The Challenge: To prepare either a chapter update or a one-shot to be posted on fanfiction.net on the first Wednesday of each month of the year. The Purpose: To have every story on the front page of ff.net that day be from non-fanbrat authors. Every story or one-shot will have good grammar and spelling and decent characterization. We're all tired of looking at ff.net and groaning. This is a chance to make the fanbrats go "Huh?" lol. Our first event on Feb 6th was a runaway success with 25 updated or new stories posted. The next is scheduled for March 5 2008. |

Perhaps I'll be able to finish chapter twenty-seven before this ... If not, I'll see what I can come up with. This is a terrific idea, though. I'd love to be able to see the looks on all the fanbrats' faces when a bunch of goodfic randomly pops up out of nowhere, lol. Peace, Queen Jane |

Hell yeah, I'm so in. Those little fanbrats will never know what hit them. But would anyone be so kind as to check my one-shot when its done, and tell me what's wrong with it? Cause I totally suck at punctuation. |

I think any fic that comes from people on this board qualifies as good for "Good Fic Bombing Day" - and beyond! Now ... I must write something. Lest I look stupid that day. |

I just started my story yesterday. It only has to be one chapter or one one-shot - unless of course you've got more ready and you want to post it! I still need it beta'd and then to rewrite what needs rewriting before Wednesday. I am so slow with this and it was my idea lol. |

I want to poke Zevie and tell her to write, but then I'd have to run to avoid the stones. *haz not written anything and is therefore a hypocrite* So maybe we can just sit on the sidelines together and cheer everyone on, huh, Zevie? They deserve some cheerleaders -- and there's the added bonus of possibly scaring fanbrats with our cheers. The only idea I really have for a story that I think it's possible I might run with isn't an Outsiders story; it be Four Brothers, because Laura is a pusher, man, and I'm hooked. So ... yeah. I'ma sit this one out, too. I'm excited, though, for the wealth of good fic. It'll be the most fic I've read in a while. I'll be attached to my computer for hours. :P |
