Challenge Dear Diary Challenge 2017 | 11/30: 2018 Challenge Discussion Now Open

Let's get things started...

Phoenix Rising: The Journal of a Rebel Pilot

 

Yes, the list of the five eligible diaries is on the first page, but I have also added it to the voting post.

As for getting the word out: Briannakin sums that up well in her post, so I don't actually have anything to add.

 

I decided that if I tried to finish my DDC 2016 Journal as a regular fic I will never finish it. So I am going to finish it as a DDC 2017...in a new thread of course.

The Journal of Talon Tantiss (Part 5) Secrets Revealed Vol 2

 

Well, here goes.

Repentance: The Diary of Tristan Kenobi

 

Canadians in the East Wing is up in NSWFF.

(And yes, this diary will likely get me in trouble )

 

Started my 10th diary featuring Kaagi Adin in
Healer-on-Moniron

 

My diary for 2017: Mirror of the Knowing Soul

 

Mine is here: Code Breaker: The Journal of Kash Ferros - the story of the guy who was almost a Jedi.

 

I did it [DDC]Teenage Rebellion (Multiple Narrators)

 

Here's mine: Doaba Ke'demii - The Diary of a Young Comradette.

 

This year is going to be awesome in at least some respects! Looks like we have a really promising bunch of diaries starting.

 

Here's mine, sorry it's a little late: Memory Books and Personal Logs

The Life and Times of Leo Lyman

It's a Diary for The West Wing, but since it takes place so far in the future and is based around an OC, I don't think you'll need to know TWW to understand it. (I've added a primer for the things you might need to know).

 

Seeking the Past: Diary of Otis the Goat

Decided to give this a try this year. A bit of a weird pick of fandom that I'm not sure many people will get, but hopefully it will turn out okay.

 

With the ice age that looks to be hitting the country, it should give people some good time to write.

 

There is just one country?

 

Okay... northern hemisphere. The polar vortex sucks.

 

Just a reminder: the voting for your favorite diary of 2016 will end tonight (though, depending on your time zone, it may be early morning, mid morning, or later) at 12:01 AM North America Mountain Time. That means that you have around seven more hours, so the end is not exactly nigh, but it is coming.

So if you're interested, get your vote in! We have a good turnout thus far, but more votes are always better.

ETA: It is 12:02 in the Mountain Time Zone, and that means that voting is now closed. Watch this thread--the winner should be announced soon.
