Guaging Interest

Some of you may be familiar with the LJ SGA community [livejournal.com profile] mcsmooch . It's function is simple, periodically there are festivals of kissing announced. Fanworks are posted, fic, art, picspam, all around the theme of kissing.

Now, we are about to have to suffer for a while without and new episodes of Leverage, so should we console ourselves with a similar community here on Dreamwidth?

If there's interest, I'll do the leg work and make the community and start the first fest soon after tomorrow's episode.

What I would keep from the SGA community is the easy-going feel, no minimum word count, nothing to commit to, just come and share some kisses with the community. I would also restrict the community to new works only and all work must be posted to the community. I would make some kind of arrangement similar to what [community profile] kink_bingo did so that non-Dreamwidth account holders could participate. Also I have, and I'm sure some of you have, invite codes going spare.

What I would change is the pairing-specific nature of the community. Leverage fandom is more about spreading the love around to everyone, I think. So all kisses would be welcome, Gen, Het, Multi, Slash, RPF, Angsty, Happy, Silly, whatever you want, as long as they feature Leverage characters.

So what do you think? Do you need some Leverage kissing in your life? Do you want to come out and play?

Not very many people need to say, do it, for me to go ahead--oh and if anyone has a good idea for a comm name, don't be shy about offering it up.

ETA: this pretty much has to be called The Kissing Job, right?

I'm not sure how much time I would have to participate, but... if there is no minimum that we have to do I'd be able to contribute something I'm sure.

The Kissing Job sounds like a good name lol
