So, we've established I'm crazy, right?

Who here has heard of 3 Day Novel? If you haven't, it's a novel writing contest (to get your novel published) where you have 3 days, over the Labour Day long weekend to write a novel.

I tried doing it 2 years ago (well, I was writing fanfic, so I wasn't participating in the actual contest part of it, just using the atmosphere and challenge to get some writing done). While I didn't finish the story I was writing I did manage to get 10K of it written over the weekend, it was pretty awesome.

There's going to be mad writing at the house this year for it, and I'm thinking trying it again myself.

Except, the thing is (and you guys may have noticed this ;) I'm more of a podficcer than I am a writer. So I was thinking of changing it from a 3 day novel writing weekend, so a 3 day novel podficcing weekend! I want to get at least 10K read and edited in a weekend!

Anyone want to join me?

you have a reputation for running sign-ups on everything *g*
Well, there's that too. :P

For me, it's emerging as the only reason, more often than not, that I ever get any podfic done. So you know, hooray, at least I am making podfic!
I sooo get that. I redid my webpage this week and it was a little depressing to realize just how many of my fanworks were made for a challenge of some kind. So far this year I've made 16 podfics. Only one of those wasn't finished for a challege, comm or other obligation. And, actually, that one was a birthday present, so that might fall under "other obligation."

Of the 56 fanworks I've made since joining fandom, only 18 of those weren't done for a comm of some sort. Almost 70% of my fanworks were made because of some kind of challenge. /o\

This is probably why I run so many comms, they're what keep me producing. ;)

I know *exactly* what I want to record for this project.
Awesome! I don't actually know what I'll record. My to-podfic list is soooo long that I don't even know where to start. Do you think it would be cheating to work on a WIP podfic I have going? Because I've really been wanting to work on orbedrowned lately.

Or! If I want to start a "unique" project that'll still get me through my WIP folder, I can do Forbidden City the next fic in the Becoming a Universe Within series that I started recording earlier this year...

There's also a crazy Kradam mpreg fic I've been wanting to record ever since I read it...

Decisions, decisions.

If you're really stuck, roll the appropriately sided die :D (No need to stick to the results if they strike you as "wrong". That's useful information in and of itself \o/)

This is probably why I run so many comms, they're what keep me producing. ;)
Yes and no for me! Mostly no. As a personal project (and remember, that was how it originally came into being), ReMoPodMo has been an absolute FAILURE. But I've inspired lots of other people to podfic! So it's a win! But personally, I have a terrible time modding and participating. Multitasking fail.
