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?

[clings] The thing is, if I sign up, the one thing I probably won't write is Timbertone! The planned AU is huge, probably more than 20k, but the whole point is to post it in many little parts so that it eats up some of my [livejournal.com profile] fanfic100 prompts.

Unless, of course, I write the deathfic (probably not what anyone wants for a challenge) or make the Joey-and-his-magic-healing-dick crackfic into an epic?

[sigh]

Did I mention I'm not short of bunnies?
