22 – Have you ever participated in a fest or a Big Bang? If so, write about your favorite experience in relation to one. If not, are there any you've thought about doing? And if not, why not?
Nope, never.
Oh, wait.
I did my first fest in 2011 and haven't looked back. These days, I do between 10-15 fests/exchanges a year.
I've only done two Big Bangs, both of which were very early in my Fandom Round 2 days. The first was "The Measure of Ourselves," which was supposed to be for the first Teen Wolf Big Bang, until the Bang fizzled out and disappeared, and which is part of why the story also fizzled out. The second was "Zero Point," which was for the Werewolf Big Bang. I gave some thought to throwing in with the most recent round of the Teen Wolf BB, but htbthomas talked me out of it.
My favorite experience was during the 2013 Yuletide when htbthomas finagled her assignment to get assigned to me, then wrote me a story for My Secret Identity. And she didn't just write me any story--she wrote very nearly the exact story I'd spent twenty years wanting in that fandom and hadn't been able to write for myself. It was absolutely brilliant.
