Very tentative. Feedback welcome. Trying to fit two weekends into some of these activities. And that's a four-week writing period for 1000 words.

I was suggesting not reveals but stories due around 26/27th, then reveals around New Year's. Back in the lj Secret Santa days it was pretty common and seemed to work okay despite Yuletide, but perhaps the fest landscape has changed too much for that to work.

Six weeks is my personal minimum to see on a schedule but I know I'm slow - five might be a good compromise for the majority of people.

Right, just me missing the obvious. I'll run the numbers, see how things jive with my schedule, and look at options.
