DearSanta Christmas exchange - time to sign up!!!
It's the DearSanta deadline imminently for the usual, low pressure fic/art exchange. It's small, multi-fandom (though all participants must be willing to write/draw in a common fandom - Harry Potter - to help with matching people up with a secret Santa) and for writers only has a minimum of 500 words. The deadline is today, I think, but I'm sure anyone signing up in the next 24 hours will be welcome.
All the details are here:

And this year it's running on Dreamwidth too!!!!

Needless to say, I've signed up again this year, even though I'll probably stress a lot about the lack of writing time. But the reason I do so is that it's a friendly exchange, challenges me to write - last year's was the first time I wrote a non-HP fic (nearly). And I've generally loved what others have written for me in the past:
2008/09: Revisions (Harry/Padma)
2007/08: Practical Experience (Harry/Parvati/Kingsley genfic)
2006/07: Twenty-Four (Ron/Padma PG-13)
2005/06: The Haunting of Malfoy Manor (Harry/Parvati NC-17)
2004/05: Fireworks (Harry/Parvati NC-17)
2003/04: Midwinter Waking (Harry/Cho)
Also 2003/04: Grant Me One Wish (Neville/Luna PG-13) - I *really* liked this one!
There seems to be a bit of a pattern emerging there, doesn't there - I do give a list of quite wide-ranging requests, honest...
There you go, DearSanta has been running for at least 6 years already. Will you join in the 7th?
