******************

NOTE: PROMPTING HAS NOW CLOSED, BUT FICS AND FANWORKS MAY STILL BE SUBMITTED THROUGH AUGUST 31ST. THANKS!


Welcome!!!! The time is now upon us. This will kick off a month's worth of prompting and fanworking and all the good things. Not sure what to do? Click below for our handy-dandy Promptathon Guide!

RULES ON POSTING SUBMISSIONS
(please read before you post! <3)


The Rules.  Just follow these three easy steps!

1. Leave a Prompt.
Prompts can be anything--simple or elaborate, words or pictures, songs or poems, lyrics or phrases. Anything that, to you, inspires a C/N fanwork. Use your imagination. Go crazy. All I ask is that you keep it tasteful and warn for anything explicit or triggery. Also, try to be as specific as you can with your prompts--this is often very helpful to those creating the fanwork.

And leave as many prompts as you want. I’m serious. Keep coming back, y’all. We want all the prompts we can possibly get Also, be sure to leave each prompt as a separate comment.

2. Wait a week.
Tailgate and chitchat and keep leaving prompts. And mull over the epic fanworks you are creating.

3. Submit C/N fanwork like there is no tomorrow.
All submissions should either be posted here or linked to this post via a comment. The nitty gritty details of posting your stuff can be found HERE. Please read before you post


Timeframe:
Prompts will be accepted starting today, Friday, July 13th (!!!) and will remain open until Friday, August 10th.  Submissions may be submitted beginning on Friday, July 20th and may continue to be submitted until August 10th.


What we hope to accomplish with all this promptathon-iness:
  • A chance to get in the game. Been wanting to jump into the C/N fanwork scene but not sure where to start? Now’s the time. There’s no length requirement on the works submitted, you can focus on drabbles and vidlets and short and sweet projects (or do longer more epic stuff if that strikes your fancy as well).  It’s really entirely up to you. We’re just hoping to provide a fun, no-pressure environment.
  • Meet new and awesome people. Because srsly, I love everyone in this bar. It's a good damn bar. Don't be afraid to say hello
  • Ship like you’ve never shipped before.
  • Tailgate when appropriate. My motto is, if something ain’t a cocktail party, you just aren’t trying hard enough. In that spirit, [livejournal.com profile] aurora_0811and I are hosting the tailgate section (which I think at this point just includes random chatter and ridiculousness, cheerleading and tomfoolery, because I doubt our comm’s talkative nature will be suppressed even during the prompting/waiting period.) So pull up a helicarrier-shaped lawnchair, crack open a cold one and settle in for the festivities. And leave prompts.

And most of all, have fun. :)

SOMEONE RESPECTS MY JOB. OMG!!!! (because, everywhere I turn it's either, oh you at social services, you sit on your hands and do nothing; or, you monsters! You take kids away from their parents! Like we enjoy that bit. *groans*) Thank you :D

Helping others is hard. At first I didn't know how to be objective, or how to look at some situation from multiple points of view; or notice little details. It's a type of work where you constantly learn and improve yourself - the most important thing, I think, is being interested in fellow human beings and having compassion. Everything else can be learned.

There's this girl who lived in absolute hell - and she got herself out, but we helped along, especially in regard of her younger sister - and she stops by my office every so often just to tell me what's going on in her life. Like I'm - I don't know what, someone important to her. And just thinking of her brings tears to my eyes. :)

It's like anything, I believe, in that some people are good at the job and some people are bad at it, and some poeple are good in and of themselves and some people aren't. Unfortunately there are some jobs where if something goes wrong it's all over the news and everyone is up in arms about it, which, sure, bad things deserve to be outted. But we don't always get to hear the good things. Regardless of the people in the job, I think it's a difficult job and the people that have the guts to do it deserve respect for that.

My younger sister has Downs Syndrome, so I've met a fair few social workers and careers in our area. Some of them are good, some of them are bad, some of them just can't be bothered, some of them have things happening at home that distract them. They're all just people. But how many people are willing to do their jobs?

And just thinking of her brings tears to my eyes. :) I bet it does :D
