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!

It is just about the most awkward thing ever isn't it? (I mean, hanging your virtual stocking out in public... not the commentaries, though they may be, but I haven't seen them), but I figured that with the bazillion and one stockings (all of which seem to be in the Who category, yeah!) if I didn't point it out no one who wanted to find it ever would.

I keep missing fic_rush. It's kind of annoying, because I know the date, mark it down, and really enjoy it but... *grumpy face* Maybe this will be the month!

Happy holidays!

Yeah, it's definitely awkward! But there really are so many stockings, you do have to tell people, or else there isn't much point to it -- you'll just have a stocking sitting there that no one knows about. Besides, I appreciate it when other people mention where their stockings are -- I like looking at what my flist is requesting, even if I can't help out -- so hopefully other people feel the same way about mine.

*crosses fingers for you for fic_rush*

Happy holidays to you, too!
