So it's been awhile - hey, for New Who, it's been ten years! - so we thought we'd celebrate both spring and our show by running a prompt fest! Even given ten years, there's only so much Jack and the Doctor on screen, after all, and no itch for fic is every completely scratched.
The rules, as always, are simple.
Phase 1: Prompts
From now until
April 7th, midnight GMT (
when is that?) we'll be collecting prompts for the fest
on this post. Leave a comment here with the fic you've been wishing for -- whether it's a sentence or a word, an item or a quote, or a particular Doctor/Jack pairing or point in time, or even a particular scenario you'd like to see, anything goes. All we ask is that you keep prompts under 50 words -- inspire people, don't do their writing for them!
On
April 8th, we'll post the complete prompt list to the comm, and then it's time for...
Phase 2: Writing/creating
Pick a prompt! Any prompt! Or multiple prompts! No need to claim, just put words on the page. Write or create as many entries as you like.
A few comments:
- First, more than one person can use the same prompt.
- Second, there's no length or size or type-of-fanwork requirement - from drabble to epic, from icons to wallpaper to painting, it's all good. (And kudos to you if you can manage an epic within a month. *g*)
- Thirx, absolutely anything goes, so long as it involves Doctor/Jack. No other restrictions, apart from common sense. (Which is to say - no character bashing, please!)
When you're done, it's on to...
Phase 3: Posting
Post your work any time after April 8th and before April 30th.
As always, we ask that you please don't crosspost while the fest runs, but you're be free to repost it in your own space afterwards. (And of course feel free to crosspost announcements now! The more people you can bring here, the better. Who knows, they may even decide to join in. :D)
