Tis The Season....For Another Fic Challenge!

Post by knightimmortal » Thu Dec 05, 2002 3:11 am

Ah! I have a little bit of breathing time in now, I guess I should announce something that has become a bit of a yearly tradition: The Holiday at FLAG Fan Fic Challenge!

Your mission, should you accept it is to write what you think a Christmas was like for our favorite FLAG members. It can be home, or away. It can be KR, TKR, or KR2K, it can be short, it can be long, let your imaginations go wild!

This one lasts until January 3rd, so you might all want to get writing, and not miss out on this year's holiday challenge! Come on, get them fingers writing! (Remember, if it is over 1000 words, it needs to be posted on a website. On a good note! I have an email address, I have webspace, as do a few others who are more than willing to help your fan fic make it to light!)

Let's break out some holiday cheer--fan fic style!

Ok, but be warned, last year's entry from Vega was "Twas The Knight Before Christmas" (that one is located on her site at http://www.knightwriter.8m.com )

Write the fan fic first, name it later, that is always the best way to go. Sometimes a written fan fic will hit you with it's true name like a ton of bricks.

Claiming names doesn't work too well. The fic is what claims the name in the end. Whoever gets it up first (and keeps it up....complete...on the net) is the one who gets the name. (As a general fic rule.)

It's better to concentrate on the fic, rather than a title. The fic provides a whole lot more enjoyment to a lot larger audience. 8)

And if you want to get a better idea of the titles that are out there, check http://kredwards.8m.com/masterlinks.htm

I'm working on one called "Angels in the Knight" but I haven't gotten very far. This christmas shopping keeps getting in the way of my writing. :cry:

Oh to have free time again.. that's what I want for X-mas!

That was very cute and very well written. :) I liked that it was from Devon's point of view -- you really got his voice right. A devious bunch they are. :wink: And since your first story was so good, I believe you are honor bound to write another one. I think its in the fanfic writers bylaws or something. :D Thanks for the sweet read.

I agree with Knightshade. It was very cute, very entertaining, and there is some natural Muse Law that definitely states you have to write another one. :)
