Yuletide
A little reminder to sign up for this year's Yuletide Rare Fandom Fic Exchange if you haven't already. Deadline's tomorrow night.

I had kind of a bad experience last year, since the request for the fandom I had offered was for a pairing I couldn't get my head around no matter how hard I tried. So, this year I'm seriously narrowing down my offered fandoms to the ones where I know the source material inside out - and that I could imagine myself writing het, slash, gen, schmoopy fluff, or brain-breaking angst for. Still thirty-odd fandoms, though, so I have no idea what I'll end up with.

I'm going to take this opportunity to pimp the story I got last year again: Dream's Labyrinth, a great crossover between "The Sandman" and "Pan's Labyrinth."

The less said about the story I ended up writing last year, the better.

Agh, Yuletide. Every year I want to do it, and every year I do not. It would be a bad, bad idea. I rarely write 1,000 words in one fic, I feel moderately comfortable writing about maybe two of the fandoms listed, and I'll be given a prompt without knowing beforehand if I'll be able to make it work. Bad, bad idea.

But everybody else gets to do it, and it looks like fun. Waaaah. *Whine, whine, whine.*

Oh, Vel. It's actually pretty flexible. You only need to offer three fandoms, I think, and you can actually drop out with no penalties after getting the requests, and they have "pinch hitters" set to step in write extra stories. Not that I'm pushing, or anything, but it's not as bad as it sounds.

I whipped out my last entry in about two days, it was the most horrible thing I'd written all year, and my requester *still* liked it. :)
