heeeey...

remember that White Christmas fic-a-thon I want to have? Anybody got any opinions on when we should do that?

What I was thinking of doing was have a sign-up place where people can sign up and also leave as many prompts as they want. Then on or before the due date people post the fic they've written, even if they didn't sign up in the first place. And if you sign up but don't end up writing, we aren't going to punish you because how would we even do that?

Is that too loose an approach? How much time should pass between sign-ups and due date? Anybody got any thoughts on this? I've run lots of comment fic-a-thons in the post, but not so much this sort of thing.

Any time after this week would be swell for me. And no idea how to run a ficathon whatsoever, but I am hft whatever you decide.

sounds good to me! if a standard comment ficathon is easier for you i'd be down for that, but this seems like a sound plan too.

Now that I've got my-- oh. Wait. Reveals are after all fics are posted.... oops. Oh well, I don't mind spoiling my own fic. Anyhow: now that my bigbang fic is up I would love to be part of a White Christmas writing thingy!
