Remix assignments are here!
Mar. 1st, 2008 03:18 pmAnd my assignment is both ironic and frustrating. The ironic I can't explain until after the reveal, but the frustrating I can talk about--she's a slasher. Almost exclusively. And I'm ... not. Not in the slightest. I'll read slash, if it's good enough and there's a purpose to it besides smut (I don't read het that's nothing but smut, either), but I don't write it. Thankfully, there are some that could easily be genified, where the slash is not key to the plot, but it's hardly ideal. Ah, well, it's better than I had with
gateverse_remix last year. I was spoiled by
remix_redux last year, that's my problem. We don't always get matched up with our favorite writers, alas.
Part of my problem is that I write in too many fandoms--you need to have written a minimum of five non-crossover, non-remix, non-remixed stories in a fandom with a minimum 500 words per story to sign up. I have several fandoms with two qualifying stories, but the only one with five is SG-1. So I'll be assigned to an SG-1 writer, for sure, which means it's fairly unlikely they're gonna choose to remix, say, one of my BSG stories or Batman stories. Since most of the stuff I've written lately is not SG-1, that makes me sad.
