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

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. :)

Re: THE TAILGATE SECTION
That's really amazing! I think anything that helps us make sure we don't lose track of submissions is a great idea. From the looks of things, this post is going to get crazy large.

Re: THE TAILGATE SECTION
It's been fun doing it so far because I"m catching a lot of prompts I missed on the first run through when I was just looking to see what there is. The tagging system is by no means as thorough as I'd like it to be but I have to draw the line on my OCDness somewhere!

Re: THE TAILGATE SECTION
Hey if you want any help with the organizing I'd be more than willing. I'm crazy OCD with tags, too!

Re: THE TAILGATE SECTION
I was caught up but that was last night. *grins* If you want, check over the links and see if there are some better tags I could use. Or more useful tags.

Re: THE TAILGATE SECTION
OMg seriously? I was just putting out the call to ask for volunteer help b/c I thought it might be too much for one person to handle. Let me go check it out.... :D

Re: THE TAILGATE SECTION
I'm on page 8 now and should be at least through 9 by the time I get off the computer tonight!

Re: THE TAILGATE SECTION
So question-- is there a way to alphabetize the prompts or search them to make them easier to find? Are they any kind of order or just whatever order they were entered into the archive?
[identity profile] workerbee73.livejournal.com on July 17th, 2012 03:03 am (UTC)
Re: THE TAILGATE SECTION
Actually, I see now. I just had to click on the links to see them in a list form. And now I see the tags too. I think it looks great. It's probably much easier to scroll through and look at that weeding through the main post. Do you mind if I put a link to this site on the update post? Also, do you need help with archiving/tagging?

Re: THE TAILGATE SECTION
No, please put a link up! If anyone needs any help navigating the list, they can let me know. I should be good with the archiving unless everyone decides they need to post 50 more prompts each! *grins* If anyone has ideas for tags, they can also let me know. I tried to as specific as I could while still being vague enough that the tags could be used multiple times.

Re: THE TAILGATE SECTION

Re: THE TAILGATE SECTION
Yes, it links correctly. I"m having the time of my life! Of course, you could also look at it as me finding a reason not to be writing the prompts! *grins*
