RANDOM

Here is a few things in no particular order!

Signal boosts:

1. pikasafire is hosting a not-in-November Nanowrimo! 50k in a month, and it doesn't even have to be ONE fic. I am going to try to finish all these WIPs I got lying around. We'll see how well I do with that, eh?

2. Over on dreamwidth there is a Really Awesome Looking Bandom Rec Meme going on. I read all the way to the bottom and got sad when I ran out of comments, so go rec stuff! There's a lotta Panic happening RN and you know what they say about variety? \o/?

3. bigbang_mixup looks interesting! It's a reverse big bang where you can submit a fanmix and someone will write fic to it. Sadly, this one is all-fandom and it looks like no one from bandom is signed up as yet. I started thinking about a mix I'd like to make and wound up bunnying myself with a story. Oh my GOD I am NOT allowed to start any new fics. No no NO.

Has there ever been a Bandom Reverse Big Bang? That would be awesome. Someone should get on that. :D?

4. In my bbb procrastinations, I updated my Masterlist! Thanks everyone for your kind input in the poll, it was most helpful!

5. People are starting to talk about their BBB posting dates and art and mixes, but I haven't got mine yet /o\. Wave 2 has been so weird for me because it hasn't been a crazy big rush with me writing 20 000 new words in the last weeks before deadline. The fic itself hasn't really CHANGED that much in a while and I keep getting stuck in the "ugh, I don't like it, no one will read it whine whine whine" place. But hey, I am VERY excited for lots of new fic and so many of my favourite writers have written for this wave, so that's cool.

6. Anyone got time to look over a little 2k ficcy thing for me?

7. Because I am a sheeple, let's have this meme that everyone is doing:

If I made Cinderella, the audience would immediately be looking for a body in the coach.
— Alfred Hitchcock

When I write a story, what do you immediately look for?

I know, I know, porn. Humour me?

Ugh, I kind of sort-of want to try and start a Bandom Rev BB now, despite my whole not-really-having-lots-of-time and also the whole never-modded-a-comm-before-let-alone-a-fest. But I DO think it would be a lot of fun, and hopefully get artists and mixers more feedback too, because what they do is just as creative as writing.

Aww, wow, thank you, that's the best thing to hear, because it IS so important to me for it to be more than JUST sex. Well, most of the time!

You should do it!

Every time I've seen this brought up there's been a lot of interest, and you're right, the artists and mixers should get more attention. *enables*

You're welcome ♥

I would LOVE to see a fest, a meme, whatever, based on art. Writing the story behind a picture? YES PLEASE.

Aw man, you guys are such enablers. I might have to make a specific Expression Of Interest post to see if it's a viable thing...

*ahem*

If it takes place after my Panic! concert in October, I might be willing to help out...

Of course, that runs into NaNo then, so maybe not a good idea. I don't know how many bandom people do NaNo.

Well, watch this space. I am thinking of putting up a 'who is interested?' style post and we'll see where it goes from there!

Ugh! I don't even know where to start! Okay, this is a lie, like I wasn't totally looking at other fandom reverse bang comms brainstorming. Ugh, I'm insane, but I think I've managed to twist mizubyte's arm to help me. This might actually happen.

I second this. I'd totally join!
