About
THE GREAT JE FANFICTION REMIX


But wait, what the heck is a remix?

This is the basic idea, borrowed from [info]sga_remix.

Have you ever read a story and thought, "You know, if I'd written that, I'd have [made it darker/lighter, shorter/longer, from a different POV, in a different tense, made the pacing faster/slower, structured it differently, told it in flashbacks, etc.]"? That's what remixing's all about. The idea is to write the story as you would have written it, in your own style; the only things that must remain the same as the original story are:
* The plot. Remixing isn't a about "fixing" a story when you're unhappy with the ending or with a major plot point; it's about different ways of telling a story, and sometimes even about how different viewpoints can change the meaning of events.
* The pairing/characters the story is happening to, because it really wouldn't be the same story if that were changed. If the original story has Pi and Jin caught in the act by Kame, then the remix has to have Pi and Jin caught in the act by Kame; however, if you want to tell the story in flashback form, as Kame relates events to someone else that night...go for it. Also, it doesn't have to have the same level of smut as the original. For instance, if the original had fade-to-black sex, you're welcome to be as graphic as you'd like (or vice versa).
* The setting and timeframe. If the story takes place during the Countdown then that's where it needs to stay. If those details are indeterminate in the story, you can place it when and where you like, so long as it doesn't violate the "no changing plot or pairing/characters" edict.

Great, got it, where do I sign up?
To participate in the remix, you must have at least three (3) finished JE stories. It doesn't matter if it's inter-JE, JE het, or JE/Korean groups. As long as there's some JE in there, you're good to go. Multi-chapters are allowed, as long as they have been wrapped up. Works in progress DO NOT COUNT. Neither do stories with multiple authors.

Your stories should be posted where your remixer can access them. A fanfic archive, your LJ, a website, whatever. You have the option to declare one of your stories exempt from the challenge; your remixer will not be able to choose that story.

Questions, comments and what have you can be directed to [info]jentremix_mod.


WE HAVE AFFILIATES!
[info]je_prompts is a cool little community where writers can sign up with a pairing, group, or person and create 50 works (fics, graphics, etc) based on a table of prompts provided by the community. It's a cool idea to get people to produce, produce, produce!

Want to affiliate? Just PM [info]jentremix_mod and we'll do business ;)
