Official Drop-Out Post & Cheerleader/Beta Request

[ariestess]

Real Life ^(TM) always seems to have a way of inserting itself into the best of intentions and plans. Case in point, both havocthecat and I have been hit with pretty heavy doses of medically based RL.

If you need to drop out, for ANY reason, this is the best place to do it. We don't need to know the reason at this point, just that you're needing to drop out. Since we haven't assigned complements yet, this is a case of "no harm, no foul".

The people who have contacted me prior to this via PM, you're already taken care of in our spreadsheet of information.

Also, if you know of anyone who is willing to be a cheerleader and/or beta for the creators in thelittlebang, please feel free to also leave a comment to that effect here. We are running at a serious deficit of cheerleaders/betas to creators.

Thanks in advance!

hey!! just dropping in to say i missed a few of the initial posts re. sharing about your work and cheering for each other, because i was in the middle of a move and lacked internet, but i'm still participating and working on my LB.

also--sending good vibes to both of you! sorry to hear about your health issues.

[ariestess]

Woohoo! Glad to hear you're still playing!

And thank you on the vibes. I know I appreciate it, and I'm sure havocthecat does, too.

hey mods of awesome,

it makes me so sad to do this, but i am gonna hafta drop out afterall. my fic turned into an epic huge thing and i don't have the time to make it the story it needs to be in time to have a rough draft done by the 12th. it's currently 20k and i feel like i'm getting into it. it'll probably clock in at like 50k, and i just can't finish that this year given the craziness of work. :( i've talked about it with my beta and stepping out of the little bang seems like the best thing to do for the piece and for me.

i can jump in as a pinch hitter for betaing/cheerleading for anything under 20k, if you still have need for that.

you have been awesome mods, i hope to actually be able to turn something out for future challenges you mod. ♥

Ahh, that's a bummer! But I totally can understand where you're coming from on it.

And yes, definitely hoping you can play if we do this again next year.

thanks for the kind words <3 and i'm all for another round of this this year, despite my dropping out. ♥

You're welcome. As someone who's had to drop out of a few 'bangs already this year [for various reasons], I can totally get the whole hating to drop out despite it being needed thing.
