GDI, I was optimistic, too

I have to drop a BB. I just found out that there is a strong possibility that I will have to move before my lease expires August 31st.

I'm working a ton of OT in July, leaving for a weekend in mid-August, and THEN going to Vancouver for the last week of August. Most of that is non-negotiable.

There is no way I can pack, apartment/house-hunt, work all my OT, leave town, and get all my BBs written in that time.

So I'm dropping thebigbangjob. It's the one I have the fewest ideas for (I have a premise but no plot) and it's 20k less I have to worry about. I can write my Sam/Dean Minibang in a couple of big pushes since it's all planned out, and that leaves me the rest of the time to write my Dean/Cas BB.

I am sad about this, but there's no way I can do all the rest and keep my sanity.


On a different note, thank you to jesseofthenorth for the lovely virtual prezzie! \o/

I should have put this in my last post, but oh well.

I have come to a decision. I have all these plot bunnies dancing around in the back of my head, mostly for SPN and H50, and in the whole BB and challenge madness I have been neglecting the sad bunnies.

So once my current BB obligations are filled, I'm not going to sign up for any BBs until 2012. I think having a restrained list of BBs I would really like to participate in is a good plan. So, tentatively, here are the BBs I'd like to do next year:

- spn_j2_bigbang: it's my first love, and I can't imagine not doing it

- deancasbigbang: hopefully I won't crash and burn this year, but I had such a wonderful time with last year's BB that I want to keep doing it.

- sncross_bigbang: I never managed it this year, but I'd like to give it a shot next year.

- Whichever one of the existing H50 Big Bangs survives into next year. I somehow doubt it'll be the one I'm in this year, but you never know. :)

And that's it. All my other writing I'm going to do on my own time, just for the sheer joy of it. No pressure, only stories.
