A Sweet Idea For A Drabblethon, Maybe?

Sep 30, 2009 23:52

So I had a nice long shift alone at the candy store today, and reading a newspaper out of boredom I discovered something interesting: not only was the Sweetest Day holiday invented by a fellow right out of my very own state, but actually, it was not created to be a second Valentine's Day ( Read more... )

holiday, writing, fandom, lj, fun, flist, ideas, thoughts, a new tag for trying new things

I've never done an exact drabble before (I think the closest I've gotten is 156 words for a Doctor Who prompt on comment_fic. Could be fun to try.

It wouldn't have to be a drabble, though. That'd just be the arbitrary word minimum, to keep the pressure low. Of course, if you want to challenge yourself by attempting brevity (lord knows I go to that place, at times) you certainly could ;)

That sounds fun!

Yay! A couple people have expressed interest so far, and I'm hoping that once the actual post went up, more would show up to participate. Of course, hopefully people would be willing to help me out by pimping it around? *puppy eyes*

I don't know which of my fandoms best overlap with your flist's fandoms, but I might give it a shot. :)

Off the top of my head, I know I've got people on my flist who are big into BtVS/AtS, Firefly, and Stargate. And Merlin...you were one of the ones in Guild that watched Merlin, right?? Oh, and Supernatural. There are a lot of my shows big among my flist that I don't watch ;)

I can't actually write, so I couldn't participate or anything. but I just wanted to add that I LOVE THIS IDEA! AND I THINK IT'S MADE OF AWESOME!

You could make a prompt request though! And help out by linking to it/pimping if you wanted! It's all about spreading the love :)

Yes, I think I would be interested in such an idea. Yes, indeed.

Well, that's six votes of interest so far, lol. And I think an actual official 'athon post would hopefully garner more interest...I'll probably go ahead and get that started this weekend.
