I know this is very short notice, but since I participated last year and had a great time, I still want to pass this on and maybe other OSA elf writers want to jump in! Today I learnt that Zhie, the organiser of this, has pc troubles, but I thought, what the heck: lets pass it on!

What is the Stocking Stuffer Swap?

It is a trading of fanfics between writers. Each participant requests a fanfic with a particular pairing and rating and then writes a fanfic for one of the other participants. Your task will be assigned to you anonymously - that is, you won't know who is writing your fanfic and you won't know whose fanfic you are writing until the posting of them on Saturday, December 22, 2007. This is an adult HET fanfic exchange with an ELF emphasis (that is, at least one member of each requested pairing must be an elf) - if you wish to participate in a slash fanfic exchange for Lord of the Rings, please go to the Secret Santa Fic Swap.

Release Dates

All participants must register by Monday, October 1, 2007. You will receive your assignment by Monday, October 8, 2007. All entries are due in by Saturday, December 8, 2007. Entries may be turned in sooner than the last day, and it is encouraged that you don't wait until the last minute to send your entry due to technical errors that may occur. Entries will be available for viewing on Saturday, December 22, 2007. Stories may not be released to other archives, lists, or anywhere else online until December 25, 2007.

All stories must be new works, that is, this can't be a work you already started prior to getting your assignment.

For more information, click here. To register as an author or beta, select those choices. Artist information will be available after October 6, 2007.

Bummer. One day late. I wonder if we can't do an informal version of this swap right here on the OSA forum?

I think you still can sign up or contact her... Zhie's e-mail addy can be found on the page. One can always ask.

I e-mailed Zhie with the link to this thread because I can't answer for her.

If there is anyone else who wants to sign up, I shall wait until Friday to close it. I had some nasty computer trouble (hard drive died) and have been managing on a borrowed laptop the last two weeks. Finally got computer back on Sunday night, but all the reloading... well, that'll teach me to make a backup more recently than a year and a half.

Back on topic... Yes, if there is anyone else who would like to sign up, I shall make the new deadline October 5th, which still keeps the other dates without having to switch things around and gives me enough time to arrange the assignments.


And big, big thanks to Rhapsody for helping me out and posting this around for me! *huggles*
