I did the same as some other: gave three fics with a total of four different pairings to choose from. I think that gives writers a lot of room to find something they might like. In years past, I chose a 1 and a 3 and both fics turned out pretty well. I signed up with a four this time bc I don't really want to write my regular pairings. I had a lot of fun writing for the Kinky Valentine and that was pushed probably to a 5! Laura/D'Anna is not something I'd expect to like.
What I will say is that the writers generally NEVER remix my fics in the way that I expect, so I would caution against imagining what kind of remix you might like to see. My remixes have always been wonderful, but definitely different than what I imagined. So, knowing that, I chose stories with a little bit of open canon, ones that could allow a writer to branch off, focus on a different POV, create backstory, or to continue the story. Sometimes, drabbles work really well because they're incredibly open, or complex stories with different characters/pairings that can be fodder for different POVs can work well. I like to focus on the ones that could give writers the most flexibility but would also excite me to see written/interpreted differently.
Anyway, hope that all makes sense. I am super excited to see any of my stories remixed. SO FUN!
