Soliciting opinions from y'all before I take this over to myriadwords.

It actually just occurred to me that I won't have a fic challenge for this summer to hand in next fall, as seems to have become my usual mode of operation.

I think since we are a teeny tiny fandom, we all know each other, pretty much. So, basically, guilt goes through the roof if you do a giftfic exchange. I rather like the idea, myself. I'm always much more likely to only get it in a few days late if it's for someone. However, it is a bit of bad timing for giftfic. Perhaps a fall drabble/drawble challenge, then do giftfic right after Christmas, say in feb after everything has calmed down and we can all enjoy a late Christmas prezzie? And I can write it on the plane...

Re: the signups, just have people state their preferred type (although I think all the slash we'll be getting will be Tom/Carl) of fic, pairings they like (if they so choose), if they want art or fic, if they'll do art or fic, and the suchlike, and then we just match people up the best we can from there.

If you want to test out the waters first on something smaller, a drabble/drawble exchange might be just the ticket. Thoughts?

And, as always, I'd be happy to help in the setup and running.
