hihi!!! while august’s check in is mandatory, there absolutely isn’t a minimum word count!! so if you’re worried because you haven’t started working on your fic yet, don’t!!!!! there’s nothing to fear ^^ our check in helps us keep track of our slickfesters (and find out who wants to drop out/who needs help etc.) and because of this we’ll ask things regarding your creative process and your progress, but they’ll all be easy questions with zero pressure!! ^^ so dont worry <333
