I'm *thisclose* to signing up for J/D Ficathon X

[sid]

So close. I've got the form all filled out. Except for my Two Requirements for the story I'll receive. *head/desk* And Optional Request, but that's...optional. *g*



How about the rest of you? Signups are on either DW or LJ, until September 2nd. You'll receive your assignment September 4th, and your 1,000 word minimum stories will be due on October 14th.

The more the merrier, and the more Jack/Daniel for us all to read!!!

Knowing that I'd have you in my corner makes signing up a little less scary. I'll think about it more.

It's a Remus/Sirius fest. I've got an idea, but its a little too big for the timeframe I have to finish, and I haven't figured out how to cut it back. Also, just... putting things on paper is scary.

I would love to get over this slump. I'm so tired of not producing much of anything.

I know nothing about Remus/Sirius. I just know what a fine writer you are. And that crappy first drafts are good things.

Can you start in the middle of your idea and fill in the backstory with exposition?

I'm always very pleased with what little I manage to get on paper. I just need to make that carry over to finishing things, and acting like a writer and writing more often. Prompts and deadlines are truly my best friends nowadays.

I'm just having real issues these days. I get disinterested so fast. I actually am trying an idea that I had 2 years ago since I had scenes written that I didn't use. I thought having some words that just need editing might help, but... I have no idea what my problem is really. Other than the obvious mental shit I'm going through. I just hate how all that has translated over into writing.

*nods* I haven't been myself since my dad passed away, and that's over three years ago. I almost have an ADD-thing going on. And, yeah, sometimes I guess "disinterest" would be an appropriate word, too.

Oh, lord, I'm depressing myself! I'd better go wash dishes or something useful. :-D

[theemdash]

Yes! Yes! Don't let me infect you! Save yourself! ;)

*giggles* IT'S TOO LATE! But at least I'll have clean dishes...
