I'm a bit over 15000 word and I still have to write the climax scene. I'd already sent the first bit to my beta readers because I knew I'd be late. I'm doing nanowrimo with a piece of original fiction so I'm a bit short on time. 

BTW, I also put an explanation of how to convert on the first page of this thread. There are a few different steps that we were struggling with last time and this was the way it worked.

Absolutely. I just got the first fic and the formating is perfect. Well done, secret you!

One question.  Oh what date next month will the submitted stories be posted?

I see.  So they'll all be posted over a period of days, then.  How will this be done?  Will the stories all be posted on their own thread, or what?

If I'm not mistaken, there will be one a day.

A little research in the previous years' Santa threads might answer your questions.

How is everybody doing? I've written 2200 words so far and I like what I did, even though it is not enough yet.

I'm currently over 9,000 words. For now all my attention is on a fic for a different fest. Will complete this but possibly not before December 1st. And am having fun with the plot.

Just a little update from me:

So far I received two fics that are finished (plus one extra piece of work just for fun) and three requests for an extended dead line. I would feel a lot better if finished fics started coming in soon.

04.12.15 ---
05.12.15 Fic 3
06.12.15 ---
07.12.15 Fic 4
08.12.15 ---
09.12.15 Fic 5
10.12.15 ---
11.12.15 Fic 6

13.12.15 Fic 7
14.12.15 Fic 8
15.12.15 Fic 9
16.12.15 Fic 10
17.12.15 Fic 11
18.12.15 Fic 12

Looks good!
Can I just suggest that, as a Secret Santa (i.e. Christmas present) you could use the last two ones to fill two gaps from the beginning?

Nice posting plan. Excited already.

I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

Looks very good to me. And I would support Lily's proposal in case you get nothing to fill the gaps at the beginning.

I think that depends on the amount of fics Schmiezi already has at this time.

Exactly. At the moment I am a bit pessimistic about it. :-(

Keeping fingers crossed that you will be flooded with fics during the next days.

Oh but surely all the fics will roll in November the 30th. 

I agree, if possible, it'd be nice to have the last ones at Christmas. 

Update on my fic: the climax sequence is done: yeeey! Now I only need one denouement scene and it can be edited and back to my betas. I think I might make the deadline, depending on how many mistakes my betas will find.
