So, after discussions with ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
theladyscribe, she's started the ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
femmeremix (yes, it's hosted at DW).
It won't be happening right now - not until at least early May - so a summer project, perhaps? This also means there's time to get more qualification stories in before sign-up!
I feel bad because it feels a little like I just dumped all this intheladyscribe's lap and left her to (very ably) deal with it.
I will be focusing on my![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
shipswap (ahahaha), my wipbigbang (ahahahahaha), and my rarewomen (ahahahahahaha).
The amusement is for varying reasons.
In the case of shipswap, it's because the recip make the fatal mistake of specifying 'any' in a megafandom. And I don't write major pairings in megafandoms.
She does like high school AUs, though. I might go with one of those. (They're usually pretty easy and fairly safe.)
WIP BigBang is...yeah, struggling. We have a month's extension (for which I'm really grateful) because I think I left this story alone too long and now I can't find the mindset I want to tell the things I need to tell. (And work stress and life stress and house stress aren't helping, either.)
Rarewomen. I have an inkling idea, but I really need to flesh it out. And work out if my recip wants the straight-and-narrow of current canon, or is willing for me to colour outside the lines.
Finally: I've decided that from Easter until Pentecost is going to be a period when I'm going to write profic.
From the 18th of April until 8th June, I'm focusing on writing my own story. So I have just under a month to do all the fic challenges I've signed up for (and a few other bits and pieces besides), work out which story I'm going to write, and get the little plot details filled in.
I need to finish something. Even if it's crap and I can't do anything with it. At least that will be one story out of the way, leaving me the brain space for another.

(I actually like having the project, though I honestly wasn't expecting it to gain so much traction so quickly. I thought there'd be ~20 people, but it's looking like closer to 50. Which is a good number, I think.)
