Writing frustrations and iconage

[agilebrit]

Yeah, I'm seriously considering dropping out of the UnFicathon. I've got nothin'. Zero, zip, nada. And rather than angsting about it, I'm thinking it's better to admit defeat and stop staring at a blank fic doc, and instead start something that I actually have inspiration for. So. Someone either kick me in the pants and say "Don't drop out! You can do it!" and wave some pompoms, or tell me "It's okay; if you don't have it, you don't have it" and pat me reassuringly on the back. The lyricwheel lyrics gave me a jump-start for several fics, and on that front I'm having a hard time picking just one. Feast or famine...

quotage_icons has a great quote this week and I made four icons for it. Since I can only enter one, I'll post the other three here, plus other icons for random icon comms I'm in and two I did from the first viral marketing thing that are variations on my default icon. And there's one vaguely spoilery one that I'll post just the link to.

BTW, there's a new clip up from the Serenity viral marketing campaign. *sobs* Poor River. It's here. Quicktime required. The masterlist of all the clips is here.

Anyway. Icons:











Vaguely spoilery Serenity icon here.

I added you as a friend. I hope you don't mind.

I have a mission to expose myself to other conservatives without joining a community.

thanks.

Well, HI to you, too! Libertarian, hard right, check, check... friends... check!

I'm glad to meet you, too, and glad to meet you here; as agilebrit will tell you, old-fashioned American citizens who know what 'citizenship' means are somewhat drowned out on LiveJournal, and every new voice helps.

Okay, I'll bite: What's an UnFicathon?

[agilebrit.livejournal.com]

It's a ficathon for orphaned fics. Everytime someone runs a ficathon, there's a certain percentage that never get written for whatever reason. So, the person running this had people post the ones they requested in ficathons that never got done, and had other people sign up that they would write fic. The person who's running it then assigned writers to fic.

And you know what? There's a reason these damb things never got written. *headdesks repeatedly*
