I cannot decide whether to sign up for [livejournal.com profile] sgabigbang! Signups close on the 29th, so I only have a few more days to decide. This is their last year, and I'm very sad at the idea of not being part of the final one. On the other hand, last year was awesome; I had so much fun co-creating the Whaleverse with [livejournal.com profile] naye, and I suspect there's at least a 50/50 chance I'll end up failing to complete my story this year if I do sign up. So maybe it's better for me to go out on a high note than to sign up and fail to meet the goal and never have another chance to redeem myself?

And right now I'm doing a pretty good job at sticking to my original fiction goals, and I don't really want to derail myself. I know from past experience that when I commit myself to doing a ficathon fic, I tend to have trouble working on anything else 'til I finish it; I might think I can work on both a Big Bang fic and an original novel at the same time, but past experience tends to imply that I can't.

Maybe I should sign up as a beta or an artist instead? Or just cheerlead? I would really like to be involved, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to commit myself to a big fic right now.

Oh yeah, I know! But with the fandom currently on a downswing and unlikely to get back up to its previous levels, a new Big Bang would be something different and probably much smaller, especially since this one's been gathering momentum for years. Not to say there'll never be one; I actually do hope there is. But this was the first in the fandom and most likely the biggest that we'll see, and I would like to be involved with its last year in some way.
