For everyone who is having trouble with his or her story...
...you've got amnesty.
I've been hearing from a fair number of people today who were panicking over the deadline and their uncooperative stories.
Now, I know what it's like when you're fighting with a story that just won't work or is fussing about how to start or is insisting on being longer than you expected (I had that happen back in January when my![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
smallfandomfest story turned into something long enough to qualify for NaNoWriMo.)
So. Anyone who needs more time? You've got until August 15th. 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time, to be precise.
And if you go past that...hey, you know I'm not going to kill you.
And now--poll!
[Poll #1599470]
(By the way, I'd like the stories from the general claimage prompts to be posted here. I only ask that, in the spirit of the ficathon, such stories be about women.
Also, yes, comedies are permitted.)
The date after which you can archive somewhere other than here OR the link at A3O is still August 7th. Incidentally, I'd still like to have more people posting their stories at A3O--it's a good place to post and to get the attention of other readers.
