Writing Plan Thoughts
Jan. 7th, 2010 08:21 pmI really enjoyed writing for both Yuletide and 3ships this year, even though doing two stories in such a short time stretched me pretty thin. I was thinking of other challenges to do this year. I've already picked up the Picfor1K challenge, though I haven't started on it (heck, I don't even know what fandom to write! If you want to suggest something, do so in the comments. I won't tell you what picture I got, so you'll be suggesting blind. Bwa-ha-ha!)
So. Other challenges. I am tempted by the au_bigbang, however my track record with long stories is...not good. I'd need a 'finish your novels' challenge and an 'edit your novels' challenge to really get caught up with those.
I do have some old WIPs I'd like to finish. Hmmm. Maybe I should alternate. Pick a challenge and write new, then finish off old. What do you think might help get me back to writing?

Best of all, though, is finding a new shiny fandom that you want to write for. Maybe ask your f-list for fandom recs?
Good luck.
