It is *definitely* second or third place on my list of worries. I have reconciled myself to the fact that my work will be underdone and that there will be people who simply don't like it. I'm a big girl and will cope.
I have a long list of bookmarks for next week when fandom can be fun again!
But yes, you are very right in that it is bonkers to be working this hard for an arbitrary deadline for a fandom fest. I won't be signing up for anything that has no flexibility on deadlines ever again, it's just not how life, or indeed publishing, works, even though I can see why a mod might be attracted to the concept.
