FFXIV Write 2024 Round Up!

YEAR EIGHT, BABY!

Another successful challenge completed. :D Thank you as always to @sea-wolf-coast-to-coast for hosting once more and congratulations to everyone who participated! Whether you did one prompt or all thirty, you still WROTE, so great job!

As with the past two years, I did not track my word count; much as I love statistics, focusing on my own is to my detriment, including trying to "do better" than last time. Thus, I focused on just writing, and I'm pretty proud of my prompt fill spread this year. Lots of the Squad, lots of Dawntrail stuff, an attempt to write more from the POV of NPCs, some food porn, some carbuncles, aaaaaand at least two of my fills got people to cry, so that's a win! :D

But now it is October, which means it's Editober (or FFXIV Edit) for me! September I follow the letter and spirit of the challenge: just write, with no editing at all (even if the typos I see after the fact make me itch). But I really like going back to look over my ideas, and so during October, I take the time to fix spelling and grammar, tweak things for flow or clarity, or even further flesh out an idea that I couldn't do under the time constraint of the challenge. Everything on Tumblr, however, remains in its original raw state.

Thank you to everyone who read and commented and cheered, and thank you to everyone who shared their work with us, too! You also know why October is great? I can start catching up on all this AMAZING fic! \o/

But before I go, some links:

As a special treat, for the whole month of October, I've temporarily unlocked my AO3, so log in is currently not required to read along. (I will be re-locking my account come November 1, however.)
