So I was talking with [livejournal.com profile] cherelle_holmes, and she mentioned one of those contests where artists have to lock themselves in a room for twenty-four hours and draw a twenty-four page comic or doujin. Some of you might have heard of them? Well, I got to thinking...

Is there anything like that out there for writers?

And please don't say NaNoWriMo. That's not what I mean XD I mean like a one-day thing, where you write a certain number of words in a twenty-four hour period. If there is, where might I find such a creature? If there isn't...am I the only one who thinks it could be INSANELY fun/challenging?

If you think I'm a crazy person by now, you can go ahead and tell me. I won't think any less of you ^_~ And in case you hadn't noticed, I'm a total nerd for challenges. I guess I like things that make me think or push me.

Except NaNoWriMo. That just hit at a really bad point in my life, I tried to do it at the worst possible time, and while I might be able to face it in a few years, right now I can barely think about it without associating it with my senior year borderline-nervous breakdown D:

So yeah. That's sort of what I'm thinking about as of late...although the challenge for me would be to write just ONE long fic in that period of time. My thing would be more like UPDATE EVERYTHING AND ADD UP THE WORD COUNT, WHEE!! Because...yeah. Lord knows I don't post enough on some of those.

...why is everyone looking at me all funny?

If all goes well, there'll be ficcage up tonight. Probably [livejournal.com profile] 30_ways. After that...I dunno. Have enough plunnies bouncing around for [livejournal.com profile] fanfic100 to get me to probably fic #52 or #53, maybe even #54. I'd have to count. Oh, and I now have TWO PLUNNIES EACH for Ouran and Princess Tutu. TWO! COUNT THEM, TWO! *headdesk* Where are these ideas coming from, for corn's sake? Oh well. Figure one for each series will find itself hurtling into [livejournal.com profile] 100fandomhell :D

And in other news, I am so tired and stressed and worried about everything under the sun that I think I might be making myself sick. I seriously thought I was going to throw up during choir last period. And then having a little showdown with a couple of my students? Didn't help. Really didn't help...god, I seriously feel sick... *crawls into the nearest lap and mewls for pettings and comfort*

Because I like the group aspect of things :D And also, it would feel a little bit like a competition, and I can be extremely competitive, which helps ^_^
