Just a little hopefully fun idea to push some fan interaction and engagement with each other.
My idea is to start a fanfiction, of however length you want it to be, and post it within the month of February.
At the end, the community votes on the best story, and the winner is known to all as being the best for the 2025 year. If its successful, maybe it continues on next year.
At the end, I will take all of the official entries and make a poll of them so we can vote.
Here are the rules:
1) No screenplays. Has to be told in short story, novella, novel type of format.
2) Can't be an established work. I can't go back and dig up any of my old works like AvPGalaxy vs AvP, or Survivor and post it on here. Got to be new for this competition.
3) It only has to be STARTED in the month of February. Doesn't have to be finished. If you have a long story you want told, as long as it starts in Feb, it doesn't matter when its finished. Obviously the more you have here, the more likely you are to get votes though. If you only type out a paragraph, most people aren't gonna waste the vote.
4) As long as any part of it is released in February, it counts. But the longer you wait, the less votes I would think you get.
5) Post your fanfics in your own thread. Lets not muddle this one up with a thousand different shorts and try to figure out what is what. This can be the communication thread about any ideas/questions what have you.
6) Let me know official entries here, and I will start a list.
7) Subject matter doesn't matter. Light hearted, dark, action, horror, with or without the pred. Up to you. Obviously if you have questionable subject matter, make sure it follows the forum rules.
Nobody is expecting the next Iliad, so shoot your shot.
This is an idea I thought of for about five minutes, but noticed it was on the first of the month. Hopefully there is some discussion.
