This is not good for my self-esteem...

So the artist who claimed my fic accidentally claimed two, and now I'm back warming the bench.

I am trying very hard not to take this as a sign that I'm not meant for this at all.

*cries*

It would help, of course, if I wasn't feeling sick and whiny today already. :P


So, uh, hypothetically... what happens if my fic never gets claimed? Do I get kicked out of BigBang in disgrace, or what? The FAQ doesn't cover that...

That is horribly, awfully distressing, but DON'T WORRY, your fic will be claimed. And if by chance it DOESN'T (because the truth is there are less artists than writers), then I for one would be thrilled to claim it in the second round. (some artists end up doing two fics in case of this eventuality, and they have pinch-hitter artists, too. no fic is left without art)

[livejournal.com profile] thehighwaywoman just reassured me that, just like in gym class when the teacher forced the team captains to pick everyone for a team, those of us whose stories don't get claimed will get an artist anyway. :)

I think having to leave BigBang with my tail between my legs would have been horrifically soul-crushing. :P
