Pod Together Signups

General reminder to one and all that today is the last day to sign up as an individual or as a group for pod_together. Some things to consider if you've been hesitating:

• There's no penalty for dropping out if you need to (this is what pinch-hitters are for), so what do you have to lose if you sign up and see how far you can get by the July 7th check in?


• The sheer diversity of Yuletide fandoms reminds us that just about anything can be used as inspiration for a transformative work. From television commercials to YouTube videos, from badass women in history to anthropomorphized academia, your imagination's the primary limit.


• If you find that 1k+ word count intimidating regardless of whether you approach it as one poem or many, why work alone? Comment on this post to find one or more collaborators to write poetry with for the challenge. You can divide the word count and multiply your fun.

I'd be up for collaborating as a writer if people are interested; I tend towards relatively formal constraints and/or lighthearted subject matter. Fandoms I'm relatively active in include Harry Potter, Les Miz (see stuff by primeideal, here: http://archiveofourown.org/collections/MegaMis/works), Schrodinger's Heroes (lots of poems and stuff!) and Animorphs, but there are lots more (http://archiveofourown.org/users/primeideal). (A lot of the rare lit fandoms listed there are things I could only write mockingly, let me know.)

I have a lot of downtime this month but a lot of writing projects too, which is the only reason I'm hesitant. If someone just wants to talk me into writing on my own, reminding me that 1k is not a lot, please do. ;)

There's another poet from here who has signed up, if you want to talk to them about the possibility of co-writing? I've currently got them in two different partnerships, each paired with a different podficcer, and one of the groups includes Harry Potter fandom...

ALSO 1K IS NOT A LOT AND IT WILL PROBABLY BE A SUPER FUN PROJECT, IF YOU WANT TO SIGN UP ON YOUR OWN :D :D :D
