SlashaBaby 2011 signups now open!

[slashababy-mod.livejournal.com]

Sign-ups for 2011 slashababy -- the LotR RPS story exchange since 2002 -- are now open! A chance to give and get a fanfic gift, and share with the whole fandom!

The rules are the same as previous years -- all participants get an assignment to write for another participant, matched so that everyone has pairings and themes that appeal to them. Each story should be at least 1,000 words, though there is no maximum: some people have written epics (good ones!). The stories are due on Boxing Day, and we'll post them on New Year's Eve. Everyone gets a chance to read the stories and leave comments, including guessing who wrote them, as we won't reveal the authors until January 6.

Check out previous years' stories at slashababy and sign up today!

• Sign-ups start today and end on October 31
• Assignments will be sent out by November 6
• The deadline for submissions is December 26
• Stories will be posted on December 31

Name: Carribbe
Fic link:http://carribbe.livejournal.com/ I have them indexed in my journal -
Email: Carribbe@gmail.com
Requested pairings: Billy/Dom - I do enjoy other pairings as well (Elijah/Dom can be interesting.) I'm just a total sucker for Billy/Dom.
Requested genres:First time scenarios are a favorite, hurt/comfort, 'smut' with angst and emotions.
Pairings and/or genres you absolutely will not write: Definitely no minors - not a fan of violence or torture stuff. Prefer slash to anything else.
Willing to be backup? If backup is a last minute writer - ummm - maybe. Bites fingernails....

Thank you.

I'm sure I'm glad, too. It just feels like a really big step.

I know I love to read these fics - I think it might have been something from just this sort of effort that caught my attention originally years ago. I've been able to read so many good stories over time it's hard to remember though. *grins*
