Reporting in (a little early, but I'm on my computer having a break from work) And seeing as you've posted this week's winners, why not post now :)

Written, 3000
No Editing, but did send in my MS to my beta reader. Yayyyyyyy

Read, 'Across the Nightingale Floor' and 'Grass for is Pillow' by Lian Hearn

Here and now
Hi,
For me, this weekend, it was finally getting the blurb right, and proof-reading 13 chapters (out of 238!), adding words in the glossary as I go along, and creating the character list...

konstantineblacke - Hugs. That really sucks. :( As of right now, I get to keep my tooth, but I'll know for sure in three weeks. Pain is gone, though, which is great.

My report for the week

Written: 500 words (probably 2000 anti-words) LOL
No editing
BUT I SUBMITTED A SHORT STORY!!! (MY FIRST EVER!!!) I don't expect anything from it (in fact I expect nothing at all expect a fast rejection), but at least my stuff is no longer gathering pixels on my computer :D

Read: "The Harsh Cry of the Heron" By Lian Hearn

Word count - 1628.

Submissions, none.

No editing (yet, may do some before bed).

Also I usefully critted (I think) two stories, and wrote back asking for clarification on some things in a contract I'd never seen before. Which was terrifying.

My week:

I got sick, so everything fell apart, including work, my writing, reading, and gym. I'm still not 100% and what's more my beta reader pulled out (due to their own commitments) :gaah

This week: two submissions, 1023 words, halfway in to a moderately extensive rewrite of a 4K short story, and I would have had an acceptance for a reprint but I declined the contract (that wanted non-exclusive rights for the entire duration of copyright and had missing clauses and some other weird stuff).

Ack, konstantineblack, I'm so sorry. Hope you get back on your feet soon.

Sorry about the lost acceptance, but a hinky contract is best avoided.
