Signal Boosting: October sign-ups in 2xcreative

I'm turning off comments to my re-post, just to cut down on confusion.

That was the sound of September flying past, about a foot above the corn, which they're already starting to harvest around here. So, who wants to sign up for an autumnal October 2xcreative collaboration?

As always, here's how it works:

- You put your name in the hat by commenting on this post (people without LJ accounts, please make sure to leave an email address!).
- After sign-ups are closed, I get all the names together and perform a feat of randomisation in order to produce a list of pairs, which I post here on the comm.
- You and your partner get in touch with each other to cook up a collaborative creative project, which you will have a month to complete.
- At the end of the month/beginning of next month, you and your partner come back to the comm to show us what you've made.

Sound cool? Okay, go to it! I'll leave the sign-up post open until Friday 30 September, 20:00 my time (GMT+1)).

One thing though - PLEASE only sign up if you intend to follow through on the project. There have been a few occasions recently where people's partners have not showed up. This is a big disappointment, so please, don't do that. Naturally, this doesn't include unexpected occurrences of Real Life, but if something comes up that makes it impossible for you to continue, please let your partner know as promptly as possible. Thanks!

One more thing: LJ has this spiffy new feature, a re-post button! If you'd like to spread the news of the latest 2xcreative sign-ups, you can do so by clicking on the button below and sharing this post on your own journal.

One of the things I'm trying to do with Pinterest is explain my reasoning a little bit. If it's a piece of clothing or an outfit, I say what I like and don't like. If it's a craft idea or a recipe, I try to brainstorm a bit about how I'd make it my own. The only exception is nail polish, where I just note the brand and color name.

I've only been making a point of this recently, so not all of my pins have commentary on them. If you see something on any of my boards you'd like to know more about just ask and I'll try to expand on it.
