It's nearly the start of the hlh_shortcuts secret santa (posting starts tomorrow). I'm really excited to read all the new stories this year. I managed to get mine in too (a little past the deadline) I did wonder at some points whether I'd be able to do it this year but in the end I got a complete story. Without giving any hints as to which one I wrote... I was really happy with my assignment this year, I got to play around with some ideas I'd had brewing for awhile and never got as far as writing, so it was nice to have the push to do it.

I haven't really been very active in LJ or fandom in general recently and I'm hoping finally finishing off a new fic will help inspire me to get back into the game.

Anyway for anyone on my flist who has ever enjoyed any highlander this week would be a great time to try reading some fic. This exchange always has some fantastic writing, and usually includes a far number of great crossovers if highlander is not your first love. It all kicks off tomorrow here

I am so excited! New fic!

I wish that other exchanges were popular during the year, because it is a shame we only have the one. We get all new fic in a giant load of new-ficness in December, and then starve the rest of the year.

I always love the highlander secret santa, it's actually the only fic exchange I've participated in ever (done it for the last 3 years). Though I have done other challenges both in highlander and other fandoms. I think for quite a lot of people it's the only highlander fic they write some years (I've been very unproductive in 2011).

Would be lovely if there were more popular exchanges for highlander, but I suppose it's a question of getting the momentum behind it . I find these a lot of work (writing fic doesn't just flow for me) but if there were some other spaced out....
