Yay: it's finished!! Not-so-yay: it's almost 900 words over the limit. Going to have to do some serious editing tomorrow...

Title: Of Madmen, Minions, and Christmas Miracles
Words Written: 1368 on 12/21 (10864 total)
Progress: Finished the sucker!! :D Now to edit-edit-edit.

I'm off to pack up some of those ten dozen cookies I baked last night for hubby to take to Ork Christmas party and get some more sleep. Then I have to hit the mall (ugh!), start wrapping stuff, bake some more cookies, and somewhere find some time for editing...:D

Oh gosh, really don't stress the edits! If it's over, it's not a huge deal, the max was to keep people from going epic, so you're fine!

I brought my total in at 9,327 but I'm still tinkering so it might go either way, up or down LOL.

I can't wait to read this! :)

I'm not stressing over it, exactly. It's more of a personal issue. I just need to prove to myself that I can do it--or at least come relatively close. :)

And I've postponed the mall trip until tomorrow, so will definitely have a little time to edit later. ::grins::

Pre-posting nerves are setting in. (This always happens, but since this is my first SGA, it's even worse. *g*) I'm starting to worry that people will be disappointed after reading, that the character voices are off, etc. So one way or another, I'm posting on Sunday and getting it over with, because I'll have holiday stuff to keep me preoccupied until then. :D

Yay!!! I can't wait!!! It's going to be so great! mmmm...cookies sound so good....*g*

Preposting nerves.... *shivers* Yep, I know *all* about those. But my story wasn't have as good as yours... *grin*

Hopefully the next one will be better... if I ever manage to finish it!!! That's the good thing about deadlines. I get more done when I know there is a deadline. (Maybe that's why NaNo is something I can do. *g*)

Anyway.... sorry about that tangent... CONGRATULATIONS!!!
And yes, I will hopefully get back to you tomorrow....

*g*

Thanks, meli!! I never would have made it this far without your support. :)

I'm sure your story is way better than mine and I can't wait to read it. :D

I posted, but if you had time to do a beta, I'll certainly be more than happy to edit the entries. If not, no biggie, I'm happy to leave it as is also. ::grins::

Merry Christmas!! :D

Aw, you'll be fine! I went ahead and opened submissions this morning, because I won't be around until after Christmas after this morning.

I can't wait to read it!
