For the Supernatural readers: Pledge a Fic Time!
Hiya, everybody,
I am certifiably insane. What have I done?!??!
Anyway, here's how it goes: I'm currently on vacation and won't be back in town until March 10. I'm gearing up to finish Postcards...then along comes this message inviting Supernatural fanfic writers to participate in a Fic-a-Thon (like a Walk-a-thon, but considerably less aerobic) to benefit Haiti through inspiring donations to Misha Collin's UNICEF page for Haiti.
Who the what now?
Explanatory links are below, but I thought I'd try a crack at it first. Lessee...
(1) I am offering to write a one-shot Castiel fic, 2000-5000 words, possibly Dean/Castiel, possibly Castiel/other, possibly gen, according to the sponsor's request. See Page 2 of the Pledge-a-thon comments--I believe I'm in there somewhere.
(2) I will write the fic to someone's specific request on the condition that they sponsor me by donating money to UNICEF's Haiti Relief Effort through Misha Collin's funding drive, which is also linked below. Minimum donation $10, maximum $20, no matter how wordy I get (yeah, you know me, always turning 2 chapter fics into 4.) This is all very legitimate and above-board, because the money only goes to UNICEF--not Misha (who is scrupulously honest, 'cause come on, angel, dude! ^ ~) nor any of the site admins.
(3) I must post the fic by March 27--yes, this is where the insanity comes in, because I am a very s-l-o-w writer.
So please read the links below, feel free to question me in any way, and read my last message below the obligatory links.
“I am participating in a pledge_a_thon: community.livejournal.com/pledge_a_thon/ Charity Round. Please consider Sponsoring my fanwork (or offering up a fanwork of your own for donations). All proceeds go directly to Misha Collins’ UNICEF Page for Haiti Earthquake Relief Efforts! inside.unicefusa.org/site/TR”
I'd like to make very clear that I don't expect or require anyone to sponsor me; I've already donated money to UNICEF for Haiti a long while ago. This is just me offering a little extra push for them. I already owe you guys so much for your moral support that I feel a little selfish asking for anything more from you. But hey, it's not for me, so maybe I can be forgiven. Thanks for reading!
