Support: Round 010!!

[trixie-chick.livejournal.com]

It's time once again to sign up, and rope your friends and neighbors into signing up! This is your official Round 010 Support Thread! Appropriate functions would be flailing, encouraging, questioning, prompting, impromptu ficcing, despairing, hope-bringing, celebrating, and, among other things, of course, panicking. Inappropriate functions would be microwaving, vacuuming, weapons testing, and, naturally, corporate espionage.

Feel free to post anonymously if you want to avoid leaving any clues for guessing. (We'll also screen all the comments on this thread during the two week guessing period, just to be safe.) --ETA: I decided not to screen this time... there's not much guessing fodder in here, anyway, and besides, we WANT lots of guesses, so... ^_~

Writers: Complaints about lack of progress, random spam while writing, requests for fanfic writing ideas are all welcome.

Readers: Please feel free to comment as well! Leave your reassurances, fanfic ideas, and more random spam here.

Enjoy!!

Tell me why I signed up? I have better impulse control than this, usually!

I'm worried whatever idea I will come up with for Sai would be totally unoriginal. My best-Sai related ideas have been a. written in a previous round b. done before by someone else, and c. made into a doujin.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFF D:

It only occurs to me after I signed up that I don't think I've ever actually written Sai before. O_o

All done! I finished writing today.

This is partly to brag (hey, celebrating is on the list of appropriate functions), but also partly to inspire other people to start early. Last round, I did my fic last-minute and wasn't happy with it. Now I can go back and reread with a fresh mind in a few weeks, and edit as much as I want before I submit.

/trivia and q&a thread starts -

Reviving old support thread help and support line, just in case there are points in the series that you need a refresher on. ^_^

Mm, a quiet support thread is quiet. I guess I'd better ask this as I'm afraid I might miss the deadline.

Any fic prompts you'd like to see about Sai? I'm headdesking as I have no ideas, and so I'm willing to adopt bunnies you've found to be unworkable/just have no time to write/anything about Sai really.

He's difficult to write, dammit.

-one sad anon writer.

Yay, finished one fic! Now, is anyone else going to try to write 10???

[(Anonymous)]

I have a question.
What is maximum file size for one story?
i.e. Beyond what character count should I break it down into chapter files?

[love]

4 days before the deadline is NOT the time to toss a 2000+ word fic because it needs to be re-written from a different POV. *sighs*

[(Anonymous)]

Please tell me I'm not the only one writing a crossover.

[(Anonymous)]

Sai is so hard to write *drop* It's like he's bipolar or something, sometimes he's exciteable and amused and "yay!" and then he's all intense and serious and you go, wah, how would he react here?!?

... I also think my Hikaru is crushing on Akira (NO REALLY? :D:D:D)

[(Anonymous)]

How can it be this difficult to come up with a title...? *sigh*

(Oh well, I know. The good part about this is to have a story that needs a title.)

*throws in the towel*

[love]

If I can't even write about Sai when I have a ready-made plot and I know two people waiting for this thing, I think I know I'm done.

[(Anonymous)]

Raise your hand if you just began writing now? Please don't say I'm the only one...

*sob* I'm not going to finish, am I? 17 hours left...

Gwah?!

[(Anonymous)]

So I have an idea that totally has the potential to span a chapters long fic, but because of the slow way my mind works, I'll have to pigeonhole it into a two page fic. And I've never written Sai before. Now I won't feel satisfied until I've hashed the entire story out. Oh, blindgo, the things you do to me.

Flaking out... :-(

Too many RL deadlines/commitments these past few weeks. At least the BG process gave me a fic plot idea, which is more than I've had for a while...
