December already?

I am once again doing the WIP challenge at writethisfanfic this month, and the good news is I forced myself to work on the story last night. The bad news is, I took out more words than I put in, so I am starting off with a negative word count. Hopefully I'll be making up for that by this weekend. Which reminds me, we don't know the December fic_rush weekend yet, do we? I think I'm going to need it again to pull me out of this hole I keep putting myself into.

Not doing Yuletide, but I did hang up a stocking at fandom_stocking. It seems like a fun community, although it does feel a little awkward to advertise my stocking -- like I'm shilling for gifts or something. However, since there are umpteen gazillion stockings, I will go ahead and point mine out for any of you who are so inclined as to stop by: my stocking is here.

I've been going through the extras on the S5 boxset, and so far I am disappointed by the commentaries and the video diaries. Although it was slightly amusing to see the in-vision commentary for Time of Angels and notice the amazing amount of awkwardness between Steven Moffat and Karen Gillan. Can we please get David Tennant back in there, just for a commentary or two? Or Colin Baker? I bet he'd have some great things to say. So would Peter Davison. In fact, I think I'm going to have to go re-rent Arc of Infinity to remind myself of what a good commentary sounds like.

Hope everyone's December is going well so far, and to those of you who celebrate, happy Hanukkah!

I think the magic of Yuletide is actually getting matched with someone who can write a really obscure fandom. The odds of that one person coming across your stocking are pretty small, so most people went for the bigger fandoms. That's what I did, anyway. Although SJA is a Yuletide fandom this year, so it sort of counts?

No poll up yet for fic_rush, unfortunately. I think lolmac might be in the middle of her cross-country move. I agree, though, a December round would be really useful, and it's better if it happens earlier rather than later. But it takes a fair amount of work to organize a round, so if December isn't working out for the mods, I completely understand.

Do you want to join me and pitry in a mini-fic_rush / mutual journal spamming session this weekend?

Heh. I'm there! :-)

I was writting some random things and I've remembered that I am actually supposed to be sorting out the next Prompt of the Month... Heh.
