It's my first time joining this bang, too. I was drawn to it as soon as I saw the announcement post, because I have a drawerfic WIP that I've been on the fence about posting, and this seems like a golden opportunity to let it see the light of day.
But I'm finding myself getting more critical about my story in the process of transcribing it into an actual typed draft. For one thing, I have to put the scenes into some kind of concrete order, which I hadn't worked out in detail before. And I'm worrying more about whether the scenes fit with the canon timeline, too. And maybe the fic needs a better ending than the one I have? - If anyone else is starting with a WIP, do you feel like moving into fic challenge mode is changing how you think about it?
