    December 1, 2008 - TGIO
    Hello my fellow Wrimos,

    I just wanted to drop a quick note to tell you all how proud of you I am. We've faced the beast and came out the other end. That sounds a bit dirty doesn't it? *grins*

    Maybe next year we can drag our community moderator with us. So where ever she is, we've got to find her.

    I wanted to congratulate the following members of our community:
    [info]ederyn, [info]kitsune_wolf, [info]dyinginthesun, [info]yuuo, [info]24601, [info]boxedcrayon125, [info]kijin_san, [info]inoru_no_hoshi, [info]ceria, and [info]astridxvi.

    You all rocked.

    If I didn't mention anyone, it's not a slight. I only went back to the 15th to check word counts. If you either post here or send me an email, I will add you to the list.

    It's over ducks! We can finally party!

    See you all next year,
    Jenn

    Day 30 - Daily Word Count Post
    The final hours are upon us. Hands are hurting. Eyes are crusty. Backs are curved. And our houses look like they've seen better decades. But it is all for the good.

    If you wrote only 15,000 words. That's 15k more than other people. If you wrote 20k? Same thing. 30k, 40k, 50k, 60k, 70k, 80k, 90k, 100k? You're as insane as the rest of us and you need to sleep.

    So for those who need just a couple more words to reach that 50,000 word goal. You can do it. We're cheering you on.

    And like the song says. "Deliver me."

    Post is up. Have at.

    Jenn

    post is up early because I'm about to fall out and I still haven't reached my goal for the NaNo yet. Still have another 9,000 to get to today.

    Last two days ducks. Let's wade through these last days and hit those counts. On the other side is Tylenol, Advil, Aspirin and Icy/Hot. Oh and that bubble bath and blessed silence.

    Post is up. Have at.

    Day 26 - Daily Word Count
    Turkey day is right around the corner for those of us celebrating (hiding in the spare room typing between courses) Thanksgiving. We've had a few more winners. I am envious. Really. *grins*

    For those of us who haven't hit 50k or 100k, we can still do this. We've got four and a half good days of writing left. I'm giving us a 12 hour shift for the festivities.

    I've finally finished Chapter 2 of my novel. Tolkien look out, there's a new wordy geek coming up on your rear. I adore J. R. R. Tolkien, so that should say something.

    Okay, post is up. We need those word counts and to hopefully horde away bits of food when we can for the next few days. Have at.

    I'm slowly but surely catching up on my word count, not as much as I would like, but I'm getting there. So dears, the post is up. Have a good day and an even better writing night.

    Have at!

    Day 24 - Daily Word Count Post
    It's Monday morning and I have come to a startling conclusion. There is no possible way for me to hit my 75k goal between now and Sunday. But that's alright. I'll have at least some of these monster-sized chapters completely written. I might end up with a little under 60k.

    Post is up, have at it.

    It's Sunday and we've got exactly one week to hit those goals. So, can we do it? Yes! Will it be legible? Ehh! Will it count towards having one of our life's goals reached? Hell yes!

    So let's get to it people. And for those who've already hit their marks. Congratulations!

    Canon vs. Guide
    Okay, so I love reading writing guides (even when I really should work on fixing the layout of my ij) and also love reading fan fiction guides.

    Ahem.

    Dear FanficGuide Author,
    If many of your points begin with "Yeah, it's canon but..." and then proceed to tell others to break the rules of canon/consider stuff that's not canon, then maybe you shouldn't be writing guides.

    To clarify: You are telling fan fiction writers to, when they write Pokémon fan fiction, have their trainers ask the wild Pokémon if they want a trainer before capturing/keeping them. Among many other things.

    In the games you capture a wild Pokémon and then work on getting its trust so that Return can 1-KO. You do not get the option, when having captured a Pokémon, to ask it if it wants to come along or be released before the nickname option.

    In the anime, Pidgeotto certainly did not get any options about Ash capturing it.

    As far as I know, that also goes for (all of) the manga (series, at least three the last time I checked, all of them very different).

    What do you know, all three wildly contradictory canon sources agree on this point.

    Yet you tell your readers that a hero can't capture a Pokémon without asking it first. You go as far to say that it's fantasy racism to take that choice from the Pokémon, nevermind that according to the games' canon, it's remarkable if a Pokémon-species is sapient.

    To quote the PokéDex entry of Dragonite:
    An extremely rarely seen marine Pokémon. Its intelligence is said to match that of humans.
    It suggests that it isn't the norm for Pokémon to be as intelligent/sapient as humans.

    And this is just one point where you say "Yeah, it's sort of/really canon, but I say this and you should write what I say".

    You present this Fan Fiction Guide to help new writers in the fandom. Yet you just lay down the rules that's your opinions and likes. It kind of leaves a bad taste.

    No love,
    Caithyra

    9 Days and counting. Some of us have a little less, some a little more, depending on where we are in this great big world. If I fall out and sleep on November 30, I want to let everyone know how proud of them I am. You guys wrote a novel! Several if we combine them.

    Post is up. Have at.
