Challenges! The foxmonkey fear of deadlines challenge!

OK! Got my assignment for the Secret Santa DanceBoy Insanity Challenge (also known as Don We Now Our Gay Apparel). Now I'm going to delve deep into her thought processes and write the definitive [insert secret Christmas!danceboy fic instructions here] for her.

In other news, I'm also involved in the DanceBoy Castle Insanity Challenge (also known as Never After - A Castle Challenge). I'm going great guns, because I've started the story, I know where it's going (I think) and how it ends (uh, maybe, I think). And I've already whipped up a title graphic and fancy page for it! Woohoo! So now, I just need to actually *write* it.

It's due Monday.

Feel free to mock me.

Aiii! Castles and insanity challenges!

Taking a break from writing. I've been writing and reading all day. And listening to Cry Me a River on repeat for like a thousand times (love that sooo much), and now Blowin' Me Up.

This is my first AU, and it's a bit of a challenge, no pun intended. I'm keeping it on the short side so as not to embarrass myself.

Speaking of embarrassing myself, I surfed by my DanceSanta!fic victim's recipient's page to get some ideas. Eeee! I'm glad I'm not alone in my nervousness; I've perused LJ, and it seems that at least a few others are as nervous as I am about their assignments. Once the Castle challenge is safely tucked away I'll be able to concentrate on the Santa one. And jchalo, that over-achiever, has finished her Santa!fic already. Finished!!! Some people just need to be spanked.

Watch this space for future Santa!fic freakouts. ;-)
