We have two (2) FK-eligible events this summer! FK won a place among the official fandoms of the new
gen-ficathon, and of course FK is always eligible for
oldschoolfic, by definition. Their timeframes overlap, but it's not impossible to participate in both. I'm planning to give it a whirl. I hope you will, too! (I would enjoy receiving FK prompts to write. ~g~) I have not yet signed up for either, but just because I need to plan and ponder my prompts. (What makes a high-quality prompt? Different things for different people, I'm sure.)

Gen-ficathon is bright new.
Oldschoolfic, on the other hand, has held three events to date, and I've played them all ("
A Delicate Balance" (FK), "
Fearful Symmetry" (FK) and "
So This is Home" (HL)) and found them quite satisfactory. With two events so close together, I'm going to have to aim at shorter stories (as
much-madness is always telling me to). Pity: I will get a whole week off work for the first time in over a year just before the assignments go out. If only it were after! :-)
