I know that I hardly ever comment, but I have enjoyed everything of yours that I have read.

I'm sorry that it feels like no one wants what you write. It's gotta be really frustrating.

But...

Your icon is awesome!

I'm sure that TOTALLY helps, right?

No?

Oh...

How about this?

*hugs*

LOL
Well, it did make me smile, and it's kinda hard to hyperventilate while smiling, so that's good.

*hugs back*

I'm sorry you're panicking. I really am. That's part of the reason that I don't sign up for challenges. I have a lot of preemptive guilt, so I just avoid.

Avoidance: my preferred coping mechanism.

*smirks*

Sigh. Not that it's really effective. I know that I miss out on a lot of good stuff because I avoid things that I feel I might fail at. Since I fear that I'll fail at practically everything.

Wow.

Melodramatic much?

Sheesh. Sorry for rambling. Ignore the poutiness.

And just feel hugged.

*hugs*

I hope that the panic abates!

*stares at your icon*
*wipes away drool*
Yeah, I never signed up for one of these things before. This was a desperate try to kickstart my passion for writing.
I figured, if I was doing it FOR someone, it might give me the kick in the @$$ I needed.
Also, I really like the anonymous thing. I like it that people don't judge a fic by its author. And hey, with the authors that signed up, I'm in the company of giants, so that's....
*hyperventilates again*

Anyway, for the next couple of days, I'm gonna keep my head on Triage. 700 words a day is my goal.

*passes out*

*pets you*

As someone who was initially dismayed with her prompts last year and managed to have an aha moment, I hope that the challenge will induce the same reaction. Part of the dreadful fun of spn_summergen is, I think, seeing what you can do if you get dealt what you consider lemons.

I really liked that the mods posted a 'help' post, with ways to look at prompts that don't speak to you. It did help a little.

For me, it wasn't the dealing with 'lemons', it's the anonymity. Love the idea!

*hugs you*
