So I'm gonna be writing at least three fics, all of them holiday-themed and two of them Buffyverse.

Oh yeah. This'll be a great vacation. Hmm, wonder what I'm gonna do...

[Emmie]

LOL! Don't look at this as a pressure deal, HH. I set this up so that people could enjoy reading the stories over the holidays versus writing them.

I've considered having this not be a challenge we vote on, but one that's just done for fun. Besides, writing can be the most fun experience if you just let loose. *points at my Curse You, Fox piece that I wrote in an hour*

I'd look at this challenge as a free-for-all of fun holiday wackiness. That's why there's only the theme and no other limitations.

[Hellbound Hyperion]

Yeah, I like that. Especially since my BtVS Secret Santa fic is... uh... perverted. To put it euphemistically.

I have a couple good ideas though. And maybe I'll write a special Alice the Vampire Slayer fic for the holidays as well, since I'll have the time and I'll FINALLY be writing her story. (Finally free from school!) I do love that it would be just for fun - it'd be a lot more fun for the readers as well.

[The Night Lord]

Sounds like fun. I've always wanted to do a holiday-themed fic. Just wonder if I can actually pull it off...

[MoonyWolf]

Yay! Always happy to spread the Buffy-Holiday love! Can't wait! *rubs hands in glee* Thanks!!

[VampSlayer]

Hmm, I've never tried a Christmas fic, so I may enter this round!

[The Night Lord]

On second thoughts, I'm pulling out. I've pretty much quit writing anyway and a holiday fic is something I can't quite do

[VampSlayer]

Hmm, I haven't even started yet! D:

I'll try to get it going soon.

[Emmie]

Just wanted to remind everyone that this is just meant to be fun! No pressure. It could be a drabble or a longer fic. It could even be a poem or maybe have one of the characters singing their own version of a holiday song. No limits - just follow the theme of the holidays!

[MoonyWolf]

Meh. Having a complete writer's block. Probably to do with the fact that I'm not feeling at all happy or christmassy now. Stupid, stupid work.

[Hellbound Hyperion]

I sent mine in!
