How it works!

Weekly Schedule


So here is how it will work.

  • Prompts/Challenges will be Issued on Friday at 10 AM! You have all day Friday to sign up to participate for that week. Sign ups will end on Saturday at 10 AM Eastern/Standard Time.

  • Drabble/art are due on Tuesday by 9 PM Eastern/Standard Time. This allows three days to complete your drabble or art.

    Note: If your drabble/art is done before Tuesday, you can start posting as soon as the sign up for the prompt closes.

  • A master post will be posted on Wednesday at 1 PM Eastern/Standard Time, and then on Friday, we will start all over again.

    Note: We would ask that you do not post your drabble's anywhere else until the master post of the drabble's has been posted.

Sound good? =D I hope so!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask the mods. We would love to help you out in anyway!

Thanks!

Is there a different sign-up form for artists?

It may be just me... but can someone please explain to me the purpose/reason for having sign-ups in this kind of community?
Secondly, what if you miss the sign-up period or a previous prompt gives some you inspiration after it's been done and dusted? Are you still allowed to post a piece for that prompt?

Actually I've kind of got the same question as the person above me?

Why the sign ups? I've been a member and mod of communities like this in past and I've never seen this before, mostly they were a new prompt on Sunday and anyone could fill it and then another new prompt on the next Sunday. Past prompts allowed filled. This just seems to create more work for the mods.

Not being critical because I think this is a great comm just curious.

When we post up our fics, do we post them onto the community or can we have links to our livejournal pages instead? Thank you ^_^

While the complaints against the sign-up system are old, I’d like to counter them with a bit of praise anyway. I love the weekly sign-ups, because they give me the push I need to finish each drabble. I have the very typical fanfic writer’s problem of not being very productive, so while I have hundreds of ideas, few of them are ever finished. If there were no sign-ups, I might easily let the days slip past until the deadline was upon me, and then simply think “oh well, no one will know that I even contemplated participating”, but once I’ve asked to be signed up, and my name is on a list, I will sit down and write something because I know that my contribution is expected to appear. It doesn’t matter whether I write 100 words of gold or 1000 words of nonsense; I will have written something, and that’s all that matters. So thank you for choosing to have weekly sign-ups. It makes all the difference to me. :)

Is there a way I can view your previous prompts? I've tried looking around but I'm new and extremely confused.
