Fiction wish list
Posted: Sat Nov 13, 2010 11:44 pm
OK, with Christmas a month-and-a-bit away, I have a proposition to make.
Basically, this is a thread for everyone to post their requests for a fanfic, and writers who wish to volunteer write one (or more!) of them in time for Christmas and post them in the Writing forums (or The Creative Pen if non-Groening stories, or our sister forum if they're Venture Brothers fanfics).
Writers who wish to volunteer can do so in this thread, and add some specifics, such as:
*which fandoms you are prepared write for ("original fiction" counts as a fandom for this purpose)
*if you will only write in certain genres (e.g. romance) or other formats (e.g. flashforward, flashback, crossovers), or alternately if you have ones you won't write
*how long stories you are prepared to write (e.g. 100-2000 words)
*how many stories you want to write
*any other restrictions on which requests you'll take
Those who want to make requests, be as vague ("a Venture Brothers fic") or as specific ("a 3000-word prose Venture Brothers time-travel fic with a pairing between a young Rusty and Triana") as you like. Just stick to our fiction guidelines (i.e. no explicit sex, extreme gore, or offensive stuff). Just ask for the fics you want to read. Now's your chance!
And yes, volunteer writers can also put up requests for their compatriots to do.
No competition element. It's all for good fun, allowing readers to get the stories they've always wanted, and writers to get out of their ruts and try something new. If two or more writers want to write for the same request, go for it!
~~~
So, to start things off, here's my writing volunteer card:
Fandoms I can write for: The Simpsons, Futurama, Venture Brothers, Yu-Gi-Oh (including abridged version), "Lord of the Rings", "Discworld", "Final Fantasy VI", "Final Fantasy VII", "Final Fantasy VIII", "Ico", "Psychonauts", Edgar Allan Poe's works, original
Preferred genres and formats: Any, really, but not interested in crossovers at the moment. Will be equally prepared to write script and prose.
Length limits: No upper limit, but obviously don't expect any huge epics
Number of stories: 2. I might do more if any prompts interest me, but two are all I'm binding myself to
Let's get this fella off the ground.

Also, my requests:
*Anything Venture Brothers. We need more fanfic from you brilliant minds.
*Venture Brothers fic about the Baron and his minions.
*... or about the cast's college days.
