just over 4 chapters for me. I'm thinking I'll come in around 8 or 10 chapters. But what do I know, last time I estimated a 15k story it came in at 30!

What have I done?!!!???

[identity profile] creedcascade.livejournal.com 2021-03-17 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
It’s never too early to panic. Runaway! Runaway! Suppose it’s good that I’ve started.

Where do we find the betas again?

[identity profile] creedcascade.livejournal.com 2021-03-13 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
So I started. 369 words currently. Looking for someone to bounce some early ideas off maybe via a chat thingy. Writing is a bit rusty. Slash. Bodie/Doyle.
