Great to have this comm again - it was such a help last year at just making me persist at finishing 'stuff'. Unfortunately, while I did get lots finished, there's still lots hanging over me and I've done the usual new year thing of going 'OOhhh, shiny' to all the challenges that are being posted.

My priorities at the moment are to finish the Mission Impossible/Avengers crossover that is monstrously huge and unfinished,(I've also signed up to WIPbigbang on LJ to try and urge myself on to finishing that one), then I've got 3 different Avengers table which only need to stories in the region of 500-1000 words to complete (although they rarely end up that small). I've also signed up for the cottoncandy_bingo and I'm having tentative thoughts that one of the stories that I couldn't finish last year and I kept knocking it off the list and deciding to abandon it and then putting it back on again, might actually lend itself to this. My current slightly tentative thought is that perhaps it isn't meant to be A story, but that it might more successfully make a series of short snapshots of 'life after' the main arc of the story. Part of my problem was that it never had a definite direction or ending and perhaps this would enable me to use a bunch of the ideas I'd got for it, string them together in a loose arc, without that need for it to be a complete story. It still leaves me with the issue of the third part of the story which hasn't been finished but . . . Works in progress right? That includes the thinking out stage as well as the actual writing bit?

Good luck to everyone else who joins in. May your plot bunnies be corralled and tamed in the year to come!
