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

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. :)

Out of curiosity (and making no promises because my muses are fickle as *hell* this summer) - are there any particular elements about pern/the weyrs/etc that you would particularly like included?

(I'm kind of fishing because I have the main bit plotted through but would kind of like to flesh some of it out a bit better and need ideas.)

I was just looking for anything in this 'verse, to be honest :D

But if you want ideas help, I am down with that. Hmm, what do you mean be 'particular elements' and what kind of fleshing out are you looking to do? Events, settings, people? Cultural, political, historial, societal? Creating an atmosphere?

Well, ok - they're both riders. That's established. and the time frame is probably something around/just past(ish) Dragonflight (though I'm not planning to bring any major plot or political elements in because then it would turn into a massive beast of a fic that I'd never be able to finish. ;) ) but just little moments or things about Weyr/rider life you might be particularly interested in seeing? I dunnow. Just thought I'd throw it out there. ;)

A hatching is always fun, be in the hatching that one of them Impresses at or a hatching they attend or that's in the background. I like how crazy and 'welcome all the people!' weyrs get when there's a hatching. Hmm, something about life for female riders in the weyr? At that time period Lessa was changing things up a bit for Gold Riders. We don't generally hear much about the women riding greens (or others) until the later books. Taking care of flight gear? Training? Thread? Aftermath of Thread? Are there any pranks or running jokes between trainnee riders? 'Cause a lot of them are only young. What about between the teams within a weyr? Any pranks or jokes or mini-politics going on there? And, y'know, if they're both riders, a flight and sexy fun times would not go amiss *wriggles eyebrows*.

Hope that helps! :D
