April 1st Fiction Swap Deadline approaching!

[aldersprig]

We've got sixteen participants in the April Fool's Day Fiction Swap; the deadline for signing up is the end of day 2/14/11.

When I started reading web-comics, they would often, on April Fool's day, draw each other's strips in a sort of round robin.

Why not do that with weblit? Enough of us read each others' work that it wouldn't be that hard to write a guest post in their setting.

We're organizing this on a semi-random semi-by genre style, and hope to have participants lined up by the beginning of this week so we have plenty of time for organization and writing.

If you want to participate, more details are available by emailing wsteria at gmail dot com.

Please include:

• Your name:


• The name of your project:


• The URL of your project:


• Any other questions, ideas or special considerations:

Some questions that have been asked, in no particular order!
Who is eligible? You! If you are a web author and have an email address, anyway.
Will the guest story be canon? Not unless you specifically arrange that.

It's fun. There may be barracuda ninjas.
