    ...all of you! :p

    I dare you to do one or both of the following things:

    1. Take some time whenever you're on the boards to visit an unfamiliar era to read and reply to at least one fic. It can be a songfic, viggie, short story, or epic... just one. That's it. ;)

    2. Write and post a fic in an unfamiliar era. Again, it can be as long or short as you wish.


    So, what're you waiting for? ;)

    Cool idea, Myri! I'll have to do that sometime.

    Great challenge, Myri!

    Hmmmm. Where to go, where to go...

    If I don't venture into the 'Before', t_s is going to get after me!

    Looks like I'm headed to before for some Obi-siri or Qui and Dook.

    This is a great idea, Myri! Especially if it's an era that doesn't get a lot of readers (ie, KotOR). Definitely go for this one!

    Great idea Myri!

    Maybe my Padawan will venture into the Before! [face_dancing] Although if she does that, I'll have to post a Jaina/ Jag! ;)

    I guess that means I'll be venturing into "Before", the era of SW I deal with least. I'll reply to something, but I can't accurately characterize characters I know so little about. Although, writing the rise of the Hapan Consortium would be fun . . . as would doing something with a character I'm familiar with, such as Yoda.

    Uhoh, I visit all eras. I haven't read...um...Mara/Anakin romance, but I don't think that exists.

    You don't want to know...

    Well, that'd be Before for me. Perhaps a Qui Gon viggie... *wanders off to consort with plot bunnies*

    Uh... I guess that would be an Obi-Siri, in the During... Oh no...

    All right...I've taken up your dare!

    I've actually written Qui-Gon, and posted the first part on the Before board :eek:

    Now I just hope that Qui-Gon fans won't kill me for poor characterization....

    Well, I'm unfamiliar with reviewing LP's Qui-Gon fics in Before, so there we go...

    Careful what you joke about. ;) ThrawnMcEwok wrote one of those...talk about a brain bender... :eek:

    (That is if you're refering to Anakin Solo)

    Yeah. Well, I"m trying to figure something out because pretty much the only genre/era I haven't done is dark mara/luke romance and darkluke/mara is sooooooooooooooo the current trend.

    So, what do we do once we've done it? I went over and lurked through a story in Beyond... :)

    Okay, read a story (LP's), but I plan on reading a couple more (short on time... [face_plain] ).

    Will start a viggie for a different era soon. (Long fics are not my strong point. ;) )

    I read and replied to a KOTOR viggie in Before; I daresay that's the first fic I've read in there.

    I don't know if it counts, 'cause it was written by one of my favorite authors, but it's a start. :p

    Will write a Before or Saga fic once my muse starts cooperating with me again - I think I better post on my story in Beyond before I start something new, but I'll try to get to it.

    I've read several short fics in Before... Saga's next. I think my Master wants me to read her fic. :p

    I'm currently trying to find a Before plot bunny... I have plenty for Saga, but since I'm hosting it, I don't want to do them just yet. :p

    Anyone have a bunny they want to get rid of? ;)



    Renata: Just reply to the story. That's it. ;) :)


    Everyone: Thanks for taking my dare, guys! :D


    edit - can't speel :p

    I have started A Fool's Hope in response to the write a fic in a style you haven't before challenge. I've never written a dark!mara romance, much less one that starts out with the Alliance having lost at Endor.
