WWE FICATHON SIGN UP!!!
Apr. 28th, 2007 01:58 amOkay, so I said a while back that I'd be running a Lita/Randy or Lita/John ficathon in time for Christmas...yeah, so that didn't quite happen. I am, however, quite happily settled into my new flat with my brand new internet connection and my brand new laptop and I've finally caught up with LJ. So, I've decided it's time to run said ficathon.
Now, I've had a few people mention that they're interested in this, but it's been kind of split as to whether Lita/John or Lita/Randy is the most popular. Therefore, I've decided to combine the two. Writers can choose which pairing they want to write.
In an effort to make the 'assignments' slightly easier to hand out, I'm going to be running this ficathon slightly different to the Lita ficathon.
Okay, so here's what to do:
1] You sign up by replying to this post.
2] You leave your penname and email address (one you're likely to check regularly - please make sure it's correctly typed, I had problems with the last ficathon).
3] You supply me with three quotes and two things you'd like to see in a fic. Quotes can be from songs, TV shows, poems, anything you like. They can even be made up lines you just think are cool.
4] You let me know whether you are writing Lita/John or Lita/Randy (If you don't know, write that, too). Please note that if you really dislike one of the pairings (and are writing for the other) you need to also tell me that in your sign up, so that I know not to have someone gift you a fic with that pairing.
5] I will put all the quotes supplied by everyone into one list and all the things people would like to see in another.
6] The final sign up date will be Sunday 20th May and assignments will be emailed out on Wednesday 23rd May.
7] In your email you will receive three random quotes from the list compiled and two things you need to write into your fic. You will also be given the name of another person who has signed up for the ficathon. This is the person you'll dedicate ('gift') your fic to.
8] Because I know a lot of people find it hard to do, please note that all three quotes do not need to be put into the fic, but you must include at least one.
9] If you are writing a fic in parts, at least five chapters/parts must be ready to post by the deadline and you must intend to finish the fic. (If your fic is epic and you're posting it in two large chunks, then the first must be ready by the deadline).
10] Fics must be ready to post by Friday 17th August. This gives you over two months to write the fic/the first five chapters. I will be sending out reminders closer to the time and I'm always available to answer questions.
Here's a ( sample sign up )
So, yeah, please plug this anywhere you can think of; Yahoo groups, fanfiction.net, LJ comms, blogs, your LJ, everywhere and anywhere. Let's see how many people we can get to sign up! :)
If anyone has any questions, please email me at wwekyizific@hotmail.com.
So, yeah, go on, sign up! You know you want to :p
