Oh good we're on the eve of another Zutara Week and I have exactly hmmmmm zero things written in advance. Good job, self!!
I mean, I should be working on the fic from 2 years ago that I have neglected buuut that's less fun than throwing concern to the wind and instead writing some short, nonsense oneshots to reconnect to my fandom youth. ZK week was such a critical part of the start of my fandom life. I remember just going through pages and pages of Deviant Art searches, seeing all the new stuff coming up in July, and going "wow, all these people are so committed and so awesome. I want to be like them!"
And then in like... 2010? 2011? I posted my own very first set of ficlets for Zutara Week. They weren't fantastic but they were unique and they were mine.
I want that again this year. Nothing fantastic. Nothing crazy or impressive like the damn piece I WILL finish from 2 years ago. But finished and mine.
Goal: 2 pieces out of the 7 prompts. I can manage that, right?
