I blame Astro

So I was just saying to sg_fignewton that I don't do so well at ficathons; I might be interested in an SG-1 Alphabet Soup, but I'd really have to see.

Then astrogirl2 reminded me of matrithon, a ficathon for stories about women over 40, on which I've been keeping an eye. I didn't mean to sign up. I was just looking at the prompts. Then one grabbed me.

Um, anybody here willing to beta a fifth-season DS9 story? It's a 500-word minimum, and I think for once I won't be hugely over (well, time will tell), because I took the prompt because I read it and could already feel the story. The main character is Julian Bashir's mother.

And now we have to get the disk from Netflix, because I haven't seen that episode since, oh, 1997, so I'd better rewatch it. But I have until the start of October! I can do this!

Because I really needed to write for just one more fandom.
