TWO WEEKS until the 2023 Lord of the Rings Secret Santa claiming and posting deadline!

Dec 17, 2023 15:39

There are now TWO WEEKS left to get those fills in! Claiming will run all the way until the posting deadline on December 31st.

Currently, just over half the prompts have been claimed. Our goal is to make sure every prompter gets at least one of their prompts filled. Have a look and see if you can help us out. We'd love to see all the prompts filled in honour of the 20th anniversary! ❤️

Here are prompts still waiting for some love:

There's gen prompts for:
- Poppy & Nori from Rings of Power
- Dain-focused fic
- time-travelling Gandalf

Broader ensemble prompts for both Lord of the Rings (The Fellowship, Third Age Dunedain) and The Silmarillion (almost any character).

Romance/pairing (varying ratings) prompts:
- Bronwyn/Arondir from Rings of Power (this one an AU prompt)
- Legolas/Imrahil (either m/m or gen)
- Fingolfin/Maglor (modern AUs possible)
- Galadriel/Sauron
- Caranthir/Caranthir's Wife/Haleth
- Boromir/Faramir

There are also some kinky prompts if that's your cup of tea:
- Dom Arwen
- two different prompts with bottom Melkor (AU and First Age)

You can find all the prompts HERE, as the prompt meme format doesn't allow for linking to individual prompts.

If you are new to the format, AO3 has a helpful FAQ here.

This year's timeline (2023):
- Prompt Posting: November 1st to 30th.
- Claiming: December 1st to 31st.
- Collection Open for Posting: December 1st to 31st
- All Fills Due: December 31st 2023.

The Rules (2023): 1. You will be able to post up to 2 prompts between November 1st and 30th, and we will do our best to make sure at least one of your prompts is filled.

2. Your fill is due December 31st 11:59 pm Pacific Time (if you want a countdown timer to fret over, there's one here). Please post it to AO3 (and nowhere else, until January 3rd).

3. As a matter of fairness, please make your story more than 750 words (1000 is better).

4. Once claiming has opened, please only claim a prompt if you plan on actually fulfilling your end of the bargain, and please only claim one prompt at a time. After you have completed your fill, you may claim a new one.

5. Claiming a prompt: use the "Claim" button next to the prompt you want to claim. (You can find open prompts under "Prompts" in the sidebar.) Several people can claim the same prompt. You can also claim a prompt without having submitted any of your own.

6. It's a good idea to join the Dreamwidth community so you can keep track of any admin posts. You can also follow us on Tumblr at Lotr-SeSa.
Have fun -- and spread the word!
