Bits and bobs...

I can't believe I haven't posted anything since 12 July! Where has the time gone?

The past six weeks or so was swallowed up modding this year's round of dramione_duet, which is always a bit hair-raising and, this year, involved making some art and writing a pinch-hit story, Be careful what you wish for (NC-17).

Great art! Shame that participant dropped out though.

And this reminds me that I should update my drabbles, ugh. Congrats on the wins. (Also, didn't you say you were going to stop at the comm for a bit?)

Those are cute and in photos at least look real enough.

Thanks! I know. Wouldn't it have been great to have had two art duets? Next time, I'm going to include art in the main sign-up post, so we may get more artists.

Thanks -- congrats to you, too. I voted for yours! (These days, I really look for the ones with the most unusual takes on the prompt). No, I had to drop out last month because of going away, but I sort of feel a responsibility to support the comm ;-)

The guinea pigs actually look more real in real life!

I think that might be good. Although I think we've talked about this, would this mean that they would be included in the 20 people only? (Are they now? I forget.)

Thank you. And that's kind of funny! :P I might've voted for yours, I can't remember honestly. I'm lucky if I can remember which one is mine by the time voting comes around!

I'm glad you've not stopped completely (even if it means you snag all the prizes!).

That's great. Good find. :)

No, the artists would be extra, and I wouldn't put any limit on them because I don't expect we'd get more than two or three!

I can't usually remember what I voted for but, for some reason, I did this time. It could get very embarrassing if you didn't remember which was yours & voted for it. I usually write mine at the last minute, so it's still seared in my memory!

Good, good! Er, not that you don't expect to get a great deal, but that there won't be a limit to the number.

I do remember enough when I read it, but I try to always "get it out of the way" as soon as I see the post with that month's prompt, because I know that if I don't I will either spend way too much time thinking about it, or forget about it.

But I'm horrible with remembering things I've written in general, even the titles. Once it has been written it's "done" and I can easily go without posting it (even if I like the end result) just because I forget about it. I need a better system, but I also need time to put that system into place (once I've come up with it). I also need a better system for backing things up, so perhaps when my current assignment ends next week (nooooo!!) I will take some time to deal with it.
