please help Liz decide what to write

[edenfalling]

I have no internal motivation whatsoever at the moment, so I am requesting help with external motivation in hopes that it will prove somewhat more effective. Normally this would take the form of a mini-ficlet prompt meme, but I'm going to try something slightly different this time.

Namely, I will list several WIPs that have been languishing for a good long while, all of which should take less than 5000 words to complete. (Or complete the current chapter, at any rate.) I would like you to tell me which one I should try to finish by next Friday.

Here they are:

Thank you to everyone who voted! I will buckle down and get to work on "Guardian" ch. 17 starting on Saturday the 20th. :)

(The next week is reserved for my Palestuck assignment, but after that I will tackle "A Question of Familiarity". And after that, I may make another poll...)

Thanks! :)

I will be working on "Guardian" this week, but since "A Question of Familiarity" was the clear runner-up, I will tackle it next (after a break to complete my Palestuck assignment, of course, because deadlines).

Yay! :) I look forward to reading both of them when they're finished. You can do it! :)
