Um, whoever is writing Repo! femslash, you are clearly awesome in a very disturbed way and I look forward to it. ;)

I'm so excited!
(Especially for the Twilight stuff - that's kind of a guilty pleasure :D)
Have you decided yet whether us vidders will be assigned to a story or get to pick them?
I kind of want to do a Twilight one, especially if it's Alice/Bella :)
Or the GG/SVU one :)

all artists and vidders are going to be assigned to specific stories, though those assignments will be heavily (read almost completely) based off the fandoms you list as being able to create in.

that said, depending how things look in 3 months, when first drafts of stories are in, we may do a round where artists can pick a second/third story to create art for, as an added bonus. but don't quote me on that. :D

This is an powerfully awesome idea. :D

Awesome! Could you remind me of what I wrote in the sign-up, because I honestly don't remember and I may be able to add/change bits of it to include new interests :)

I'm quite surprised at the number of people who've expressed interested in Keeping Up Appearances fic! I thought when I signed up, I was just writing it for myself, for fun. *g*

Quick question - I can still switch fandoms, right? I just had a brainstorm for a fandom that I've never written at length in before, but you know - sudden stroke of genius. XD

you have until the last day of February to switch fandoms, though please do it sooner rather than later. if you could just comment to your original sign up comment with your new fandom, that would be great.

Question - can I sign up to write two stories? I've had a trawl through the posts and couldn't find anything that said I can, but couldn't find anything that said I couldn't, either. I'm pretty certain 30k of fic would not be a problem for me, and while I still want to write the epic Susan/Talia I also have this rather nagging desire to write a Janeway/Seven Borg!telepathic!connection fic... :D

short, easy answer: no.

long, more complicated answer: yes, but only one of them will be officially eligible for art. you could still workshop/squee about the second story with us here, and probably we'd even post it on the site.

in the extremely unlikely chance that we get to the end of month three and we have more artists/vidders than stories, we'd be willing to assign the second story an artist as long as it was in compliance with all requirements for first draft stories at that stage.

sorry if that's not the happy news you were looking for, but. this challenge is already about twice as big as we expected it to get, and we're going to have a heck of a time finding enough artists/vidders (just from the polls we had 76 interested authors vs a combined 10 artists/vidders).

we'll be running another round next year (or sooner), so if either of your stories can wait until then, that's another option.

Oh, I'm good with just squeeing about the second one here! I didn't realise you had such a discrepancy in authors vs. artists. Hopefully that'll even itself out. And you know, I guess I don't really need the deadline of a challenge to make me write more femslash, right?

I will totally be signing up for the next round too, y'know. :)
