The 2010 Good Omens Holiday Exchange is OPEN!
Happy September, Good Omens Holiday Exchange participants!
It’s time to innovate. The Good Omens Holiday Exchange is in its 6th year. While we love the fic, the art, and all that’s in between, we mods have opted to try something new. Don’t worry. It’s easy. And it’s going to yield great fic, art, and who knows what else. What’s new is that we think you should decide what gift you’d like to create. There are specific instructions below -- but, here’s the gist: you reply to this post with your requested gift prompts. Then, you read all the other gift ideas and from those, you select the gift that you’d like to create! You tell us what you want to create in a screened post, so everyone still gets a holiday surprise from a secret gifter! That’s it. See? Easy.

4. By September 28th (in exactly 2 weeks!), reply to this LINKED POST with your selection. Give us your top pick and two alternates.

Here is an example of how to leave a prompt:
1. PAIRING/PLOT BUNNY/RATING CHOICE ONE: Adam/Lucifer, Lucifer watches Adam wank after a particularly cruel mind-fuck, NC-17 (simplified art prompt: Adam/Lucifer, dark)
PAIRING/PLOT BUNNY/RATING CHOICE TWO: Aziraphale/Crowley; Human AU where Aziraphale is a medieval history professor and Crowley needs just one more class to finish up the degree he gave up ten years ago. Crowley's not interested in the class, but he is in the professor after walking into his office fifteen minutes early one day and watching him wank. Does Crowley want to graduate or does he want the teacher more? Can he have both? And what's the huge skeleton in Aziraphale's closet? R to NC 17 (simplified art prompt: Professor Aziraphale/Student Crowley)
PAIRING/PLOT BUNNY/RATING CHOICE THREE: Anathema/Sookie Stackhouse/Amelia Broadway, crossover with Sookie Stackhouse novels, Anathema tries something new and finds herself in Bon Temps, can be gen or femslash! PG-13 to R (simplified art prompt: Anathema/Trueblood character)
I LIKE THESE STORY ELEMENTS/KINKS: I like humor, crack!fic, and snarky dialogue. I like irony. I LOVE tension. I also like resolution, so please don’t leave me hanging! I like dirty words, solo wanks, voyeurism, and shower!sex.
I DISLIKE THESE STORY ELEMENTS/KINKS: I don’t like fluff or hurt/comfort. I'm not fond of the word "pussy" unless it's used a humorous way.
