Construction Zone

Just a prod note about crack_van's small fandom month in December - sign ups are open.

Fandom overviews are required, but now is a great time to get some of the smaller fandoms on there!

*hints at T:SCC and Burn Notice fans*

Someone has already signed up for Primeval and Hot Fuzz! *squees*

I can't take on anything else, what with the Recathon, but... *prods*

*grins*

I thought some of you might be interested in this, but pellucid and beanpot are planning to host a Ficathon centered around women's friendships with other women.

Personally, I think this is a brilliant plan!

If you're interested, go and vote in the poll about timing here!

I totally missed this until today, but I figured I'd pimp it out on my flist.

Live Long and Marry is a fandom charity raising money to combat the anticipated attempt to overturn the legalized marriage of gays and lesbians in California.

There are tons of interesting things offered, and I don't think it's too late to offer a good of your own for purchase.

Consider it! It's a good cause.


I'm debating offering something, but my inner critic is screaming that I shouldn't even think that I could write for money. XD We'll see who wins.

Hey guys:

There are two communities I wanted to point out, just in case ya'll have interest.

the first is smallfandomfest which runs a prompt based fest several times a year for small fandoms. (Betcha you didn't see that coming!) Anyway, they are accepting prompts now, and all of the following fandoms count:

T:SCC - Psych - Burn Notice - BDS - Tin Man - Hex - The Rundown

Plus, you know... others. But I thought some of my flist might find these in particular of interest. Also, the fest DOES accept crossover prompts as long as the crossover is between two small fandoms.

Go and prompt! Check out some of the requests already made and see what, if anything, you want to write.

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

The second pimp is fic_on_demand where you can make one request per month and anything goes. Any fandom, any pairing, any prompt. As specific or general as you like!

I point this one out because this community does an insane June challenge whereby you post one fic a day for 30 days. I made it through once in three years, but I will be trying again this year, and it helps if there are prompts there that I am capable of writing. So, if you prompt now, you can prompt again in June! Get two fics written for you that you'd like to see, with luck!

One caveat - for the purposes of this community a fic can be as short as 50 words. So if you want something longer, specify!

I've had some truly amazing fics written for me from this community.

Anyway, just thought I'd share. :)
