If you're running around GYWO—whether you're a 2026 writer or just joining us for the Year-End Marathon—you've got a work in progress and we want to know about it. Comment to tell us a little about what you're working on (obviously only what you're comfortable sharing—please note this post is public), and read other comments to find out what everyone else is working on, too. If you find an idea you love, let that writer know you're excited about their work!

What Are You Working On?
Answer the questions below and/or include a few other fun or unique things about your WIP that you want to share.
  • Fandom or original work?
  • Working or file title?
  • What's your pitch, your vibes, or a major component or trope driving your story?
  • What are you looking forward to the most (a specific scene/moment, writing a twist, being DONE)?

One last reminder that this post is public to allow our YEM-only writers to participate, too, so make sure you only share what you feel comfortable sharing publicly.

How's It Going YEMers?

Can you believe it? We are twenty days into our Year-End Marathon! That means we're roughly a third of the way through the challenge, for a par of 10 000 words or 10 days towards your YEM pledge. But whether you're on par or not, we'd love to hear how things are going for you. Your triumphs and your frustrations. Are the words flowing like water or does it feel more like time is slipping through your fingers? What can we do to help you reach your goal?

For myself, I've been struggling to get words into the project I was wanting to focus on this month. The desire is there, but bum glue has been in short supply. And then a whole new (and much shorter) project blossomed into my GYWO Scrivener project and oh look at that, words! 😅

If you're soaring ahead, great job! If you feel like you're falling behind, just remember this is a Marathon and we've still got a good ways to go. You could have zero days of writing and still make a daily writing pledge, so hang in there!

This is not a check-in post and participation is entirely voluntary. The official YEM check-in will happen on Discord at the end of the month, and while that is also entirely optional, we strongly recommend it as a way of supporting your writing habit.
