ci5_boxoftricksHello!
We're in the home stretch now. I'm sure some of you have long since finished and are just wondering why it isn't time to post already. Others of you are frantically staring at the clock, whimpering at the loss of every second you're not able to spend beating your story, artwork or vid in to shape, preferably with a cricket bat.
Whether you feel the need to gloat a little (go ahead, you've earned it) or to wail in to a sympathetic ear, now's your chance.
+++++++++++++++++++
Oh, and I know you're basically past this point already, but I thought I'd mention a couple of simple writing tools I find handy.
Bubbl is a really simple way to map out and connect story ideas... yes, that thing most of us have been doing on paper for years.
Focus Booster is a lovely little free pomodoro timer that can be used to set to focus on time to get some writing done. While there are a lot of versions of pomodoro timers available, I particularly like this one for being easy to adjust and for sitting in the corner of a document as I type my fingers to the bone. *cough*

Rumours of our editing stories five years later that no one else will ever read again are greatly exaggerated. Yes.
