In case anyone here fancies joining in this challenge, it involves writing fanfic type short stories or whatever for someone in a Secret Santa type way.

You can request fic in your favourite fandom and offer to write for someone else in exchange.

CJ Cherryh - Alliance, Chanur, Foreigner, and others are all up as having been requested but most appear as needing people to offer to write for them.

I know we have some talented artists here, I'm sure we have some equally talented writers

I'll be doing this, sherbs, although the results will be "from" my fic account, not my regular LJ account.

I have signed up both to give and receive :cherryh: fic, although from different subsets.

(I'm trying to keep the two accounts separate in case I feel the need to write something beyond saucy/naughty sometime.)

And I have finished writing it! At 12,000+ words, it could be counted as a novelette!

We'll see ... length is not everything ...! (We can't do any "reveals" connecting story and author until after New Year's ... the stories will be public in a few days - see the countdown on the site. But they will remain anonymous until Jan. 1.)

Edited to add:

But meanwhile, here are links to some :cherryh: stories from past years:

Alliance scenarios

Chanur (Compact Space)

Foreigner

Morgaine

I thought CJC frowned on fanfic.

Hmmm ... people write :cherryh: fanfic in this forum frequently, and no one has been told to knock it off thus far, to my knowledge.

(Didn't I see your name pop up on the Yuletide page in the flurry of recent posting, Nand'Keenir?)

in this forum, we write things with CJC-aiji's permission. and :t


and yes, I did Journeyman fic, and an Othello fic*.

* = I signed up for it, having misread it - I'd thought it was asking for a look at the unusual life of Othello and Desdemona...it was for Iago and Emilia.
oi :Arrgh:

Oooh, you're not supposed to say which ones you wrote! :eek: What if your dear recipient is lurking this Board! :lol:

I'm not sayin' what I wrote. It was long. Enough said!

Well, whether writing fanfic on :cherryh: works is naughty or nice ... the fact of the matter is that this year's stories can now be read on the http://www.yuletidetreasure.org/ site.

And my secret person made me a gift of a very nice Chanur story: Anify's Accord.
