January 2007 Challenge
The 2006 November/December Challenge is now finished! No one wrote for it, so no house points awarded.
hp_gen_ch's January Challenge is The Founders!
Salazar Slytherin, Godric Gryffindor, Rowena Ravenclaw, Helga Hufflepuff. Little to nothing is known about them in canon -- and that's one of the things genfic is good for: to flesh out the sketchier areas of canon. Your task this month is to write a genfic on the subject of one or more of the Founders of Hogwarts. You can go historical, taking us back to when the school was first created and during its early years. You can set your fic at another point in the Harry Potter timeline, all the way up to the current canon timeline -- anything goes, as long as your story sheds light on the Founders -- their motivations, their personalities, their daily lives, etc.
Your 1000+ word, beta-read fics are due by midnight Pacific time on the 31st of January. Detailed posting format rules are available here or the community userinfo, and beta reading services may be found here. Please direct all questions to the Keeper of the Answers, imadra_blue (see her Q & A post). Have a wonderful January and, of course, a prosperous, happy, and wonderful new year!
