Three-day weekend. Mmmm. Three full days with no obligations or plans of any kind. I'm going for full fannish immersion. Especially with the next show kicking into gear, making this my last free weekend for the foreseeable future, and quite possibly my last full day off of any kind until Thanksgiving. (I'm keeping my fingers crossed for one rehearsal-free Saturday or Sunday in October, but trying not to get my hopes up.) So. Three days of pure, unadulterated fannishness for me. I already completed one vid this morning, am hoping to get another one mostly done by Monday night as well, for [community profile] ladiesbigbang. That's all due October 1, but again, won't have much free time this month, especially not for vidding. Writing I can do at my day job, at least; vidding, not so much.

I also want to start properly working on the sequel to the epic XMFC/Inception fusion. I've written the first couple of scenes and mostly hashed out the overall plot structure, but I'd like to make significant progress on the first chapter this weekend. I'm partly hampered by the fact that the original fic is still in beta -- it feels weird to poke at a sequel when the first fic hasn't officially been posted yet, even though the first draft has been up on the kinkmeme for weeks already. And without the self-imposed obligation to post a new scene daily on the kinkmeme, I'm writing at a MUCH slower pace, ugh. But yeah. I also need to figure out posting etiquette for WIPs, since that's something I've traditionally avoided. Unlike the original fic, which I posted one scene at a time (generally 1-2k words each), I'm going to post this on AO3 in chapters (at least 5k words each; though knowing me, maybe closer to 10k). So do I get each part beta-ed before posting? (Probably wise.) Who the hell would be willing to beta a work in progress one chapter at a time? Do I spam all the fic comms every time I post a new chapter, or wait until the whole thing is complete? OPINIONS. I AM SOLICITING THEM.

But yeah. This was a good summer for me, fandom-wise. I'll miss my free time when rehearsals kick back in. Normally I thrive a bit on the constant chaos and become depressed and restless between shows, but having a fandom completely eat my brain like XMFC filled the time marvelously. Oh, well, I'll just have to use what little time I have more effectively, I guess. ♥
