To kick off our comm opening,
theheartofspn will be hosting a Winchester Summer LOVEfest to inspire fans creativity in thinking about the past, present, and future Winchester canon! The idea is intended to be multi-media, basically anyway you can think of expressing your Winchester love. For those worried about bigbangs and time commitments, please note we're not asking for any big huge projects (although if you want to go to town on this, by all means do so!), it's more about participation and quality of the spirit of that love. Anything like a 1k fic, or vidlet, or a small picspam, or meta or 10 song fanmix, whatever your medium is, it's more about spreading the Winchester love.
CHALLENGE GUIDELINES:
1) This challenge is a two-month, multi-media celebration of the Winchester brothers leading up to the Season Eight premiere. Any fan who wants to participate can sign up now through the end of July August 5th, and celebrate their love of the brothers in any way they choose: fic, vids, art, picspam, essays, meta, graphics, recs - if you created it and it’s about the Winchesters, we want to see it!
