The Big G Goes For It
I'll join the crowd and start my own list here. First article:
Technically I finished it after midnight, but since I'm far enough east of the International Date Line I figure it still counts for March 1.
Welcome to the challenge! I look forward to seeing what you write!
Second article:
11:45 PM--better than yesterday.
Third article:
Welcome to the challenge! I look forward to seeing what you write!Ha ha, me too! It'll probably end up mostly a roster of who's at the Eddy. By the way, do you get a notification for every message posted to the boards?
I have been following all the threads, so yep!
Fourth article, a bit of a different style:
Fifth article:
Question: Must each day's article be written on the day it is to be posted? I ask because I have a vacation coming up in the last week of March. I will be spending two days traveling, and can't guarantee I'll have the time or opportunity to write. It would be nice if I can "pre-write" an article and then publish it the following day.
The goal is to make the time to write even when it is difficult - but not to make the goal so high you can't do it on the hard days. I've written articles on my phone in airports before, just to keep myself in the habit of writing daily. That being said, life happens - no streak can last forever.
Sixth article:
This was once published with about 75 words in it, but I pulled it down ages ago with the intent to do major repairs. Today I scrapped the old material and started over.
I will write on subway train.
On the bus and in the car,
Write articles where'er I are. No WiFi? I can write offline.
No battery? It's notebook time.
The lights are out? I'll think my way.
Just have to post before next day.

Love that poem!
Seventh article:
I've been assuming I'm allowed to edit previously posted articles, but it can't hurt to ask: is there any limitation on expanding stuff I've already written for this challenge?
Nope, you can expand on old articles. The core of the challenge is the daily word count; you could add that to the same article each day and it would be good.
Eleventh article:
And Onnos is better fleshed out now.
Sixteenth article, and the halfway point is passed!
Twenty-first article:
Two thirds of the month done!
Got the multipass page for Tkevsa Engine, which looks very interesting!
Twenty-fifth article:
Double-checked that I hit "publish"!
Twenty-sixth article:
An older article that has long needed an update.
Twenty-ninth article:
Thirty-first article:
And that's it! Success! Thank you so much for hosting this challenge. It was tough and I made many questionable bedtime decisions, but it got me to write about a lot of things I've been ignoring for a long time.
Getting a multipass error on the hub
Did I really do that? For a fourth time? Oh yes. Yes I did. Of course I did.
