Dead Bunny Exchange?

[apollinav]

Please feel free to tell me what a monumentally bad idea this is, but it struck me and I thought I'd float it.  There seem to be fic exchanges left/right, for about everything under the sun.  And I'm fully aware that people are burnt out at this point.

What about a Dead Bunny Exchange?  Everyone has 1 or 2 chapters of a fic that went nowhere.  Or maybe you penned a little something and then your Muse gave you the finger.  Whatever.  But how does the idea grab you of exchanging them and having someone else finish your dead plot bunny?  Has anyone ever done this?

Just a thought.

Yeah, I don't have that kind of time either.

I have one I'd put up for adoption. I think someone actually emailed me about it -- I'll have to go back and see. Muse? That bastard hasn't been to visit me in months. I think I scared him off when I tried to handcuff him to my bed. :P

That bastard ran out on you too? Fucking Muses. Next time ward the house first. Eh, I'm aware of adoption, but I was thinking in 'ooh shiny' terms of, 'How cool would it be if someone finished this and I finished theirs, and we could all have a whole bunch of new fics... and wouldn't be easy to finish if half the story was already written...' And it's a logistical nightmare. Aside from the fact that sometimes plotbunnies die for a reason. Sometimes it's just not meant to be.
