:) She's an evil one, no doubt. Are you planning on doing it this year?

You did 5- so were 4 pinch hits?

Very very evil.

Technically, 3 pinch-hits and one stocking stuffer. All for different fandoms (original was Mary Russell, then HIMYM, Scrubs, State of Play and Heroes RPF)

wait, what's a stocking stuffer? I don't remember seeing that in the FAQ

Stocking stuffers are Yuletide Madness. Once everyone has a 1000+ word story, all the requests open up again and you can submit anything of any length. This lasts for a day or two, right before the archive opens.

Total chaos, so much fun. the one I wrote for Kgal was a stocking stuffer. She'd pulled out three betas in about two days for my pinchhits

Yeah. if you're going to do it, have your beta locked up right after assignments go out.

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2009-10-22 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
well, your first fic assignment you have time for though, right? It's just the pinch hit that gets crazy?

Yeah, the pinch-hits get totally nuts. I probably won't pick any up this year, since it'll be in the middle of finals, but maybe I'll get out a stocking stuffer or two.

the stocking stuffers don't have to be 1k right?

[personal profile] hllangel 2009-10-22 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
Stocking stuffers can be short. reason is that there's already been 1k for everyone.

'sFunny... I'm watching the first episode of NCIS:LA and alternating between wanting to do that and going, Huh?

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2009-10-22 02:16 pm (UTC)(link)
NCIS:LA is an odd duck. The plots are crap but there is SO much slash potential between Callen and Sam that it's scary. I mean *I* can even see it!

My husband's only been out of bed a while and he just looked at me, raised and eyebrow and *smirked*.
