Welp, it's that time of the year, the one you look forward to all year! HOLIDAY PROMPTATHON TIME! YAY! Most of you know it works by now and to those who don't, please refer to the 'How Does This Work?' section below. I would also like to point out the past two holiday promptathons and how they're filled with lonely prompts that were never filled. So if nothing tickles your fancy here, then check out
holiday promptathon 1 and
holiday promptathon 2 and see if you can fill an old wish (or perhaps inspire a new request of your own).
Holiday Past Prompt Promptathon #3
So, you guys remember how this works, right? No? It's simple! Take a gander at the 'How Does This Work' thing below! ^_^
How Does This Work?
1. You leave a comment to this post, either anonymously or signed in (totally up to you), with a fandom, a pairing, and a past prompt (refer to the rules for more info on this). So it should look like this -
FFVIII, Quistis/Fujin, cold
PS - LEAVE AS MANY PROMPTS AS YOU WANT! (Just keep it one prompt per comment)
2. Wait for someone to write your request.
3. Write other people's requests while you wait!
It's that easy! Seriously! 0.0!
Best part? Everyone's welcome to participate! Whether they're a member or not! =D
Rules
1. This a drabble community, so when you fill out a request, make sure it's with a drabble! Drabbles are less then 500 words as defined by me (but I welcome longer fics this year!). Use this very easy to use
word counter to help!
2. Normally for this comm, I ask that drabbles be of a certain amount of words, either 200, 300, etc, but for this promptathon THAT RULE IS TOTALLY SUSPENDED! I only ask for your drabble to be a minimum of a 100 words, with a maximum of 500 words! After that, write 101, write 325, write 498 word drabbles! I don't care! Go crazy!
3. If a particular prompt really inspires you and you go over the 500 maximum, post it to your own journal (preferably not in a F-locked entry, plz and ty) and leave a link in a reply to the original prompt. SCREW THAT! JUST POST IT! I WON'T GET MAD IN THE LEAST! =D
4. Let's keep 'I second that prompt!' to one a prompt. x.x Don't make Bat (ie, me) annoyed. Multiple 'I second that!' for a particular prompt will be deleted.
5. Prompt as many times as you want! Just try to keep prompting to three times in a row, then go read a magazine, and then feel free to come back and prompt some more. And please do try to write at least drabble for someone else.
6. You can leave prompt/requests in any of these styles:
FFVIII, Quistis/Fujin, cold
FFVIII, any, cold
Any, any, cold
FFVIII, Quistis/Fujin, any
7. Your prompt must be a past prompt from this community! Refer to the sidebar or the
TAGS for past prompts (excluding Promptathon 1, 2, and last year's holiday promptathon, of course).
And the most important rule!
Have fun and pimp this out far and wide! :D
This will run for two weeks!
A new prompt will appear Thursday, January 5th, 2011, noon-ish (EST).
