I hope I'm still allowed an introductory post, given I hadn't decided until today whether I was going to be doing Picowrimo, or not. But since I need to angst and bite my nails, or feel proud of my pitiful achievements somewhere... :)

Last month, despite a certain amount of writer's block, and a certain amount of dissatisfaction with what I have written lately, I decided I would sign up to not one, not two, but - yes, count them - three ficathons. *sigh* I get all carried away with enthusiasm until I start trying to produce the goods, whereupon it trickles from me in some disgustingly goopy metaphor. Still.

I have to produce at least a 1000 words for undermistletoe by 5th December, for slashababy by 10th December and for yuletide by 19th December. I'm hoping to write at least two of these fics by the end of the month. In my defence I've started on the slashababy one, and have written 1934 words in the last week. I'm aiming for about 500 words a day (because, frankly, I've never just written 1000 words for a ficathon) so as you can see, I'm already a bit behind...
