rules

You must read the rules before you post. Consistent failure to follow the rules will result in banning from the community: first and second offense = warning; third offense = banning.

1. You may claim up to two pairings. Threesomes are not allowed, but any kind of pairing is allowed. Pairings do not necessarily have to be romantic pairings, and a pairing can be romantically linked in one theme, but platonic in another. If you decide to claim two pairings, they must be from two different fandoms. Choosing two fandoms means you need to write the 101 ficlets for each couple.

2. You are allowed to collaborate on a given pairing, but this is limited to two people. If you work with another on writing your ficlets, the couple will count as one for each of you.

3. You must request and be approved for your couple before you begin writing. In order to request a couple, post a comment here. When requesting, please make sure you check the claimed couples list first, then list the fandom and the characters’ full names (if possible). Once you’ve been approved, your pairing and your username will be added to the claimed couples list. At this point, you may begin posting.

When you’ve either finished your 101 ficlets, or you decide to renege your claim to a couple, comment here, so the couple can be freed up for someone else who may want it.

4. Try and write at least one ficlet per month. Failure to post at least once a month will result in us assuming that you’re not updating anymore, and your pairing will be taken from you to allow someone else the opportunity to post.

5. You do not need to complete the themes in order. Just write as you’re inspired!

6. Themes are open to interpretation. Unlike other fic challenge communities, there is no extra requirement for these ficlets. All you need to do is write for the theme.

7. Homophobes and haters are not welcome here. This is a community built on respect, so please be respectful and keep an open mind if you’re joining.

8. When posting, you need to use the following format:

Title:
Author:
Pairing:
Fandom:
Theme: (name and number)
Rating: (G, PG, PG-13, R, NC-17)
Length:
Disclaimer:

The disclaimer must be included in all works of fandom and is standard. If you use your own characters, the disclaimer must state that you own the characters. If your fiction includes real people, state that your fiction does not depict real life.

All fiction must be placed behind a LJ-cut despite the length of the work. Anything labeled PG-13 can also be labeled “not work safe” if you feel your content is questionable, but not quite an R caliber. Anything that is rated R or NC-17 must also be labeled “not work safe” next to the rating, due to violence or anything of a sexual nature.

Tags must be placed on all entries. The format of the tags are as follows:

Theme number and pairing: 001-101, name/name

Most tags are already in the list. I will tag your first entry for you, but after your first entry, you're responsible to put your own tags following the tag format.

9. The length of your entry is not limited. You may write a 100 word drabble or a full-fledged piece of fiction. What matters is that you write for your couple for the theme.

10. Do not plagiarize. If you copy another’s work, you will be banned from the community.

11. If you have any questions, please refer to the FAQ.
