Reducing the Load

[kerravonsen]

I've just realized that I've been committed to far too many things this year, and in the interest of not burning out, I'm going to drop a few of them.

To wit:

- forget about the "NOT The Last of the Time Lords" ficathon. If people want one, they can organize it themselves.
- Next year, the only ficathon I'm going to organize is the finish-a-thon. No GenRemix, and no Multi-Fandom-Lyric-Wheel. Again, if people want them, they can organize it themselves.
- The only major ficathon I intend to participate in next year (besides the finish-a-thon) is Multiverse. Minor ones that come up, I'll consider on a case-by-case basis. I still have 90-odd stories to write for crossovers100, anyway.
- Due to visiting vilakins next month, I'm taking a month off from running icon_style.
- I'll probably also extend the deadline for the finish-a-thon, but I don't want to announce that until I'm more certain.
- Next year, I'll probably make August and September "holidays" in icon_style, due to people concentrating on naarmamo in August, and being "all arted out" from that effort and needing to take a break in September.
- I may or may not participate in glarmaco.
- I will continue to probably not participate much in b7friday.

I do still intend to participate in naarmamo next year; I do think it is worthwhile. Likewise, I'm still really enjoying running icon_style: I find both those things stretching my art skills. I also do intend to continue to participate in the "one B7 episode a week" thing on the Lyst.
