In which ratherastory learns her limitations. Again.

I don't post much about RL stuff here. I keep that for my regular LJ (which is sadly neglected these days) and Twitter. Today I'll make a quick exception because RL is affecting my fic writing. Feh.

1- I'm moving in a little over two weeks. To a house. Which I bought. *flails*

2- The change of season in the fall is always really, really rough on me. This year is apparently no exception. Blah blah blah SAD blah blah mental illness blah. I get a little blindsided by it every year.


In short, I'm going to do myself a favour and stick only to the exchanges I signed up for and not to the challenges, with one or two exceptions. I have to drop five0bang, because it's 40k and the story isn't gelling at all. spn_cinema is going to have to go by the wayside, because it's due the same day I'm moving and the story is SO LONG that I won't be able to write it in time. Not with my current schedule and energy levels.

It sucks, but that's part of being a grownup. RL has to come first this time. *sigh*

Um... I feel silly for asking, but I've seen that term all over SPN fandom, and I have no idea what it means. What's "comment fic"? :-)

Oh! Comment-fic is easy. Basically, a person or a community holds a comment-fic meme, like this. People post prompts in the comment section, and other people fill those prompts. Traditionally a "fill" fits in one comment-box, but often enough it'll take more than one box to fit the whole story.

Does that answer your question?
