    SECRET SANTA 2
    AUTHORS EDITION


    Hey everyone. I'll be handling the Authors portion of the Secret Santa, to give Midknight some breathing room.

    Now in case you missed it last year and are new the premise behind this is simply. The various Authors on the site are donating their time to write something specifically for you!

    That's right. You can finally get that story where Harry Potter turns into an Elephant Animagus and shits all over his enemies... literally!

    The following are a list of some basic rules this will follow to protect the Authors from any rampant fuckery that may or may not have occurred last time we did this:

    1) Post here if you want to either Donate Your Skills or Donate your Ideas. If you do not you will not be put in the draw.

    2) The Authors are under no obligation to fulfill your request. They are doing this of their own good will and if they are uncomfortable with the request they can decline it.

    3) Winners state the outline. That means that while you can control the general gist of what Authors write you cannot control the details.

    Add me to the list - I can probably spare something in the region of 10,000 words, or so.

    So how does one enter this as a contestant? I'd love to be able to challenge an author with a specific idea.

    There is a week left on this. I'd suggest if you're interested at all in having one of your favourite authors write something especially for you that you ask for entry!

    I have one or two ideas. Would love to win and read it on my birthday. So If possible I'm throwing my hat in as a contestant.

    I have a few ideas, so I might as well throw my name into the hat.

    Uhm, so, yeah -- by "donate your ideas" do you mean "put your name in the hat to win a story based off one of an idea you have?" Because if so then count me in.

    I'm not a good enough author yet to reciprocate or compensate though.
