Okay, duh, I ended up on the last page flatmeming and replied to a "who's writing today" thing from the 15th. Haha.

Heya! I'll be Squirrel.

Assignment and one treat down, and I'm trying to get another one done today. Originally I was writing it for someone who went out on the PH list, but I see they now have a main fic *and* a treat, which makes me even happier. This means I can give it to my original recip in the same fandom, who I was wanting to treat anyway, yay!

At 537 words now. Not that many more to go.

Sister again - the RPF treat is at 1867 words, and I have two more scenes to go! Yay. :) I think it's time to take a lunch break. But then I'll be back at it again. See you soon, guys!

Hey, Sister!

I posted in the wrong thread the first time. /o\ I didn't think I'd get to come back, but I've more writing in store after all.

I've finished two stories, and want to finish a treat and an extra scene on the end of a finished assignment today. Already have a couple more treats planned if I can manage the time, but these have to be done first!

Assignment's at 6300.
Treat's at 1350.

Starting now. Go, you!

Hi, Squirrel! That sounds great. I like that you're trying to spread the treat love around too - that's something I try and do as well. The more people who get even one treat, the better, if you ask me.

Good luck with the rest of it! :D

Nice to see you, Challenger! :)

You're writing SO MUCH this Yuletide, damn. That's so awesome! I'm glad you're back here and have more time to write. :D Good luck with adding more to your treat and your assignment! Woo!

Thanks! Good luck to you, too! :)

Hi! Another first timer to coal_writing her. I'll just go by Red.

My assignment is done and now I'm working on a treat in a new-to-me fandom I just finished devouring ;) I'm hoping to get it done today so I can get it beta and posted be before reveals.

It's M/M actors. I haven't written porn in ages, and I'm afraid it shows. :(

Heya! I love this idea. I was just about to go to sleep and continue writing tomorrow (which might not have happened, since I'm seriously lazy), but this is keeping me going!

Just started on a treat that's for someone really special to me who was complaining that there wasn't even one story in their favourite fandom. Sitting here writing in the middle of the night, and praying she doesn't catch me. This will be posted tonight, even if it kills me.

(goes to make a pitcher of coffee) Keep up the good work everyone! I'm cheering everyone on!

Nooo, I bet you're doing great, coalie! If you feel really nervous about it when you're finished, you could ask someone to beta for you.

Hi, Red! That's exciting. :) What kind of fandom is it?

Aww, you are so sweet! I bet your friend's going to seriously appreciate it when she sees the story pop up, and then even more when she realized that you wrote it for her. Go, go, go! You can do it! \o/

It's a tv show that had only one season. A locally was talking it up back during nominations and it intrigued me. Once I finished my assignment, I hunted down a copy and marathoned it over the weekend.

Coally not locally. Autocorrect is a pain.

Thanks, you!

The assignment went from finished at 6300 to finished with another smexy-times scene at 7300. Not going to write on it anymore, c'est finis!

Haven't touched the treat yet, but after a short break, that one's going down, too. Woo!

\o/

Enjoy your lunch! You're gonna get it done today, I can feels it, Precioussssss.

-Challenger

Nice! That's awesome. :D Way to go!

Ooh, that sounds excellent. I can think of a couple one-season TV shows that totally need more fic. You'll be doing fandom a great service, nonnie!

Thank you! Only one scene left now. Unfortunately I let my last scene be the "they finally make out and stuff" scene, which is always the hardest to write. Arghhh. But I'm so close! It must be done!!

I finished it! \o/ 2946 words - longer than I was expecting. Hooray! :D Now to wander over to chat to see if anyone's willing to be a short-notice beta...

I'm crossing my fingers that it's the fandom of my heart. :D Either way, go you!

\o/

I just did. XD Finished and posted at 3388! Thank you so much for this thread! You're awesome!

Just realized commentor may not be OP. Everyone's awesome anyway! XD This is, I think, in the spirit of Yuletide.
