Finish-a-thon 2009 Master Post!

[kerravonsen]

Stories are now due!

No, don't worry, they aren't due yet! You still have a couple of days. But since I've had a few people already tell me their status, I figured it was a reasonable thing to post the master-post early, so early-birds could get their worm.

Stories are due on the 27th. It will be later than 10am Australian Eastern Standard Time, because I am going to be sitting in a doctor's waiting room at 10am...

If you have finished
Make a comment here, saying "finished", and the URL where the story is.

If you have a partially complete story
Make a comment here, saying "partial", and the URL where the partial story or 1000-word extract is.

If you have nothing to post
Make a comment here, saying "tried", and some explanation as to why you did not succeed.

I am using the awesome power of the finish-a-thon wiki to present the story-finished results in a neat manner, in the Author Status Page. This page will be updated periodically as the information comes in.

Note that there are authors who have indicated to me that they will have something posted by the deadline; I have put them under "tried" until I actually have a URL in my hot little hands.

I won't be posting a finished story, though if you want I suppose I could do an exerpt. The problem wasn't finishing it; I could have done so. The problem was, it wasn't going right. One of the characters was taking over the story and turning into a Mary Sue. So while I could have finished a story, it wouldn't be the story I wanted to tell nor a story I want to put out there with my name on it. Re-writing and rearranging things so that the whole thing works would take longer than there is time for, unfortunately. I don't know how long--this has thrown me back into the "needs to percolate" stage, unfortunately. I thought I was out of that stage for this story, or I'd never have volunteered it. I'm really sorry about this.
