It's that time of year again, karaokegal's Third Annual “Come As You’re Not” fanfic costume party.  

Last year I came up with (at the time) terribly atypical costume of a crossover.  It was something I'd never done before and wound up morphing into a 12k epic, a length I've only reached once since (for my bigbang).  But this year, I'm clueless.  Crossovers have become commonplace for me, as have writing in different fandoms other than TW/DW.  I've written dark, slash, AU, even touched on het with a few drabbles.

So, what am I not?  HELP!!!!

Have you written femslash?

no. *eep* I can't really write for women though. I mean, I do, but they tend to be as part of the team or interacting with Jack

When I say "slash" understand that I don't necessarily mean OMG Sex Scenes! Actually - it might be interesting to try something that's just from a female character's POV, not relationshippy or slash at all, if that's something you've never done!

Huh, I was about to say *I've* never written anything shippy, but now I vaguely recall an April Fools Day thing with Jack and Ianto and implied nookie.

I write terrible sex scenes. There's a reason for the fade to black... but female POV? hmmm....

This year's party is being difficult. Last year's costume was so easy. *sigh*
