Small Fandoms Flashfiction

As of 4/17/17 I have imported this LJ community into the mirror community on DW: smallfandomflsh.

When new challenges are posted, the challenges will be posted to the LJ comm, after which a new import will be done that will carry the new challenge, as well as any fic written and posted to the LJ comm during that two week period, over to DW. This means that there will be some lag time between the challenge appearing on this community, and it appearing on the DW community, and right now that lag time is approximately 2 days. When the import queue isn't quite as long, the import will happen much quicker, but there will still be a lag time of several hours.

When posting a challenge response, please post your fic or fic announcement to either community, but not to both. If you post to LJ, your fic/announcement will be imported to DW with the next import. If you chose to post to DW, your fic/announcement will only appear on the DW comm.

If you have any questions you may comment here or e-mail me at spikedluv @ livejournal.com.

Thank you!

We now have a mirror comm on DW: Small Fandoms Flashfic.

Beginning this week, challenges will be cross-posted there. If you have a DW account, please feel free to post your fic responses there.

Cross-posting to both comms is allowed.

For those of you who would like a different (and perhaps easier) way of browsing our complete list of challenges, rather than clicking on the '!challenges: complete list' tag to view them numerically, you can check them out here in alphabetical order.

Hey, folks! I want to apologize to those of you who might have been expecting participation banners since my announcement that we now have them. The artist has neither contacted me nor replied to my comment &/or PM to her, but it appears that she will no longer be making them for us. Sorry for getting your hopes up!

Okay, I seem to have just lost Challenge #110: Imperfection. The tag was there when I tagged the new challenge (because I use the previous tag and just edit it with the new number and prompt), but when I refreshed the comm, the post was missing, as was the tag I'd just used.

Anyone have any idea what happened? Should I repost or wait for LJ to get over whatever fit it's having right now?

Thanks!

ETA 8/29/13: And apparently it's back now, so I'm going to delete the placeholder 110 post, though I'm leaving this one here as a reminder what happened just in case it disappears again. *g*

The holiday season is upon us, and for many of us RL tends to get in the way of fandom fun. For that reason there will be no new challenge issued this week. Instead, we’re going to take the opportunity to hold an Amnesty Period and encourage everyone to check out all our previous prompts (with the additional reminder that all of the past challenges always remain open for writing, even after the challenge has been officially ‘closed’).

The Amnesty Period will run for four weeks, so we'll post a new challenge on Wednesday, January 13.

You can find the complete list of all 43 past challenges here.

Have fun!

Feel free to suggest future challenges in the comments to this post.
