ShipSwap Gift Exchange

ShipSwap is an exchange dedicated to shipping. In the past it was the "rare" ship swap and the pairings nominated were required to have less than a certain number of fics on AO3, but this is the fifth and final year it will be running and for this round it's been expanded to ships of all rarity levels.

There are only a few Hikaru no Go ships nominated, but the tagset is here if you'd like to view it. Seeing as ShipSwap is a panfandom exchange, it requires that participants make 3 - 6 requests with 1 - 20 possible ships in each, as well as 3 - 10 offers with 1 - 20 possible ships in each. The main page for the exchange is here.

Anyway, if nothing else Akira/Hikaru is nominated, and I figure members of this community might like to check it out while signups are still open! They run until February 9th, plus there is a FAQ with a complete schedule. Happy shipping!

Not Prime Time is taking nominations

Not Ready For Prime Time (Fandoms), or otherwise known as Not Prime Time, is a gen, het, femslash, and slash multifandom secret fiction exchange for medium sized fandoms. The name was taken from the nickname of the SNL cast who were called "Not ready for prime time players" when the show first began. Basically? This is for the fandoms that are medium sized and are not megafandoms.

They're currently doing nominations, more information here: http://npt-admin.dreamwidth.org/45922.html

Hikaru no Go is already an approved fandom, but I thought I'd mention it here, and there's no guarantee getting Hikaru no Go if you sign up as an assigned fandom. But the more Hikaru no Go fans who participate the more likely there will be Hikaru no Go fic! And I know in the past there's been people who missed out as they didn't have 3 different fandoms that they were willing to both request and write for.

Not Ready For Prime Time (Fandoms), or otherwise known as Not Prime Time, is a gen, het, femslash, and slash multifandom secret fiction exchange for medium sized fandoms, including any RPF fandoms with under 20,000 fics.

It's currently taking sign ups from now until April 30th. There's a few people who have signed up for Hikaru no Go, so while there are no guarantees on being matched with that fandom, I thought it might be of interest to members of this comm. Here is the sign up form. If you need an AO3 account invite, please let me know - I have lots to spare!

Round o14 of Blind Go!

It wasn't that long ago that we got things heated up with the summer mini-round, but it's time for the 14^th round of

blind_go/

blind_go!!

This round is Author's Choice! 1500-8000 words, up to five fics... due date is September 19^th so we can celebrate Hikaru's birthday in ficcish style!!

And... as you may have surmised already... we are experimenting with mirroring the challenge on both livejournal and dreamwidth. However, you do NOT need either a livejournal or a dreamwidth to play! Anyone who loves Hikaru no Go is encouraged to participate!! There's nothing we love more at blind go than participation!! Because we are testing out mirroring, we ask of you this favor: please only comment to posts in the blind go community of the platform of your choice... that is to say, if you prefer dreamwidth, sign up here on

blind_go. If you prefer livejournal, sign up here on

blind_go. This will help us determine how to proceed with mirroring in future rounds. Don't worry, though, it's all one round that will all be compiled together!!

Looking forward to having a great round... with YOU!! What?!?! Did you think we could have a great round without you?? Heck no!! It's always better WITH you!! And yes, I mean you, the person reading these words right now. So, please think about signing up, and signing in for fun and hikagoness!

Thank you!!

blind game again!

You may have already seen this, so apologies for spam, but

blind_go is doing another speed go/flashfic mini-round...

Mini-Round 004: Summer Heat!

You can read all about it here. Because this is flashfic, speed go, sign ups are not necessary, but the whole community is hoping you, yes, you are thinking of writing! Even just 100 (sweaty!) words would be enough!! Without your participation, everyone will just be a little sadder, so if possible, please think of submitting!! You've got nearly a whole week! ^_~

Thank you, and looking forward to the sizzling fics! Right off the griddle!!

[ad] SMASH FANFICTION COMPETITION

Love to re-imagine your favourite characters in exciting and unusual situations and have the knack for writing exciting stories? Then come and join the fun at SMASH! and participate in our fanfiction competition!

Imagination is key! Just think about it…

How does America get his first date with England?
What would Kingdom Hearts be like if Kairi was the Keyblade master?
Where will the Straw Hats journey end?

Tweaking the canon or disregard it entirely.

Exploration - the definition: analysis of subject; travel for discovery
“It is said that the darkest hour of the night comes just before the dawn.” - Paul Coelho
To be in on the action, write a ficlet (<1000 words) or a short story (1001-7500 words) inspired by one of these prompts. Entries will be judged via online voting by the general public, as well as a panel of reputable fanfiction authors chosen for their skills and knowledge of a broad range of fandoms. There are no restrictions on what pairings can be in the fanfic, but content must be rated G or PG.

See here for more details: http://www.smash.org.au/events/awesome-events/fanfiction-competition

Love to have more entries, and having Hikaru no Go REPRESENT, would certainly be awesome! - international entries are very welcome (the competition is run for a Sydney Australia convention)

Blind_Go Fun!

Hello everyone! I apologize in advance for the crossposting and spam... at least this only happens a couple of times a year, right? ^_^;;;

blind_go is underway, which means one thing- DISTRACTIONS! There's a few participation-y posts over at

kifu_archive , including the support group, free the bunnies, round robin, and drabbles. Also there's AIM chats scheduled for Fridays, though they seem to be going into Saturday and even Sunday. You can either check over at

kifu_archive , there's always a post there when a chat is going on... or you can just invite yourself to blindgo. You don't have to be writing for the challenge to participate, though- EVERYONE is welcome to join in. We would love to have you all.

Thanks for reading, and I appreciate your patience with the spamming. :D

Just a reminder!

Sign-ups for Round 011 of

blind_go are still going on for anyone interested!! In fact, we extended the sign-up deadline to Sunday, April 10th, so we really hope you will consider signing up!! The theme for the round is Childhood, and if you thought that theme was a bit daunting, well, there are themesets available to ignite your creativity, hopefully!

In

kifu_archive, there's a chat poll open, chat plans for Friday, and the ever popular support thread, which has a thread for inspiring music, as well as a few questions!

We know it's a busy time, and a busy fandom time, but there's nothing we'd all love more than another great round of fic, so if it's ever crossed your mind to sign up, now's the time! We're waiting for you! It just won't be the same without you!!

Thank you, and apologies for crossposting!!
