Talk me out of the crazy

[selenay]

Please, someone, persuade me that signing up for tardis_bigbang is a very bad idea. Because I'm seriously considering it and that would be crazy.

Right?

I'm torn. I'm sure I can come up with another idea, but do I want to give my life to it again. :(

*is supremely unhelpful*

What I want to know is whether it has to be a brand new, never ever touched before idea or whether I could use it to get Donna the Time Lord finished. I've only got a couple of pages of that written, but I know what it is and I never seem to actually get around to putting words on the page.

So I'd lose my life to it for a few months, but it could be really worth it.

OTOH, do I want to lose several months to intensively writing a fic where I actually have to put in the action adventure stuff properly in order to reach the word-count?

So torn.

It would be lovely to get some good art work on it and I know that it would be a better fic than it will be if I keep poking away uncertainly at it.

Yes, I love my artwork from my first story.

I'm not sure what I would write for this one. Probably the Sarah/Doctor thing that's been turning around in my head of late.

I don't remember what the criteria were, but I don't think you've written enough that you'd be disqualified from writing that.

I did dread writing out the action-adventure stuff, but it turned out not to be too bad.

Don't tell them that and use it. Last year's I had mostly plotted before I signed up and I don't start writing until I have it all plotted.

I'm torn too. I'm very tempted to sign up on the basis that you can at least drop out, whereas the other way round is harder.

[evil_plotbunny]

This is true.
