Are you planning on writing "canon", AU* or crossover (with what?)?: either AU or canon with heavy focus on the similarities between Parker and River

Are you thinking of writing gen, het or slash?: mainly slash

If a pairing/moresome might be involved, which characters would it include (possibly)?: Nate/Eliot, Parker/Hardison

[charlies_dragon]

Thanks for this hun, glad to see you all signed up. I can't wait to read what you write :)

20,000 words? That's a lot! The other Big Bang I'm participating in is only 10,000.

Are you planning on writing "canon", AU* or crossover (with what?)?: Crossover with BTVS/AtS
Are you thinking of writing gen, het or slash?: Het
If a pairing/moresome might be involved, which characters would it include (possibly)?: Faith the Vampire Slayer and Eliot Spencer

[charlies_dragon]

It may seem a lot but when you compare it to the original BigBang that had a minimum of 50,000 words for the rough draft, I think 20,000 is quite reasonable, right? Also, from the research I did just over a year ago, the majority of the BigBang communities that were/are still active had/have a minimum word count of 20,000 for the rough draft.

It's totally up to you if you want to join in or not, and if you feel that 20,000 words is just too much to commit to, then feel free to join the rest of us non-writers in our wait for the fics that'll be posted in November :)

[charlies_dragon]

Ooh, now this I'm interested in reading :) Thanks for signing up.

Are you planning on writing "canon", AU* or crossover (with what?)?: I'm not sure. It's between an AU of Parker being from a mob family and a crossover sequel of a White Collar/Leverage fic I wrote. Or a crossover sequel of a House/Leverage fic I wrote. It's really up in the air.
Are you thinking of writing gen, het or slash?: Het and Slash.
If a pairing/moresome might be involved, which characters would it include (possibly)?: Nate/Sophie because I cannot write fic without having them be adorable, possible Parker/Hardison, and possible Eliot/Cameron if I go with that sequel from the House/Leverage fic.
