[identity profile] norfolkdumpling.livejournal.com posting in [community profile] ci5_boxoftricks

Well, well, well.   Today's the day, eh?   The finish line is well and truly in sight!

So, authors - let us know how it feels to have the finished draft submitted/about to be submitted.  Freeing?  Cause for a party?  Terrifying beyond all belief (surely not! :D)?

And artists - we're well on our way now, with our rough drafts submitted today, and from now until posting day to work on perfecting them.  Or maybe you're the organised type (*hint*  This would not be me....) - already finished so you can sit back and put your feet up with a well-deserved glass of something fizzy?

Feel free to use this post as a place to squee, flail, gibber, chat or collapse in a heap and wait for a good-looking agent to come around and feed you grapes and pet your hair.

Take a seat on this here couch...tell us all about it!

And can I also just say, on behalf of all my fellow modly types,  thank you so much to all who are playing, cheerleading and reading along in this year's Big Bang.  It wouldn't be anything without your participation and support.  We're grateful for so much enthusiasm, and very excited to see the results!   Go Pros!

I feel a sense of incredible disbelief that I have produced a finished thing - it seemed like it was fundamentally impossible for a while there! *g* But seeing your lovely art helped so much, as I've said already ♥

That said, 'finished' is a relative term, I have a few more edits I want to do before posting - excited about getting the posting date now!

And thank YOU lovely mods, for making this all happen ♥ *sprinkles glitter*

Sorry, no time to sit down, gotta hurry back to work...

Anybody out there willing to help cleaning?
You feel a need for swinging the paint brush so the "new" construction trailers at the Kindergarten get a new coat of paint?
You know how to create serial letters in less than three hours? Without hitting anything?
Your fingers itch to sew or/and embroider?

HELP!!!!!!!!!!

Or maybe you´re the type to sell time? I´d buy! If only five minutes.

(Maybe I just need somebody to tell me "STOP READING!") *g*

A big thank you

Well, I was going to write a witty post and such - but work has been murder. I was reading out loud for the final run-through and nodding off. So I think I'm going to go to sleep now...

But I will be happy later. :D

And I did want to go personally thank everyone who's helped with the process, so I'll stay up long enough to do that.

And thanks to everyone here who encouraged as well. That was really appreciated. :D

:stumbles off:

Story turned in, but there is still some 'tweaking' going on! I'm looking forward to posting because then I won't be able to edit anymore! *g* I'm really looking forward to reading all the great stories! Congratulations to everyone for reaching the end!

I can't quite believe I got mine to a state where it could be seen! It's not finished. Oh, no that would be too much to hope for but it is nearly there. Just some final tweaks and a read out loud and possibly a new scene or two. Heck! Might be more to be done than I thought. Better get to it then.

Looking forward to reading and seeing everyone else's efforts. My artist has done an amazing job.

Luv
