Down to the wire (again) with Yuletide

[carbonel]

Every year, I have such good intentions for Yuletide. I'll get it done early, I think. Maybe I'll even pick up a pinch-hit. And every year, I'm still writing away in the last few days. I just finished the first draft of this year's story, 24 hours to the minute before the deadline. It's off to my beta reader, who will give me edits tomorrow.

No real message here, just a vast relief that it's done in time. And I really do intend to finish earlier next year.

But I probably won't.

Heh. I understand this. I posted my Yuletide story on Wednesday, but just finished the Pros story due today last night. It might be that I need deadlines…

Yay for finishing the draft and good luck with the edits!

Yuletide absolutely terrifies me. I would love to be competent enough to do it, but it looks complicated in organisation and frightening to try to do.

...but I love reading the results!
