Writer's Choice
Pick a genre, pick a character, pick up your pen!
Name:Writer's Choice - where you pick the fandom
About:Writers' Choice (100 to 1000 word drabbles)

Moderators: [info]taibhrigh, [info]elismor and [info]lasairfhiona

Here's how this works:

On Monday (before noon, Eastern Time) one of us will post the challenge for the week. Our challenges are now open ended. The drabbles can be anywhere from 100 - 1000 words. Writers' Choice means you get to pick the genre (anime, movie, tv, original, etc). You get to pick the characters, etc. We have a few rules, but we'll get to them in a moment. Here's an example:

theme: friday night at the movies
example of drabbles: (1) Highlander: The Series - the first time Richie went to the movies with Duncan and Tessa or (2) Stargate: SG1 - the first time teal'c is taken to the movies

Get the idea now?

There are 51 challenges each year (see the note on the bonus round as to why there are not 52).

The Rules:
(1) No real person fiction. No real person slash. [Yes, you can mention Harrison Ford in a drabble but the drabble can't be about Harrison Ford's friday night at the movies.] We get that RPF/RPS is the hottest thing in fandom since sliced bread, but Writers_Choice is not the place for it.

(2) Label your posts. Each should have the following minimum information:

Title:
Fandom:
Challenge #:

Additional information that should be provided when applicable:

Pairings:
Crossover:
Warnings:
Notes:

(3) All genres (het, slash, gen...heck, even Mary Sue) are welcome. Please label your posts as such if they contain material that could be considered "mature" in any way. If you are uncertain about whether you should label, please either contact one of the moderators or just play it safe and label. All ficlets that contain material that could be considered "mature" need to be placed behind the lj-cut tag.

(4) Answers to community challenges (drabbles/ficlets, etc) may contain content of an adult nature. 'Adult' implies nudity, violence and/or sexual themes as described in the written word. All stories of an adult nature should be placed behind the lj-cut tag and should
include a warning in the header text before the lj-cut explaining that there is adult content. [EX: Warning: This drabble contains content of an adult nature.]

Other:
(1) Feedback is not required, but it bumps you up on the Karmic Wheel.

(2) All challenges will be marked as Memories for this community so that they can be easily found.

(3) We'd like to request that people use the option of the cut tag for longer entries, but we won't be policing it. Just be mindful when posting longer (line-wise) drabbles.

(4) And we have an FAQ that might help answer other questions.

Bonus Round:
Well actually, it's what we like to call the Open Challenge. Every year around the winter holiday season, we will open the challenge period for about two weeks. During this period you can write drabbles for any and all of our past challenges. The more the merrier!
