suzannelgnz Posted June 10, 2009 Report Posted June 10, 2009 I also like the idea of a song-fic competition, but Can we wait a couple of weeks so that everyone who has exams for school/uni is able to have a fair chance?
Jen Posted June 10, 2009 Report Posted June 10, 2009 ^ Most definitely, I'm just looking for expressions of interest at this stage. even when we issue the challenge you will still have a month to get something together.
Pengzilla Posted June 19, 2009 Report Posted June 19, 2009 So.... are we all thinking a song-fic? I know it's supposed to be a "challenge" and in the past we've had themes and words and rules and guidelines and everythingggggggggggggg....... but maybe this time we shouldn't. I don't know how many people usually enter, but I'm sure in the past it hasn't been THAT many. So what if we have less rules? It might encourage more to join. Tis up to you. I just thought I'd try and get the ball rolling. If anyone still has exams or commitments but they'd still like to join in then post now. And post your opinions and ideas, obviously.
Jen Posted June 20, 2009 Report Posted June 20, 2009 It looks like song-fic it is. Maybe the only restrictions should be that it has to be a songfic (obviously) and a one-shot (so the word limit somewhere between 2000 or 3000 words). I can ask another staff member to host, so I can enter and that way they are completely impartial to the entries if you would like? Unless someone else wants to offer?
jenlee Posted June 24, 2009 Report Posted June 24, 2009 Does a staff member have to host? I would be happy to do it. I haven't written anything H&A related since the last challenge and don't think I will be able to for this one, but still love challenges and would love to be involved. I also love the song-fic idea, they're always fun.
Jen Posted June 24, 2009 Report Posted June 24, 2009 ^ No, not at all. You are more than welcome to host the challenge. It was just an option if we couldn't find one.
whispered_envy Posted June 24, 2009 Report Posted June 24, 2009 I am expressing my interest in this challenge! It's a great challenge! I love writing stories based on lyrics!
tessalove Posted June 24, 2009 Report Posted June 24, 2009 I'd be interested in this!! Hav'nt written many songfics but i'd love to enter!!
Jen Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 So, is this getting the go ahead? How about this for guidelines: - Write a one-shot story based on the lyrics of a song. - Lyrics can be included at the start, end or within the text. - Entries should be PMed to jenlee (If you are still up for hosting, just let me know here!) by 5th September (Is that enough time?) Anything else about it is up to the writer (as long as it is Home & Away related). How does that sound? Date can be changed if necessary.
