So, was thinking very strongly that I shouldn't sign up for Chocolate Box this year as it's probably a SIGN that it's due on the same day as this massive work project I've been complaining and procrastinating about.
But am going away with the fam for 10 days next week and I really, really didn't want to have to work on my work project while I'm away so I fell over my line in the sand and buckled down and am now mostly done, and absolutely plan to have it submitted before we fly out.
So I've signed up for Chocolate Box, requesting the same half a dozen fandoms I mix and match every year at Yuletide/rare pair exchanges (okay my Swedish film is new last Yuletide but I expect it to be just as obscure - I did get a nice little Madness treat...from the same writer who wrote the lone fic on AO3). I've received my assignment and although I only matched on one fandom I offered, there's several others I could write with a bit of canon review, am feeling spoilt for choice :)
And have also discovered Fandom Trumps Hate auction, for donations to activist/resistance type charities, so have signed up for that too because there's plenty of time to write for that. You're only allowed to volunteer three fandoms so I've just listed my three main ones, none of which were on the existing 'popular fandoms' list... so if anyone would like me to write them a Whitechapel, Sense8 or Lewis fic, feel free to buy me, I guess *g*
