i did not actually have a full house last year, and i'm willing to accept more folk this year. so we'll see. but i think it is a good time of year for a fest. sign ups are right after the fabulous december fest season, when people are all excited about how wonderful fests can be, but the actual work is afterwards and the posting comes when no one else is doing a fest. at least, that's the logic. ;)
as for not wanting to join in, i completely understand! i have pretty much sworn off participating in fests myself, as i seem to write crap for them. (eros excluded, i was very pleased with the way and your damage done (http://archive.skyehawke.com/story.php?no=16408) came out. it is worth noting that i turned it in extremely late!)
of course last year i signed up for beltane and did at least one pinch hit, and i expect to pinch hit for the fest again, but that is different, i think, there is a lot more picking and choosing involved in pinch hitting for one's own fest!
i've been pimping the fest like mad, myself. i hope you mean that others have been posting about it. that would be wonderful! i hope you'll mention it to your flist, actually. you have a nice large one.
