Apocalypse Kree 2011 - Call for Prompts!
The ficathon rules can be found here.
Call for Prompts!
1. Anyone is allowed to submit prompts. Even if you’re not a writer or don’t plan on writing.
2. Prompts must be more than one word. Traditional apocafic prompts are welcome, as well as those that put a different spin on things. Try and get creative. You can use specific scenarios, a series of words, lyrics (try to keep these down to a few lines), quotes, pictures (no non-worksafe pics please!), episodes, etc…
3. You CAN require specific pairings for your prompts. You cannot specify ‘het only’ or ‘slash only’, although you can specify ‘gen’(for this purpose 'gen' will mean no romance) or ‘team’ or 'any'. We all have those prompts that we really want to see written for our OTP. (If you want friendship rather than blatant ship and really want to make sure of it, you can add the word 'friendship' to the pairing.)
4. You can also submit general prompts that can be written with any pairing or any way the author sees fit.
5. When submitting prompts for individual characters, please indicate if you want the prompt written as gen or any pairing. If you don't indicate, I'll assume you intend the prompt to be gen.
6. Please submit multiple prompts. And please submit both pairing specific prompts and general prompts that can be written by anyone for any or no pairing. That way we’ll have a big variety and, hopefully, everybody will be happy.
7. I reserve the right to throw out prompts that are only one word, that are repeats of another prompt (unless they’re a different pairing) or that are graphic and intense. (You really have to submit something pretty sick to gross me out, so I don’t foresee this as a problem. It’s really more of a ‘don’t post pics of entrails’ type of thing.)
TL&DR:
Specify pairing OR character OR 'gen' OR 'team' (you can combine pairing information with 'gen' in order to request friendship fic)
And then give the prompt.
Examples:
Eli & Chloe, gen. Destiny makes it home, but there's no one there to greet them.
John/Cam. "If you were here with me tonight/the sea's sound might shape itself/into your name..." - Guy Gavriel Kay.
Cam/Sam. Once you hit rock bottom, there's nowhere to go but up.
Teyla/Jennifer. Starlight, wind, wine.
Any. (code for picture)
If you list a prompt without a qualifier (pairing/character/gen/any), then it will automatically go into the 'ANY' category.
Prompts will be taken through July 31. Prompts posted August 1. Fic is due, at the latest, by September 30.
FYI: While you're certainly welcome to leave multiple comments as you think of more prompts, you're also welcome to leave multiple prompts in the same comment, as long as they're on different lines (with maybe an extra space in between if they run for more than one line).
Comments are screened. If you have questions, please go HERE.
WE ARE NOW CLOSED TO NEW PROMPTS FOR THIS ROUND. THANKS, EVERYONE!
