All stories have been passed out, and they await you eagerly in your inbox! Once you've read, come on over and take a stab at guessing who possibly could have written yours!

Please only comment along the lines of "OMG you're right, it was me!" (in which case you can go ahead and post your fic on the community) or to say that no, it wasn't you that wrote the story (in which case that person can guess again). Don't spoil it for everyone else by saying more! (Like "no, I didn't even enter" or "no, I wrote for so-and-so") If the person you wrote for doesn't guess at all or doesn't get it right, you can post your fic on the community starting on the 29th.

I'm talking an honest to goodness, get your gifts on Christmas SS. The original plan was not to have one due to October's event and then NaNo for those who participate in November and then the events we're planning in January, so December was going to be a month off, but if there's interest in doing a secret Santa, let me know and we'll do it. :)

PLEASE ONLY VOTE YES IF YOU PLAN ON PARTICIPATING. The reults should be set up so they're anonymous, but the wording was changed on the poll option since I've last done it so who knows.

Oh, and just to mess with you all, I'll let you know that 13 people were playing, but I ended up sending out 15 stories. One person wrote 2 stories, and one story was written by someone who wasn't playing. ^_^

STORIES ARE DUE TOMORROW


Yes, stories are due tomorrow, Friday, August 28th at midnight, PMT. Send your stories to me, Clay, by that time, and I will distribute them on the 31st.

I've gotten about half the stories so far, but I still need them from the other half of you. I will email you back to let you know that I've received your story. If you get no email from me within twelve hours of sending your story, assume that I never received it.

Peace out, yo.

The month of March houses the date of one of the most amusing discoveries of all time. Oh yes, it was the planet Uranus that was officially discovered by Sir William Herschel, on March 13, 1781.

Uranus is the butt of many grade school jokes and definitely one planet that our boys appreciate, and let's show it some love with a good, old fashioned Secret Santa (Secret Astronomer?) story exchange! Uranus has entertained us for over 200 years, so let's take some of the pressure off it and entertain each other!

Anyone who plays will get a prompt from another author which they will have two weeks to write. Meanwhile, someone will be writing a very special story just for you in return! At the end of two weeks, the stories get sent out anonymously, showing up in your inbox on the morning of April 3rd.

Sign up starts today! Peek inside for more info! )

Just a reminder that you have one week left to nominate stories. Nominations will end Sunday, February 1st. On Monday, February 2nd, voting will begin and last until the following Friday.

For reference, the list of eligible stories can be found here and the the rec post for 2008 is here.

Lastly, a link to the polls.

On another note, reading all of these stories has inspired me to want to write, and I'm sure others must be feeling that, too. ^_^ Originally, I was planning on holding a Secret Santa type event for Valentine's day, but considering how late I started the awards, I'm wondering if I'm cutting it too close.

The sign up would have to begin this week and writing would take place the week of voting and the week following, ending on the 12th. So the question is: is there any interest? And if so, when should that event start?

Please take the time to fill out this poll and let me know how you feel. ^_^ )

[edit] I do want to note that one person wrote a story for two different people. Just to screw with you all! :D

Guesses under here )

Also, I wanted to note that the [secret santas] tag is for non-fiction related posts, so in case we want to keep the whole of this time around's stories together, I'm going to be creating another tag (probably [secret santas April 2008]) that you can post along with your story if you like. Removed the tag due to lack of interest.
