Ok...Ok...you've twisted my arm!
With all the end of the school year hoopla life is crazy between now and June 30th....but when is it not. Guess I have to stop letting life get in the way someday!

Can I join if I'm already pretty far into the project? I'm actually hoping to finish the first draft before the end of May (and the 2nd draft done by June). I'm currently at 32k and need to get to approx 70-75k (I'm an overwriter, I usually have lots to slash in revisions).

YES, of course you can join! This isn't a start-to-finish contest. It's just a finish/polish contest. :D

Okay, I'm in. I know I won't be able to make it to 25K, but I want to get as far as I can to that point and I can use a little inspiration. Here we go!

Okay - I'm in. I've got a whopping 242 words on my new manuscript. I'm hoping a deadline will keep me focused! I've posted this on my blog as well.

Okay. I am in!

I am scared, since I'm starting sooooo late but I am in. And, I'm not really starting until June 10 (when my deadline is for my sequel to my last book) but I am in.

Sigh.

You can totally tell how scared I am, can't you?

Oh, hell. I'm embarrassed now. I still stick with my original statement of keeping zombies outside. Pixie Kings and Gay (ex)boyfriends are more than welcome. ;)
