Well, folks, since there haven't been any new voters for the last two days, I've now officially closed the poll. Looking at the results, it seems that there are 6 people who checked June exclusively, 6 people who checked July and 8 people who said they could do both.

So, therefore I'm abusing the power gifted upon me by [livejournal.com profile] altariel the Great and decide that we'll follow her excellent advice and do the mid-year pico in two teams: Team June and Team July. (And, as someone has suggested, I insert a proper Bwahaha! here. *g*)

In any case, please sign up to the team of your choice. As promised, I'll do the daily posts for Team June and most of July, and my sincerest thanks for the volunteers who offered to take over between July 8-14.

Expect the kick-off post for Team June next Wednesday.

[Poll #1842740]

I'm signing up for June, and making myself really put effort in for that one, but may join in in the latter half of July if I've recovered!

I've signed up fro both in the hope that between the two months I'll manage enough days to make some progress!

Yep-, that about sums it up.

I'm signing up for both, with my usual goal of "write something every day". :-) *yay-Pico dance*

I've signed up for both, but will concentrate on June and see how much energy I have in July. Even if I end up not writing as much in July, I'll be glad to do a daily post when you're not available.

I've signed up for June but will pop in in July whenever I can to watch everyone's progress.

I've signed up for July, but I'll pop in during June when I can.

Signing up for both.

Without [livejournal.com profile] picowrimo, I have no motivation to write my original fic. *cries* It's been almost a year since my last update... >_>

I'm signing up for both, think July might be more productive but my predictions about such things are usually wrong.

Signed up for both because I've been very slack lately and need the impetus.

Aww, thank you! That's so encouraging. I often wonder who reads B7 any more. Was this on AO3? I do have some other fandoms there you may also know.

I hate RPS / RPF too unless it's historical figures; I've read some lovely Roman stuff. My site will never have any unless a character travels back in time, and I doubt that.

Have you tried using the Wayback machine (http://archive.org/web/web.php)? Of course it may not work with a journal, but it's worth a try.

You took the words right out of my mouth (though I am on holiday part of July, so haven't signed up for it);.

Lucky you! It's winter here (I'm probably the only one on the wrong side of the world here*) so I don't have any pleasant distractions like that, just work and looking after an unexpected boarder. :-P

Signed up for July, but may turn up in June.

I answered June in the first poll because I will be away from mid-July but the first week of June is school holiday and not easy either so if I have the option, I set myself a sort of 5 week period spanning the two as an incentive to stop overworking and make some time for life.

Tentative

Possibility of July if I dare begin draft 3 then. Hope new writing amounts will be considerably less then than they are now.

Ah feck

Looks like it will be June after all. Second draft nowhere near sodding finished...

Sorry about this!

This means you'll be here? Oh good! We'll give you a little tailwind :)

A push when your energy flags. I have to work on my metaphors--I was going to talk about a draft like in bicycle racing but it all got too complicated :D

Ah! I'm not lacking in energy but the plot keeps "downloading" bits and pieces in my head all the time and trying to keep up has me busy!

I'm writing now and it's doing it!

I clicked June because I'm expecting to get more writing time then, but I reserve the right to do July too if it's going well.

First time participant here, thanks to [livejournal.com profile] altariel's post about it.

I've clicked 'both' tentatively. Will definitely be doing June, with the goal of finishing a novella-length fic,begun in March for the Back of Middle-Earth Month 2012 that visited inspiration and doom upon so many of us in the Tolkien fandom. My dictatorial strictures upon myself for June shall be: One 500 to 2,000 word chapter completed every other day.

I've signed up for both, echo-ing reasons of I might be able to scrape together something useful in two months if I can't do it in one!
