Attempts at Fiction by a Non-Existent

Fanfiction Contest
KKM: Go Make Yaoi
[info]scottishfae
The Readers Haven Chosen is hosting a Fanfiction Contest currently.



You can click on the banner to learn more details. There are two prompts: 1) Summer Vacation, 2) In Memory, and any and all fandoms are welcome (not just anime, but everything). There can be up to 5 winners in different categories, and the Grand Prize winner wins a $20 gift certificate to a bookstore of their choice. The rest of the prizes are listed in the main contest post.

This is going to be great fun and a potential for money prizes, so don't let this opportunity go to waste. And if these two prompts don't inspire you to write, keep an eye out on the community for future contests. And, while you're at it, why not "rec" your favorite fanfics while you're at it (or check out ones that have been rec'd thus far). The May Polling will end soon, so get in your last minute votes for your favorite recs.

So I was going through my jump drive and found some old stores that I never finished, but the problem is, I've forgotten where I was going with them. I was going to try and take them up, one by one, but I wanted to get opinions on which one first. I'll post each story under its own cut and then have a poll cut at the bottom. Thanks for your input!

Story 1
Fandom: Naruto
Pairing: Naruto x Shikamaru
This is supposed to be a rocky continuation of the one-shots previously posted about this pairing.Reading more...? )
Story 2

GAARA AND NARUTO FANDAY #1


As part of [info]thatreevesgirl's Gaara x Naruto Fanday, I'm listing off 28 prompts for 28 days. Obviously they won't be all posted, but my goal is to right something for each prompt listed below. I open up the floor to others to also try and write for these (or other) prompts.

Here is how the prompts work
I have 28 prompts listed with definitions (all provided by Dictionary.com). Like the prompts themselves, the definitions are just suggestions. Play on words, connotation (as opposed to the denotation listed), and other interpretations of the prompts are welcome and encouraged. If you do choose to do one of the prompts, don't forget to list off which one at the beginning of your submission (JULY 28, 2008!) and if you wanna lay some love to [info]scottishfae_fic for the prompt challenge, all the more merry (though certainly not required!).

Good luck & I hope to see lots of Gaara x Naruto love on July 28th!

GAARA AND NARUTO FANDAY #1


What is it?
It is a gathering of online support for the Gaara and Naruto pairing. We want to show the fandom that GaaNaru or NaruGaa is still a valid and loved pairing

What will we do?
On the designated day we will join together as a community and spam deviantart, ygallery, LJ communities, our personal LJ's, Narutofan, ff.net, aff.net, etc with our fanfics, fanart, fangraphics and other Naruto and Gaara love.

When is it?
I'm hoping that we will have a strong showing of support to warrant a second one, but for now, the very first Gaara and Naruto Fanday is Monday, July 28, 2008, or the last Monday in July (since Mondays are shown to have the most people browsing the art and fiction sites).

What is the purpose?
To show that we love Gaara and Naruto, but also to spur other artists and writers into liking the pairing.

A/N: This is an ongoing story written for the LJ Ouran community: [info]ouran_contest. This is my first multiple chapter fiction for Ouran, and I’m trying to keep the characters as “in-character” as possible. I do feel, at this point I’m failing, and this first chapter may get rewritten. My goal is to have each additional chapter (all chapters will be “stand-alone” to some degree) be another challenge from [info]ouran_contest.

A lot of times how I write stories, one-shots at least, is that I envision and scene and then write it out and go from there. I started my first Kyou Kara Maou this way but I've gotten stuck on where to go. It's only two pages thus far, but perhaps people will be able to recommend a direction.

Sorry guys, UE is coming a day late. On top of having to scratch and rewrite the first section, I realized while doing my inital proofing that I hadn't finished the middle section. Now I have to go in and do that before I can post. It will be up tomorrow, even if I have to call in sick from work to do it (and I hate calling in sick right before payday). Sorry again.
