i blame Katie

[tinpra]

Why do I blame Katya? Because in the guise of helping her not take on a new challenge, not only did she still take on the challenge (admit it, you were always gonna go for it. i was just a ruse :P) she somehow convinced me to sign up to. That's it. I'm certefiable. A word that I apparently can't even spell. Anywho, in true lieuietak fashion, I plan on taking someone down with me. The challenge: Write 26 fanfics based on alphabetical prompts. There are 4 "word lists" - as they call them - two non-themed, one with a Mood theme and one with a Mythology theme. The community: alphabetasoup. The selling points: There are sooooooo many things open! Fandoms, characters, you name, they likely got it. For all my LFNers...the entire show is up for grabs (move it Diane!). Plus, and this was actually convinced me, over and above Katie's reverse psychology, if you slack for 4 months they drop you. So for any of us kookie kids who've taken up fanfic100 and are wondering how we're going to make it to story 2 (or in my case story 7) let alone story 100, at least you know that if you let it go the other challenge hanging over your head like that famous sword will eventually go away on its own. Of course I might be the only slacker on my friend's list :P

Anyway, so there you have it. On top of the 90-some-odd stories I still haven't written. So now would be a good time to [re]mention that I've created a separate lj for my penname under which I'll be doing both the AlphaBeta fics and all my other fanfics. I think I'm going to let my lj-community drop because, really, what's the point when I doubt they'll be other posters. So add me! I'm tvashti. Nothing's there right now. Like I don't think it's even got the layout I want to use, and it's a plus account so I apologize for the ads even now. I may, gulp, pay for an account.

Ha. I really actually hadn't planned on bringing all of humanity (okay, two people) down with me. In fact, I didn't even know the challenge existed until I was already talking to you so there wasn't any time to plan.

But yay for being approved! :-)

Reporting in, as requested(?). So I joined the alphabetasoup community. This is NOT, however, a committment to write ANY more LFN fics (though I probably will *sighs heavily* eventually. Happy now?
