For anyone still subscribed to this comm: I have finally ported it over to Dreamwidth, under the same name. Currently pondering a nostalgia round this fall, so subscribe there if you're interested!

With love for all the fun we had here,

A quick note: One of my long-ago summer drabble sequences for this comm has now been (brilliantly) podficced! Here's the link:

Facing the Music (podfic) -- podfic by blackglass (aka xdiorix) story by graycardinal

"No, worlds music, with an S."

(Or "How Xander was bounced around the multiverse by his MP3 playlist.")

Still working on 2012... hopefully by year's end. And that'll be the last of them!

Now that all the requests are in, let's return to a semiregular prompting schedule!

challenge #118: genderswap

Someone isn't the gender they were in canon-- either canon. Why? How? Or do you just want to show their altered self/selves in action? Write exactly 100 or 200 words for the prompt. Use whatever means or explanation you please; be creative and have fun. Any crossover touching the greater Buffyverse (Buffy, Angel, Fray, and/or the comic seasons) is welcome, but please post each drabble behind a cut, and tag your posts appropriately.

This challenge will run until APRIL 15.

THIS IS THE SIGNUP POST. If your name was in the winners list for the closure post? This is where you comment to specify your request.

Here are your instructions:

1.) Pick one (1) or two (2) fandoms-- and, heck, I'm not going to list them all out again. I'll be generous and say, anything I've committed more than 1000 words in over the last twelve months.

2.) Name one (1) character or one (1) pairing of any type.

3.) Give me a brief prompt or phrase. (You may specify "do not includes" also, but try to keep the list short; and I don't do NC-17 or incest at all.) Or-- you may ask for a one-shot connected to any of my eligible-fandom past works.

My available roster of fic is at the AO3. (The fandom list at the top of the profile page is especially handy for sorting purposes, if you're looking for favorites or checking which fandoms are eligible. )

Any questions or concerns? Feel free to ask. But get those requests in ASAP!

( 2010 Reward FicCollapse )

2011's index will have to wait a bit; two are still pending. But hey! Only two this time! *grin*

I'd forgotten I'd promised to finish the old winners' indexes! 2007 and 2008 indexes were posted last year; this index contains the fic written for the 2009 Mod Birthday Competition winners.

In 2009 there were a total of 15 participants, resulting in 11 winners:

I'll tackle 2010 next, then put up the new request post. Enjoy the read!

34 drabbles were posted for challenge amnesty week, in 26 crossover fandoms.

Thanks to kerravonsen, tvashti, avamclean, jerseyfabulous, maevebran, beer_good_foamy, kerrykhat, and graycardinal for playing.

challenge amnesty will continue for the next week; but the competition is done!

For lo, I am back from my birthday and pleased with your fictive offerings. *grin* We have 11 winners this year, who have earned a combined 18,000 words! So, start thinking about what you might want to request. Whatever you ask for must be a one-shot, though it can be set in the 'verse of one of my previous fic, if you want.

Your request should include: (1) one character or pairing; (2) one prompt/phrase; and (3) one fandom or cross of fandoms. I'll put the request post up later today.

I'm currently willing to write in any fandom(s) from the following list: Buffy/Angel-verse; Stargate SG-1/Atlantis; Firefly/Serenity; Eureka; Star Trek XI; Fast and the Furious series; Leverage; The Mummy/Mummy Returns; The Dresden Files; Falling Skies; Person of Interest; Terra Nova; or Grimm. (Anything else, you could try convincing me, but I give no guarantees.)

I don't do NC-17, or incest. Just about anything else is fair game. Ask here if you have questions. If you're going with a previous 'verse, my available roster of fic is most easily sorted through at the AO3.

( Here are the final standings:Collapse )

series: A Little More than One Million, B.C.
fandom: Terra Nova
disclaimer: The words are mine; the worlds are not.

notes: Spoilers specifically for TN 1.6 "Bylaw" and 1.7 "Nightfall", with bits from further episodes. These drabbles complete the series. They end before the season does; but the stories I want to tell after this point can't be reduced to this format. So. More later; but this is it for now.
