Time for another check-in post!

♦ What progress have you made with your writing this week?
♦ What's something you want to work on in the coming week?

Feel free to ramble about anything else writing-related in the comments, such as if you are seeking writing or editing advice, need a rubber duck to move through a plot issue, or just want to gush about how awesome that scene you just wrote turned out (feel free to share snippets!).

Instead of posting another mini challenge, I've got a question for everyone as we move towards the end of the year.

--

What are you hoping to achieve before 2026 ends with your writing?

Once you've got an answer for that, what steps do you need to achieve that?

--

Feel free to share, or just think about it on your own, whichever you're most comfortable with.

And would anyone like the occasional post to check in on progress for the remainder of the year? If there's interest, maybe I can put up a post each week or fortnight for updates on where everyone's at. :)

When you see this, write a drabble (100 words) or double drabble (200 words) for one or more of the following prompts:

- chocolate
- space
- witch

You can use the prompt with the exact wording, or in a way where it's clear you've drawn inspiration from it.

Hi all. It's Valentine's Day here (which also happens to be my birthday, just sayin').

There was some interest in an event on the Discord, so here's one I've been thinking about for a while now but am 100% winging it with when it comes to actually putting this together (which is pretty on brand for Worderlands events tbqh).

I hope you have fun with it and have a good heart day! ♥

This event is going to involve elements of a co-op quest or collaborative story. Also a little choose your own adventure because you can choose one of two paths (or walk both paths!):

1) Leave a new comment on the theme of "love" or "cake" or "amethyst" with a short story (roughly 300 words or under; if your story is three sentences that is fine too!)

2) Respond to an existing comment aaand continue the story within it or write some fanfic based on the other person's story.

I'm curious what you'll come up with! Happy writing.

The end is here! Of the challenge, that is. Even if you only got a few words written or spent some time thinking about your projects, I hope you enjoyed the process.

♦ How'd you go with your writing this week?

Aaaand now, day 5. How is time moving this quickly?

♦ How's the pacing of your current writing project going? Are you writing in order or not in order, writing flashbacks or time jumps, or just going start to finish? And how do you think your writing would be affected if you took a different approach?
