THINGS TO KNOW

1) Sign ups are requiedSo that we know who is taking part, what fandom(s) you're writing in (to assure it really is a small fandom) and to make sure you meet the word count requirement (see below), you'll need to sign up. Also because we'll need to know who to actually permit access to the community to (we'll be having locked ( Read more... )

Ah, I think I'm out by rule #5, to clarify, what is your definition for underage? Any mention, or scene of a character that is underage via a flashback etc within the fic, considered underage?

In my DA fic Alec, was experimented on just before his 16th birthday... It'd be a flashback scene, but one that's pivotal to the plot.

Underage as in underage sex. If he's under 18 having sex in the fic, then yeah.

I've added a bit to the rule to hopefully clarify. I don't mean you can't have people in your fic that ARE under 18, just no people under 18 having sex. :)

Technically he doesn't have sex, not even by Clinton's definition, but its still within the gray. Where it definitely has a strong sexual non-con component. That ultimately I don't think would qualify, *pout*

So unless I come up with another bunny, and to be honest I've already written over 1o,000 wc and plotted out the rest...

Oh well, good luck!

forcryinoutloud September 25 2009, 21:29:44 UTC

Aw. :( That's too bad. Here's hoping another bunny bites you. ;)

This may seem like a silly question, but if we do this it'll be our first BB ever and we're kind of nervous.

Do you accept sign-ups for co-written stories?

forcryinoutloud September 29 2009, 15:21:55 UTC

Yup, you can sign up as co-writers (but both of you need to officially sign up and join the community). :)

I don't see Castle listed here as one of the accepted fandoms but there are Castle prompts in the prompts post. So I take it there is a Castle option? :-)

*headdesk* Thank you! I totally forgot to edit this post after I found out Firefly/Serenity had its own Big Bang!!

sgamadison September 30 2009, 22:56:21 UTC

Aw, you know now you're going to tempt me out of my comfort zone to try my hand at a little Castle fic, don't you?

forcryinoutloud September 30 2009, 23:01:43 UTC

Hee!! And this is a bad thing??? *snerk* *\O/*

Just a quick note, there actually is a Primeval Big Bang: primevalbigbang but it isn't one where you get are with your fic. :)

forcryinoutloud October 10 2009, 14:08:58 UTC

Damn. Thank you for letting me know. I ran a search for Primeval Big Bang before I announced the fandoms and nothing came up. *sigh*

Since it's the last day though I'm just going to go ahead and leave Primeval in there (I don't think anyone has even signed up for that fandom anyway).

curia_regis October 10 2009, 14:13:48 UTC

Hopefully nobody will sign up from the post in primeval_denial. I don't think it matters too much anyway. I certainly don't mind and I'm co-modding the Primeval Big Bang. (I just edited the interests so now it should show up should anybody search "Primeval Big Bang" again.) :)

forcryinoutloud October 10 2009, 14:20:52 UTC

Had I known even a week ago I would have removed Primeval and chosen another fandom but it just doesn't make sense to change out the fandom now on the last day. But, the way I look at it, if someone actually does sign up for Primeval, the more fic the better right? I don't actually expect anyone to sign up though. If there's a big bang running that Primeval fen know about they'd obviously choose that one over this one to sign up for. :)

But thanks for editing the interests!

Hi, I was considering doing a very late last minute sign-up for this BB (still debating) and was reading the rules and noticed you said no RPS? Yet you have Hewligan listed as a small fandom. So I'm just a little confused there...

ETA: Ahh, never mind. I think I understand: it's simply a crossover between other shows in which Hewlitt and Flanigan have starred.

forcryinoutloud January 21 2010, 19:02:21 UTC

Hewligan, in this instance, does not include real person slash. It includes any character that David Hewlett has played (with the exception of Rodney McKay) paired with any character Joe Flanigan has played (with the exception of John Sheppard).
