Introducing the HH Exchange

We are running an exchange for fic based on the characters or the cast of Horrible Histories.

Anyone who signs up will be given another participant to write for, and will have six weeks to write a complete story of at least 1,000 words for one of their requested ships. In return, you’ll get a 1,000 word fic for one of the ships you requested. Nominations for ships (both romantic and platonic!) are open now, and signups will open August 9 and close a week later. Fics are due October 1.

Interested? Check out the rules and FAQ and the nominations guide for more information.

For those of you considering joining the HH Tumblr RP

If you use Chrome, you can create a new user account to keep your RP separate. This means you can create an RP as a primary blog - and send asks as them! - instead of them being a secondary blog on the one you already have, and you won't need to log out and log back in all the time.

Go to "settings", scroll down to "users", and then click "add new user". And that's... pretty much the entire process.

You'll need to reinstall any add-ons you have (e.g. Tumblr Savior) on the new user account, but that's really the most difficult thing - you can just create a new Tumblr as normal. Each Chrome window will now have an icon that shows which account those tabs belong to, so you'll always know. And once you're logged into the new account, you can tell it to always open a specific set of pages whenever you launch it, so it'll always be ready for you to use. (Just go back to "settings", "on start up", and "set pages"!)

You can have multiple windows logged into different accounts running at the same time. And if you want to launch an account that you don't have open right now, you can just click on the little icon, select the other account from the drop down, and a window for that account will open!

If you're on Firefox, it's a little more complicated, but you can achieve a similar effect by following this official tutorial to create separate profiles. Then, if you want to have multiple profiles open at once, follow the instructions for creating special shortcuts here. Those two pages cover it all step-by-step, and there are lots of screenshots for you to refer to, so even if you don't do much techy stuff you can hopefully follow this!

The only drawback to setting up a new Tumblr is that they won't appear in tracked tags for a few days - so you might want to send an ask to hhroleplay to let them know you're there. But this setup could be a good alternative for some people.

Happy RPing! :D

I am the daughter of a water goddess. I am a woman with water in her veins and power in her breeding. I am a woman who makes things happen, and I am not defeated yet. I am not defeated by a boy with a newly won crown, and no man will ever walk away from me certain that he won’t walk back. - Philippa Gregory, The White Queen.

”She is not a boy though she is weak like a boy, nor a fool though he has seen her tremble with feeling like a fool. She is not a villain in her capacity to hold a grudge, nor a saint in her flashes of generosity. She is not any of these male qualities. She is a woman. A thing quite different to a man.”

“This is a king as we have never seen before in England: this is a man whom the people will love on sight. And his eyes are fixed on my face as if I know a secret that he has to have, as if we have known each other forever, and I can feel my cheeks are burning but I cannot look away from him. A modest woman looks down in this world, keeps her eyes on her slippers; a supplicant bows low and stretches out a pleading hand. But I stand tall, I am aghast at myself, staring like an ignorant peasant, and find I cannot take my eyes from his, from his smiling mouth, from his gaze, which is burning on my face.” - Philippa Gregory, The White Queen.
