2009 Project Revival Challenge
Autumn is on our doorstep, and (if you're like me) you're wondering how this year seems to be going faster than any before it; your writing has been pushed to the back of the desk, and everything seems more importantant than words right now. But niggling in the back of your mind is that project you started last year, which had potential, and won't leave you alone. This is your chance to remind it you know it's there, and you still love it, and to get something finished.

We'll be sure to update the main challenge post with new participants and winners, and to get those winners icons out to you.
What is everyone working on for this challenge? I'm going to be trying to get my novella/novel Chasing Ascension through to completed first draft - I kind of abandoned it when I found out I was pregnant in early November, but would really like to get it finished before the baby comes!
I'm attempting to finish my Yu-Gi-Oh fanfic series "What Can Never be Forgotten or Forgiven" and my 2009 NaNoWriMo "The Good Luck Priestess". If I find I somehow have time left over, I will see about finishing my 2006 NaNoWriMo, a Fullmetal Alchemist/Stargate: SG-1 fan-novel called "Fullmetal Alchemist: The Star Array".
But first, I have two reports and a drawing to do for homework. XD
Lol, you sound very busy Klepto! but yay for joining the challenge and trying to get some things finished off this month!
Well, seeing as I posted this challenge up you'd think I'd be well on my way to being finished. No such luck. I really need to get settled in and actually do some writing, rather than being happy to be sidetracked. I have been doing some thinking on my WIP for a while, and I really do feel ready to get back into it. It basically needs a full rewrite from start to finish. It doesn't have a name at this point, I started it in Oct, worked through it through NaNo, but haven't touched it all this year.\
So, no more knitting!!! (my current obsession, lol) Gotta get some writing done before this baby arrives (due on the 16th!)
I want to join this challenge. I'm Samanthadroppie, who was already doing this challenge, but my account doesn't work anymore, or the password doesn't. But oh well, now I got a new account. So yeah, I'm still working on my fic for this challenge. It's just a little story about teenage romance and drama and that sort of stuff. I think it's almost done, but I'm not sure. But so yeah, I'm still doing this challenge, just under another name =)
Hi Samantha! Sorry to hear you had an issue with getting into the account, we're trying to figure out what has happened in regards to that. But yay for making another account and coming back to do the challenge! How is your fic coming along?
I'm still yet to make progress... hoping to finish this short story over the weekend so I can get back into Chasing Ascension soon, the month seems to be disappearing rapidly.
I'm in! I swear I'll do something with my long lived novella of doom (Invented Wings).
I'm in. I was working on a rewrite of my 2007 Nano last year, so I'm going to try to carry on with that. :)
So...I'm done with everything except for studying for my last final and practicing an oral report...
I now have 2.5 weeks to get my goals done. XD This should be interesting.
