Ahah. [livejournal.com profile] writerinadrawer is up. Last five out of fifty writers. And every single time voting goes up, I get more and more spazzy than the last time. *Grin*

If anyone wants to vote, the entries post is here, the voting post here. They're five things fics, which are always fun, and it's anonymous, so if you vote me out, I won't know about it.

My glasses broke yesterday. Just one of the nose pieces, but it won't go back on and stay, and it's really irritating. So I asked my dad if my health insurance covers new glasses, and if it does, Evie is so taking me out to get that done on her next day off. I really hope it does, because... annoying nose piece breakage aside, I think I need a new prescription. Just slightly. And I've had these glasses since the last time I lived in Tampa, which was... a while ago.

I think now I'm going to go get coffee, and then poke at some of my Rift characters to see if anyone but Gwen wants to make a post. I know Sam does, but that may just be because he wants a Gene, and I'm not sure that can be arranged just yet.

If I had time to run a new comm, I would actually consider starting one. It really is an awesome idea. The only problem with a multifandom comm of that sort is that voting would be HELL, because it's so hard to get people to read fic that's not in their fandoms, and you'd just know there would be some people who'd just vote for fics in their fandoms rather than the best fic overall... It's bad enough in WIAD getting people to vote for pairings they don't share - or not to vote against pairings that are generally hated just because it is that pairing, regardless of the quality of the writing.

True.

Bah. Iiiiiii still want to try this. *makesaface*

... you know, if you wanted to do, say, a Rift one, I'd run it for you all.

I know. There HAS to be a way to make it work. Somehow.

Oh my God, don't TEMPT me. Though that would be AWESOME and... Mmmph. I may mention that to some of the others and see what they think about it. Because OH MY GOD IT IS FUN.

*teeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeempts*

It would be shorter because there's less people in the Rift, and, well, yeah.

Also.... yeah. I'm totally objective because I don't know anything! I don't even get a vote!

*Flailyhands* Foul temptress! I'll mention it to Evie when she gets back and see what she thinks. And then prod the people most likely to participate and see what THEY think... Damn it, why are almost none of my kids around now? It's almost 5:00!
