[Bunny #3] Bunny Management

[kalloway]

Just a reminder - this is your community, too. Feel free to use it to ask for advice, vent, commiserate, celebrate, etc.


So. We've been here all month. \o/ We have made our shiny lists and looked at our shiny lists and a few of us have possibly even despaired a bit over our shiny lists before remembering they are shiny lists of awesome things we're gonna write/draw/create/etc.


Let's talk about how things end up on those lists this week.

What makes you add a plotbunny/project/idea to your list and keep it there? Do you write mostly for bingos/exchanges/challenges? Do you take requests? What inspires you? Do you maaaaaybe keep a few more ideas than you should or realize they need a little (or a lot) more work to become a proper story?


And since we're at the last post for the month, it's time for list revision. You are free to look over your list and remove anything that you've realized isn't working for you. There is nothing wrong with keeping all your bunnies, of course, but it is also okay to let go.


This is also a weekly check-in! You do not have to check in, of course, but if you would like to comment on the last week, feel free!


If you have a deadline coming up, you can do it! If you need a deadline, feel free to ask!

Re: Bunny list and word count

I know what you mean about feeling mortal. I've pretty much admitted to myself that I can't possibly write all the things that I want to, so I keep moving things to an 'abandoned' list with the idea that they'll still be there if I suddenly run out of other things to write.

I can't seem to make that leap.

Dunno why... maybe I just think that the longer my 'to do list,' the more time I'll have to get it done? (This is patently untrue, and my brain supplies that information regularly, but it doesn't STICK.)

It's kind of depressing to do, but a lot of my bunnies are things I looked at and thought, "Yeah, someone should write that," rather than things I had a definite urge to write. I think that makes putting them aside easier.

I've also started a list of things that I want someone else to write but know with certainty that I could never manage.
