Either I am crazy, or soon will be.

You guys.

I kind of wanted to do Yuletide, which I've never done before, except I seem to have gotten bit by the fic bug recently but hard. I told myself I was waaaay too busy. I am way too busy. In the next month I have to write two huge reports and give a final briefing and this week I have to make photobooks and I have tons of Christmas stuff and I don't even know how crazy my music life will be but probably crazy times two for reasons I'll talk about in a separate post if I ever have time again. And my parents are coming in December. And so I was virtuous and ignored nominations, though to be fair I was helped by having a deadline at work at the same time nominations closed.

Aaaaand... now that they're out, there are three fandoms I desperately want to write. Well, there's one I desperately wanted to write, one that I desperately wanted to write once I read a person's Yuletide letter, and one that I would dearly love to write if I can't write either of those. All three of those will also kick my butt (one of the reasons, I suspect, I want to write them).

I think I might sign up. AGH. And regret it around the 20th of December. (and, hopefully, not regret it come Christmas).

But, you know, I should have known this was going to happen, and now I'm really annoyed I ignored nominations, so I can't ask for a Turandot non-fail fic :)

If you want to sign up, no one will stop you. Some of us might watch from the shore, sipping on drinks with pieces of fruit on a stick, but I'm not going to stop you.

Keep in mind that there will always be a need for pinch-hitters on December 23rd. In case you have time on Christmas Eve or something. :-)

(Not signing up. First, Yuletide is the gateway drug. Second - do I need a second? No. But if I did, second would be my average December project fail rate. This is the voice of reason, yep.)

But the point is, I will totally be a cheerleader if you decide you want to sign up!

Heh. Fruit. On little sticks. :)

So totally gateway drug. And I don't think I'd fail at this (I tend to be a bit monomaniacal about such things), but I might fail at other things (or, more likely, do a shoddier job on them than I wanted), and that's not ideal.

Still figuring out! Today I looked at signups and there appear to be other people interested in writing all the fandoms I want to write, which makes me less inclined to do it. But I've been changing my mind at least once a day since before nominations, so we'll see...

Ha. I guess it's priority-ranking time, then. Keep figuring! I look forward to the outcome.

Heh, I guess I never responded to this! Yes, I signed up. And it is eating my brain! But in a good way :)
