Right, so there's a Merlin Big Bang Challenge over at [livejournal.com profile] boxofmagic (15000-35000 word fic before July).

I am SO tempted, especially since that's a realistic timeframe (and after March I'm working on my dissertation so have much more control over how I organise my time).

Now, the question is:

Shall I have a go at writing my currently pretty neglected Epic Fic (the one I've been on about for ages and you haven't actually seen any serious evidence of it) for the challenge OR will I get myself into all sorts of tangles doing that (since I have clearly overthought this fic into oblivion) and pick a straightforward and fun scenario to write for the challenge and run with it?

This is me musing, rather than a poll or anything, but I'd love comments and opinions.



(Note: My Epic Fic is currently organised in to three parts - it's essentially a trilogy. The challenge stipulates it must be a complete fic, so I would probably have to write all three parts - which would be significantly over 35k)

Update on the below: I have signed up for [livejournal.com profile] boxofmagic. Don't know yet what I will be writing, but I'm sure it will be fun!

(I signed up for section four = 35 000 words)
