I'm already looking forward to this. I would love to do a fic exchange, but prompts leave it open for a little more creativity, while fic-exchanges narrow it down more.
So I'm good for either one.
I love the anonymous writer thing. Although there is safety in sticking with a known writer it also means missing out on possibly awesome fic, especially if there's a new writer in town. The gen ficathon would be a kind of safe haven for reading works by authors we've never read before.
I would say to go very broad with the word count, like 500-4000 words (for example, could be more or less) as well as say it's okay to go a little over or under (myeb by one hundred words but no more than that). Again, example.
As for the definition of gen, I would say no pairings unless they're canon pairings and not center-stage in the story.
