Hopefully I'm putting this in the correct forum, but feel free to move it or delete it if it's not correct.
So, hello. I'm Wednesday. I wrote a fic a while ago, called A Sorta Fairytale, featuring Mr. Bloom and Ms. Knightley getting it together despite (in)significant others, the glamourous jet set life (not), meddling but well meaning personal assistants, exasperated family members, bemused friends, and their own stubborn personalities (*cough*Orlando*cough*). I do know how it's going to end, it's in varying degrees of getting to that end (tweaking timelines, integrating new characters, dropping weak subplots, etc. etc.) and I'm posting the middle parts of it over at blog.360.yahoo.com/calledinvain, A London Conversation (title taken from the excellent John Martyn record) every Wednesday (barring rain, sleet, and other natural disasters).
But I also like to just write...other things, just for experiment's sake, and so I'm offering an early holiday gift:
The 12 days of fic requests*
(with my schedule, the maximum amount of stories I'll be able to write will be 12, so the best fic request I get per day is the one I write)
The deal:
Starting tomorrow (or today, if that's how it works out in any one particular time zone) the 2nd of November, please put in a fic request that you'd like me to write for you. Do this for the next 12 days. Each day, I will pick my favorite request.
The plan is to have the 12 stories written and posted here and @ London Conversation in December.
My two major rules about the requests are that 1) They obviously need to have Keira and Orlando in it, 2) No fantasy requests, please - I agree, Orlando would look rather dashing as a vampire count and Keira as a sprightly fairy maiden, but I prefer to write about them as well...'real' people.
I look forward to adding to the great library of O/K fic we've got going on here, and to reading requests.
