The 2020 [community profile] hlh_shortcuts fest is now completely revealed! 16 total stories on the AO3. (It looks like there's still one unrevealed story, but I asked, and the mod kindly let me know it's a duplicate.)

One of the 16 is by me. This annual fest traditionally has an author guessing game; I expect all of you, who care to, to guess my contribution correctly with no effort whatsoever. hahahaha

I've read most of the stories, but not yet those released last. So it's too early for recommendations. But I will absolutely make recommendations from this fest!

It's time to start thinking about [community profile] fkficfest for 2021. (Did you realize that this year is the 25th anniversary of the first airing of "Last Knight?")

I'll soon put up a poll with the usual questions:

  • Do folks want to play this year, or skip a year?

  • Do we want to play exchange-gift style or challenge-prompt style?
    • If we play exchange-gift style, I think we should adopt a modified HLH_Shortcuts sign-up style, instead of our original sign-up style.
    • If we play challenge-prompt style, how many prompts should we have? 1, 2, 3? We'll definitely elect the prompt(s), and use proper stack-rank voting, instead of first-past-the-post or points, to identify the most popular.

  • When do we want stories to come due? We need ~2 months to write. So April, May, June, July, August?

  • I hope everyone is okay with the minimum word-count staying lowered to 500 words...? No maximum, of course.


What else should our poll ask? What else should I consider?

Thank you!
