So I just came up with an idea for us to do. What if we did a little story exchange for the holidays? It would essentially be like this:
-You say you want to join, and link one of your stories for it
-Once we have enough people I will randomly draw names
-Each person will be given a story to read
-Stories must be read by January 12th
The only rule I have is that you not join if you are uncertain you can meet the deadline. I want everyone to have their stories read by someone, and it wouldn't be fair to drop out suddenly. Now I understand things in life happen, and if someone can't do it they can message me and I will take their place so their person gets their story read.
As an extra you can even write a little review of the person's story, or make some fanart! That's of course, optional. But it would be a nice touch I think. What do you guys think? I think it's a good way to get the community involved with each other again.

This is a great idea!
Would it be like a secret santa thing, where you fill out the forms on what you like/dislike in stories?

I think can do this. We are going away for Christmas so it depends when we start. I will have my Surface Pro with me and might be able to read on the trip if I can get Internet access. But if we start before the 24th, I can do it as we will be home in the afternoon of Dec 26th.
Will it be short stories or longer chapter fics? Or?

No I wasn't planning on it being a secret santa, mainly because I'd like to participate too xD Basically once we get enough people, I'll get whatever story of theirs that they want read and draw names at random. If that makes sense lol |

And I suppose the due date could be extended to the first or second week of January just to give people time c: And there won't be a limit to how long the stories are. Just whichever one the person submits to me lol |

If that makes sense lol I read the first post wrong and thought you were talking about people writing one-shots and trading them with each other. oops. But okay, I get it now! Are you thinking a word limit on the fic that's read? |

My only thought it that maybe no word count, but just pair people up with similar wordcounts so someone who doesn't have a new fic that's only around 3k words doesn't have to read a beast of a 50k word fic

Born of Smoke and Fire is a word beast- shorter novel length. (89k)
Trapped - much shorter, novella length
then we have short tales ;
Sabotage
When Cats Fly
Help
