Information is quite right! I don't need a beta, though, so I'm all set.

I'm sorry. I realize I'm a day late, but can I still cautiously sign up for a fic? I've been working on something that I think might make 30.000 words if I can keep up the pace (looking through my fic recently I was shocked to see that I almost made it there with the HP/Buffy xover that will NEVER see the light of day).

It's noncon, ft. Uther taking an unhealthy interest in Merlin and Arthur sort of being a dick, before he remembers to be a hero and then there's some magic and angst and I intend for Merlin to wear a lot of black.
I'll need a beta though.

It's fine - the deadline is flexible - I just needed to put one up because people need parameters to work in. It's an open sign up. I've noted you in the post, and will see what I can do about getting you a beta! Thanks for fic and art!

[korilian]

I checked the beta post and asked someone who was still unclaimed. I'll let you know how that worked out.

[porntestpilot]

Nope! Open sign ups!

That's completely fine! Ah, you're easy for me then! Fantastic! I'll add you to the list! :D

I wasn't sure whether I needed to keep you updated on my writing plans, but I thought I would, because that way I'll tie myself in with great chains of bondage rather than 'possible fic'.

I'm writing, uhm, Susan Cooper Dark is Rising-verse. This is thanks to nicolasechs. I'm only a little way in, but I think the idea is to follow (somewhat loosely) Silver on the Tree, but from Arthur and Merlin's point of view.

Is this a terrible idea? I have an undefined feeling about all this. But it is coming in a great big storm of Welsh mountainside, so it appears I have no choice.

I am also happy to britpick, if that is at all useful.

[porntestpilot]

You don't have to - but it is nice to hear that you have continued to think about it! :D

I don't think following a set plot line is a terrible idea - many awesome stories have come from that. I don't know her work but I think someone rewrote it for the Sentinel and it was pretty awesome.

Ahhh, I looked up the books, and yeah, I think that sounds like a good idea! I'm looking forward to it!

[syllic]

You inspire industriousness, my friend.

I hadn't read the Dark Is Rising books since I was about 9, but I'm happy to have re-read them while on this mad New Year's roadtrip I'm on--Merlin has given them a fantastic new twist.

Merlin (Merriman in the books) makes a fairly significant appearance in the last book, but Arthur's participation is more minimal--he's got a son in DIR-verse, though, which Merlin spirited away in the night, along with Guinevere and sent to the future (!!!)--and I hope to fill in the large gaps that have been left open, focussing on the two of them.

So, yep.

Anyway: thank you for organising this, of course, and here's hoping my rubbishy moronness keeps at bay throughtout this!

Just nipping in to check on the deadline for fics. Is it still the 1st. Feb. or has it been altered to the 20th. now? I'm going pretty well with mine but have to admit that the extra three weeks would be welcome.

[porntestpilot]

It's Feb. 20th now!
