    @Kahara I always love your titles! [face_love] And there are so many great stories and ideas from everyone here that I'm very much looking forward to!

    And while I am not exactly confident in my ability to achieve any of my goals, I've decided to add one more for a story that I've been thinking about on and off this past year and that I'd like to actually finish by July.

    @Findswoman, could I please add a Medium Goal?

    Finish Chapter:     Finish a chapter on untitled, unposted Spring Bingo 2023 story

    Thanks so much! :)

    @amidalachick of course you may add that goal! I've got it in the index now, and I totally applaud you for adding it; I always say that signing up for more goals rather than fewer is actually a good thing to do when a person isn't sure how many they'll actually be able to accomplish, because that increases the chance that they'll at least be able to accomplish something! (Or at least that is how I am feeling about my own WIP goals right now. :D )

    And now, my good people, today is the last day to sign up for WIP Month or to add or subtract goals! Anyone else want to join the fun? [face_batting]

    I'd also like to sign up for reviewing five stories (keeping it simple this time since I went all out on writing goals :p ).

    I may only get the first one done (Life Found A Way), since it's the newest story and I already have a comment on it, but don't expect me to finish any of the stories here, since I have them posted on either FF.net or Ao3 (different usernames, since the former is older than the latter, even if it's only by four years or so), since to post them on both would be a bit of a nuisance (but I can provide the link to my profiles in either the threads themselves or through a PM).

    Of course, by all means, and that’s a great goal, if I do say so myself! Got it in. :D
    Most definitely, and totally understandable! Got you in, too. :D
    All totally fine! All your fellow participants will be supporting you and rooting for you no matter how many or how few goals you achieve. :)

    I know, it's really down to the wire now, but since I didn't finish this story in April like I originally had planned, may I please add the medium goal of Finish Chapter: [Victoria] As the Periwinkles Bloom? Thank you so much! :D

    Why, of course you may, you awesome mod colleague of mine, you! Got it in there now. :D

    And with that, we are almost there! Can you all believe it’s only about 3.5 hours remain before WIP Month officially kicks off? What a great-looking slate of goals we’ve got! (And hopefully all accurate too; if not, do let me know!) We’ve got this, for sure. :cool:

    @Pandora you got it! Since you posted these goals before 11:59 PM Pacific, they are safely in. Glad to have you on board!

    And with that, another WIP Month begins! It is hereby officially time to...

    Since I'll probably only finish the first one (may have to re-watch the movies for the others so that I get Owen's character right), I probably won't start until the middle of the month (I'm a terrible procrastinator, since I still haven't started on the sewing project my Mom wants me to make for her, due to her screwing up her sewing machine). I've been busy replaying Jurassic World: Evolution (the first one, which is the only one I have on physical, since the sequel was taking too long to arrive, so I bought the digital version and gave away the physical once it finally arrived) and I keep having to restart Isla Muerta (man, that island is a pain).:mad:

    I'm at 1869 words for All These Broken Pieces, which makes for a much better start than I had last WIP month :p

    Hooray, that's great! Wow, that means you are officially the first recipient of a check mark in our index; congratulations.[face_party]

    Wonderful! Definitely a great start to the month. I've got it listed in the index. :)

    Definitely an excellent start and something to be very proud of! Got that listed too. :)

    And as for myself, I have been working on an OTP Sonnets Roulette piece titled "So Long Lives This" (a phrase from the Shakespeare sonnet I received), with Jacen Syndulla and his parents. Nowhere near finished, and it's slow going to start, but at least it's going! :D
