    Winners will be chosen at random on a date I'll figure out later.

    I'll happily both write and suggest. Prefered genres: Dresden Files, Harry Potter and Buffy, in that order.

    I'll toss an idea into the pot to win a story. (Still waiting on that one from last year Jeram, but don't worry, I'll keep bothering you cuz you're awesome <3)

    I'll also offer my writing skills. However (sorry folks) I have to be a bit picky about what I say I'll write, otherwise I'll never write it: Harry Potter fandom (any character). Short (probably <5k word scene). No romance/shipping/smut.

    Don't forget that you don't need to offer to write in order to enter the drawing to "win" a story by an author.

    I am going to write and suggest. Only HP fandom please.

    My new year's resolve is to write a good fanfic. This will help me start a bit.

    Same as Ched - I'm enlisting as both a writer and i'll love to have something written for me as well. I'll write anything <5k, (preferably 'actiony', no smut or romance or crackfic) set in either the HP world (hint: I love Dumbledore), or in the DFverse.

    I'm offering my skills as a writer to the program. Preferable story length is ~10k words or under, and they would have to come in lump-sum payments of ~2k word chapters, but yeah.

    I'm not a writer but I will throw in my own thing for people to get. I will stream whatever game the person who wins wants me to stream as long as I can feasibly get it.

    I will then offer up what happens to the stream. Whether the person wants the videos unlisted for their personal viewing or if everyone can watch it in my Youtube archive.

    Also I don't feel the need to enter to win anything in this myself.

    What the hell. I'm not the best writer around, so I'll probably not get any suggestions. Hence, there is nothing to lose with being signed for writing, as well as suggesting. Sign me up, too.

    In the unlikely case that someone wants to send me something, word limit isn't an issue so long as I have time, and I can work in HPverse, Narutoverse and DCverse.

    I'm down to write and suggest. I'll happily write in anything I know, but the main one is HP, I suppose.

    I'd be happy to write, and I'd like to actually talk it out a bit with whoever draws me just to get a good feel for what they want.

    It's probably a good idea to do just that. :)
