Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was only a matter of time. You can all come out and say "We told you so, ratherastory. You have no willpower at all!"

I am laughing so hard right now.

::looks forlornly at my own Bingo cards::

LOL

We should be Bingo Buddies or something, and cheer each other on. ;)

I'm consoling myself with the notion that I have until December for all this...

Bingo buddies indeed. \o/

I am such a challenge addict. I do not know what's wrong with me. I can't stop signing up for them. *hangs head*

I finally managed to brainstorm my spn_summergen, castielfest, and deancasbigbang fics today. So I think that's progress?? *snorts*

And yes, I tell myself I have until December for the Bingo cards. And I cheer myself up further with the news that we really have until May 2011 (that's when Amnesty ends for most of the Bingos...you won't get points after December, but you still have a few months to turn in fic).

I DECLARE THIS THE FIRST MEETING OF CHALLENGE ADDICTS ANONYMOUS.

*stands up*

HI! I'M ratherastory AND I'M A CHALLENGE ADDICT.

I CAN QUIT ANYTIME I LIKE!


I have a fic due June 30th for a challenge, and then I have the three you mentioned. I know what I'm doing for the BigBang (I am really excited, if only I could get myself to sit down and write the bastard), but summergen and castielfest are... problematic. I like the prompts, but they're crossovers and I'm terrified.

[claudiapriscus.livejournal.com]

Ooh! Crossovers? I'll be keeping an eye out for those especially :) Why are you terrified?

[ratherastory.livejournal.com]

I've never written crossovers before, and while I'm familiar with the shows requested I'm afraid I won't do the prompts justice.

*waffles*

[claudiapriscus.livejournal.com]

Don't worry about it too much! You've got an excellent ear for dialogue, a great instinct for character motivations/realistic reactions, and your exposition is always unobtrusive. Those are the hardest things to get right in crossovers (I should know, given how many I've read- I can't resist them at all, good, bad, or ugly), and you've already got them down.
