The Sci-Fi/Fantasy: Books and Comics writing contest is starting up again (that is, if we get enough people willing to write). If you're interested in writing 2-10 thousand words of original fiction in the sci-fi/fantasy genre, please state your interest here. There's some more info and links to previous contests in the thread.

If we can get enough people to get this going, winner earns a week of colors. Seriously, we'd love to have you guys participate. It's a lot of fun, and you get more than just bragging rights.

Hey people! Don't forget to ENLIST SHOW INTEREST for the GRAND NAVY of the GALACTIC EMPIRE SCI-FI and FANTASY: BOOKS and COMICS WRITING CONTEST!! Otherwise I might have to break out the TASER to give you all a little more ENCOURAGEMENT. You can win a week of COLORS. That is PRETTY COOL, am I RIGHT.

I'll think about it. I have an idea, but I don't know how workable it is. I presume the standard TOS guidelines for fanfic still apply?

Correct. Ther will be a prompt, probably the first sentence, but it'll be non-gender-specific and can work with sci-fi or fantasy.

This sounds really really good. For me it's a big challenge since I haven't written something original in soooooooo long.
I'm so going to do this. grin

When is the last day to sign up? I'd a) want to make sure I have some plot bunnies and b) finish somethings I have going before I signed up.

Yes... I'm going to need to start harvesting plot bunnies and making time to write. How much time will we get?

Sounds good to me. I wanted to try last time, but was lazy. This time, I don't think I'll let myself off so easy.

Thanks for getting this together, Nat

Actually, sign-ups haven't technically started. The last few contests we barely had any participation, so Raven and I needed to make sure that there was enough interest. I'll probably start official sign-ups tonight, and I'll PM anyone who has expressed interest happy

I'm game. This sounds fun actually. I haven't written much orignial in years which wasn't historically based, ironically; so, sci-fi should be fun.
