randomling: A wombat. (aah)
I do realize that I must eventually make this decision for myself, but I kind of need to hear opinions on this one...

Should I sign up for [livejournal.com profile] bittybang?

On the one hand, it'd be nice to have the time between the end of JuC Swap and the start of SeSa for my own projects, which wouldn't necessarily be one of the Big-Assed Bunnies on my enormous bunny list (I could use it to plan the vast Timbertone AU of many short parts, or remix Edison, or write epic amounts of very short fiction). And I'm feeling a bit challenged out at the moment, and deadline panic makes me cranky. Although the feeling of relief and happiness when your story is submitted is a very very worthwhile payoff.

On the other hand, I do have several Big-Assed Bunnies that could easily be 20,000 words and it would be really nice to devote my time and energy to one of them. (I'm even spoilt for choice. Should it be the Joey/Nick bodyswap, or the genderswap high school AU, or the angsty Lambs, or the unfinished dragon fic?) And I also partly feel a little bit morally obliged to take part: I'm adamant that popslash isn't dead and keen to put in the effort required to keep it alive, which probably helps to feed my Challenge Fever. I do realize that the entire future of popslash doesn't rest entirely on my shoulders but this is such a cool challenge and I want to help make it a success.

Back to the first hand, I don't want to burn out entirely, and get so annoyed with challenges that I never write popslash again.

Someone give me some advice?

So, I have signed up for Bittybang. But I'm not sure what to write for it, so I'm opening the field up for suggestions. I have a number of bunnies that I could write or I am open to alternative suggestions!

[Poll #1222257]

Some notes:

Beauty Queen has a handful of paras and is probably going to be huge. Like, way more than 20k. Plus it requires huge and scary amounts of research. It's not a front-runner for anything with a deadline, to be honest, but it's here.

Free Association could probably be 20k if it works out the way I want. Plus, it's fun and fluffy and sexy and full of people changing into things.

Some Other Hell Week could certainly be 20k but I'm not sure whether it's got another 20k in it, on top of the 5k I've already got. My abandoned dragon fic. Full of angst and GSF.

The Lambs Angst is a huge, epic, Justin coming-out story, and my story Beautiful is kinda-sorta drawn from the events of it. Aaaaaaaangst. Plus, porn!

AJ/Nick gay marriage would officially by my first Backstreet story ever (I think? Yes, I think so). But the idea of AJ and Nick getting married because they don't want to be the only single guys in Backstreet, and then falling in love, pleases me greatly. Plus this could definitely be 20k.

A Year In The Life is gonna be huge and full of high-drama angsty plot, because it's about high school girls. Affectionately known as "the teenage lesbians", because I'm still a slasher, and well. Yes.
