A fest and the WIP meme

Jan 18, 2011 19:44

I signed up for springtime_gen, a gen fic fest in the Harry Potter fandom, since I am enjoying the other HP fic I am working on. I kind of wish someone else I knew would sign up though. Hint, hint...

Oh my gosh! I want to read that Sulu story! It sounds amazing. (wow, am I a broken record? I'm so predictable, seriously.)

Definitely seriously considering springtime_gen, but keep bugging me if I forget, because I'm ridiculously swamped with this move this week.

I do so love all of these ideas. *beams encouragingly*

All these ideas sound great, but the Sulu one is amazing.

Signed up for springtime_gen! :)

Yay! Now I will cross my fingers that you are my recipient, because you are nice, and some of the people who signed up sound kind of weird...

LOL! I picked different characters than you though, so we'll have to see. Looks like there are 20 people so far. I read through and made sure that there were at least a handful of people that I would be comfortable writing what they'd requested before I signed up. Don't worry-- I'm sure you'll get someone nice. HP fandom is a little intense sometimes, but we're really nice too. :) HP also is a lot more exchange-oriented than Trek and people are used to giving lots of info in request posts. But I shall definitely not complain if you get me again! I'd be sure to get an amazing fic. ;-)

It's not so much the volume of information as the tone of some of the requests. Maybe intense would be a good word? So matching works by assigning you to people who asked for the same characters you did? That makes sense, I guess. It's the first time I have ever signed up for an exchange without being asked which characters I was offering, so I wasn't sure how they were matching people. I will probably have to be careful with my sign-ups from now on because I tend to request characters I can't write. I think I am okay on this one though...
