Dear fellow fen,
It has been brought to my attention that we are nearing Christmas. I, clever girl that I am, then deduced all by myself that this means we are also nearing the time of Christmas calendars. Seeing as I have fond memories of last year's Perfect Duet Christmas Calendar and assume you feel the same, how about a repeat performance, people? This is your chance to get some fannish goodness to shorten (well, felt shortening, not literal) the waiting period to the 24th of December and make the days until the popular and worldwide celebrated fest of gifts, overeating, and family get-togethers go faster. And for those of us (like me) who haven't written, drawn, or created as much as they wanted this year and feel the need to produce some more fics, art, etc. this is the perfect chance to secure their place on the list of the fen who have been good. Yes, I still believe that, if we are all real good, we'll get that sequel.
So, if you are up to it, let's have another Christmas Calendar! Same rules, same place, same time as last year:
- You can reply here to claim a day (or two, or three) on which you'll post your contribution. I'm hoping we'll get all 24 days covered, and, who knows, maybe we'll even end up having more than one entry on some days. I will edit this post from time to time, adding your names to the dates you pick. Anyone volunteering to go first or last gets virtual schoggi!
At what time of day you post is up to you; seeing as we all live in different time zones posting 'in the morning' seems infeasible.
- As for your contribution, any size, shape or form is fine. Fics from drabble to epic length, poems, songs, drawings, comics, manips, vids, ice sculptures… anything goes.
- Content-wise: Permitted are all genres, as well as gen, het and slash of all ratings (properly labelled). We usually focus on Jack/Stephen (slash or not) in this comm but welcome other pairings within the Master and Commander universe as long as Jack and/or Stephen get a mention somewhere. And, as this is for obvious reasons a no-go, no sex with or between underage characters.
Did I forget anything? Don't hesitate to let me know about any ideas or suggestions.
