JP over on another board brought this site to our attention, so I thought I'd share here too, given the increased number of GAH fanfic writers to the fold (yea!!) Go to this link, sign up (November 2nd is the deadline!) yuletidetreasure.org/index.shtmlThe home page can explain it better than I can. Two things: It's for RARE fandoms only, so no Trek or SG-1 (as two examples). Also, since what's wished for or written may contain adult material, it's for 18+ only. As for content, anything goes (meaning het, slash, whatever.) I, of course, signed up both WISHING for GAH stories, and WRITING them. Go there and learn how it works. I'm happy to say that under "Neediest Fandoms," GAH does NOT appear. It's got 2 requested, 7 offered. Not bad, huh?

I don't really know much more than what's on the homepage. Not sure by what it means by "pairing," unless it's something like one's wish, "I'd like to see so-and-so paired with such-and-such", kinda like I put in for my wish, and then for willing to write for someone else.
I've already got my assignment too, whoot!

It's that time again!
FANFIC Writers! Here's a nice project for the upcoming season.
Yuletide Treasures is a holiday exchange of fanfiction.
You make a list of stories you'd like to recieve, and what you could write. Then you are given a recipient's list (with at least one match) and you write something for them. Someone else writes a story for you... It's a surprise who you are writing for, so it can be a lot of fun!
The only thing is that the fandoms have to be rare fandoms. No Buffy the Vampire or Harry Potter fanfic are allowed.
But GAH certainly is!!
And there are some other favorites here also! (Happy Days, I, Spy, Avengers, Darkwing Duck, etc). If you don't see yours, and want to participate, now is the time to nominate them!
Nominations are open now.

One word....
SQUICK!
(One of the first on the "unfilled" list caught my eye, cause the requestor shares my wife's name. This other person is asking for a John Adams/Thomas Jefferson pairing. I'll pass...)
I forgot to mention there is someone asking (HD?) for a Claire Allen/Cupid/Trevor Hale pairing...

This is PATHETIC! Only 1 person requested GAH? And only 4 offered to write it?
You mean more people want to write Full House fanfic than GAH? You mean that more people are willing to write I, Spy than GAH? For the love of all that is good and pure and true... more people want fanfic of Fifty Cent and Kanye West?
Where are all the GAH fanfic writers?
Sign ups are open, but only until the 18th.

Sign ups are open, but only until the 18th. I'll admit - I don't have much time to write GAH stories. I'm in the middle of two now, and also have other things I've got to get done. This case, I have a quillow and some jewelry to make: Quillow for a friend, jewelry for friends and possibly bartering chips next festival (don't laugh... it does work sometimes. ) Maybe next year things will slow down a little bit and I'll be able to participate.

I write them, but I have my own personal designs on what I wish to write. I'm not quite sure about the challenge, but isn't it about someone asking to me write a story with a plot they ask for? I'm very narrow minded in what I like writing about (four letters--B-I-L-L) and don't want to have to put something together I'm not interested in just to promote GAH. I guess I could sign up wishing for Bill oriented stories.

I am in the same boat as Mel. I have 1 story I am currently working on and two in the hopper - HD I have not forgotten yours it is one of the two in the hopper. I just really want to get the current story I am writting done. Maybe next year I will check it out the rare fandom challange.

I guess I could sign up wishing for Bill oriented stories. Mona I understand completely. Last year I was asked to write a SLASH piece for a pair that I didn't believe would get together. But that was because in that fandom I said I'd write anything. Stupid me. In the end it was fun. The story written for me was good - lots of people loved it. Again, I asked for something general, and got something I wasn't expecting... but that's the fun of it!
I'm not trying to talk you into it... ok, maybe... but they also have I, Spy and the Avengers. I think you list 3 you want and at least 3 you could write. You can also put down that you will only write about Bill or Kelly, and no whatever... They would pair you based on what you can write and what you do want.
Surprised Mac hasn't signed up. Thought this would be her speed... and what about Ms B and Nicol and ...
Hey... where's Billswoman?
