Ficathon Frenzy instructions post
We've had a really fantastic run for the 2011 SG-1 Friendathon. But a few people asked about stories that didn't want to be 1,000 words long. So the mods came up with the idea of the Ficathon Frenzy: a chance to write a friendship fic of any length and post it here on the comm for everyone to enjoy.
Here's how it works: go back to the original prompt post and browse through the unclaimed prompts. There are nearly 140 of them! Prompts that arestruck through were claimed and used in the ficathon itself; those are unavailable for the Frenzy. Anything else is fair game.
If you choose to write a prompt, you don't have to claim it. Just go ahead and write! Even if five different people write a fic about Jack and Teal'c and tabloids, or Sam and Janet on a girls' night out, we'll be happy to accept them all. There is no minimum word count, and you can interpret the prompt as broadly as you'd like. The only requirement is that the story must be gen.
The Ficathon Frenzy will run from September 1st through September 7th. During that week, you may post to the comm as often as you'd like, with as many ficlets as you'd like.
Please use the following template:
Subject line: Story title, by Author
Body of entry:
If you paste your story text directly into the entry and your fic is more than 100 words long, please use a cut.
The idea of the Ficathon Frenzy is to have fun -- the more, the merrier! We hope you'll all post signal boosts in your own journals to spread the word. Here's hoping the Frenzy will be as successful as the ficathon itself. :)
Submissions to the comm will remain screened until the 1st, so if you've got a ficlet you want to submit, feel free to post to the comm now. We'll release everything from the queue when the Ficathon Frenzy goes live.
