festforall_mods: Three semi-transparent hexagons overlapping like a venn diagram, with a similarly coloured hexagon beneath it. The colours are purple, blue, and cyan. In the middle is a cartoon pencil, and overlaid text says Fest For All Genfic. The word mods is in red at the bottom. (Default)

Pep Talk

We’re two weeks into the fest now, and it’s a great time to check in with your work. How are things going? Have you run into unexpected problems?


Not to worry -- you have six weeks left to solve them. So don’t stress out if the words aren’t flowing -- remember you can always check out the weekly challenges to help get things moving again. And don’t stress over your word count -- a lot can happen in six weeks.


A repeat of last week’s advice, as it’s important: make sure to eat and drink regularly, and also remember to take breaks. Sometimes a quick walk around the block, or even just a few moments stepping away from the computer can help when you’re stuck.


And remember that we believe in you. You’ve got this!
