Life on Mars mini!reverse!bang is here!

[basaltgrrl]

It is time to begin the Life on Mars mini!reverse!bang! What might that possibly be, you may ask? Well, a reverse!bang entails that the artists first do art, and then the writers do fic based on or inspired by the art. a Big Bang usually involves quite long fic, but we are not looking for that sort of commitment in this case. After some discussion, I'm proposing a two-stage reverse!bang.

NOTE: this is not yet the official signup post! That will follow shortly. This is a post for any questions/comments/thoughts.

Stage 1: The micro!reverse!bang. This will be for fics based on the art from our recent Artathon, links below. I'm proposing a word count minimum of 1000 words.

Artathon 2013
blue_sparkels: Sam and kid!Gene for aisforinterval [Gen | White Cortina]
lozenger8: Contemplative and sassy Sam for little_cello [Sam | White Cortina]
talkingtothesky: Don't forget me for awabubbles [Annie/Alex | White Cortina]
awabubbles: Don't stop me now for lozenger8 [Annie | White Cortina]
fern_tree: Under my wing for blue_sparkels [Sam/Gene | White Cortina]
fern_tree: Dystopia for basaltgrrl {Sam/Gene | Green Cortina]
basaltgrrl: A day to ourselves! for talkingtothesky [Sam/Annie | White Cortina]
little_cello: Not here, not now, not him for fern_tree [Sam/Gene | White Cortina]
aisforinterval: You're surrounded by... [Sam, Gene | White Cortina]

Stage 2: The mini!reverse!bang. All new art from any artists who sign up! Fic to be at least 5,000 words.

Proposed timeline:
Stage 1: writers sign up by April 10. Fic due by May 10.

Stage 2: artists sign up by April 10. Art due by May 10 (or later?). Writers sign up - open until art posted? Fic due by July 1?

Let me know if you have any thoughts about this proposed timeline! This is not the official sign up post.
