It's nearly the start of the hlh_shortcuts secret santa (posting starts tomorrow). I'm really excited to read all the new stories this year. I managed to get mine in too (a little past the deadline) I did wonder at some points whether I'd be able to do it this year but in the end I got a complete story. Without giving any hints as to which one I wrote... I was really happy with my assignment this year, I got to play around with some ideas I'd had brewing for awhile and never got as far as writing, so it was nice to have the push to do it.
I haven't really been very active in LJ or fandom in general recently and I'm hoping finally finishing off a new fic will help inspire me to get back into the game.
Anyway for anyone on my flist who has ever enjoyed any highlander this week would be a great time to try reading some fic. This exchange always has some fantastic writing, and usually includes a far number of great crossovers if highlander is not your first love. It all kicks off tomorrow
