Mid-January Fanfiction Games Signal Boost
Saturday, January 26th, 2013 12:38 pm(Or, as Skieswideopen calls it: "enabling." ~grin~)
- The multifandom "Gen-in-January" game on
the_fic_trader remains open through the end of January.
- I will post the annual
fkficfest/
fkficfest survey in the final week of January. (When is best to schedule the ficathon this year? What rules and mechanisms can we improve from last year? How can we attract more players? How can I be a better mod?)
rarewomen is on for 2013! This year, there's no distinction between large and small fandoms. Under 500 stories on AO3 and also under 500 on FF.net featuring a canonically female character? She's eligible if nominated. I played last year and may well play again this year. Timeline:

- The
het_reccers community is presently seeking volunteers to write "Fandom Manifestos," and still needs sign-ups for FK, HL, BSG'78, etc. Separately, they are always seeking recommendations of high-quality het fanfiction in any fandom (no sign-up needed).
casestory Big Bang sign-ups opened on 01/01.
blue_eyed_1987 is running a multi-fandom "Pretend Dating/Relationship" fest.
