TtH Drabbles

If you've played before, you know how this works; this is the time every year when I throw the annual fic fest, complete with prizes.

The rules are simple. Write as many drabbles for the challenges here as you can, between now and my birthday. I'll be officially closing it on the 11th this year, six weeks from now. And for every author who writes six or more drabbles-- that's only one a week!-- I will match that wordcount, at a minimum. The fic you win can be crossover or not, centered on any character you choose, in any fandom I know well enough to offer.

Yes, this is a slight difference from before; you no longer get a 400 word bonus just for finishing, but on the other hand, you will earn more with double drabbles than regular drabbles. This is a strict word-for-word match (provided you at least write six drabbles), mostly due to RL demands on my time. (I'd been debating whether to run it at all, but I decided to do it one last time before passing the torch on the comm.)

I'll give weekly status updates; then, the weekend it closes, I'll put up a claims post for you to make your requests. REMEMBER: THIS IS THE LAST FEST, FOLKS. If there's something you've been dying to make me write for you, this is your last chance to make me do it to a wordcount of your choosing!

I'll post the new challenge, the first of the Mod Birthday Drabblefest, in a moment. (I will not accept for the fest any drabble not related to that week's specific challenge. No anticipating amnesty week. Sorry!) Leave any questions related to the fest on this post.

7 drabbles were posted for challenge #111, three truths, in 7 crossover fandoms. Thanks to graycardinal, missambs, kerrykhat, and jerseyfabulous for playing!

FYI: Since twistedshorts is still going, I'm extending the triple drabble allowance until August 31st. Starting September 1st, we'll be back to drabbles and double drabbles only.

challenge #112: the fiery passion of a thousand burning suns

Time to get emotional. What kind? Who's feeling it? And why? Write exactly 100 or 200 (or, until the 31st, 300!) words involving the prompt. Define it however you please; be creative and have fun. Any crossover touching the greater Buffyverse (Buffy, Angel, Fray, and/or the comic seasons) is welcome, but please post each drabble behind a cut, and tag your posts appropriately.

This challenge will run until SEPTEMBER 11.

0 drabbles were posted for challenge #110, burning the candle at both ends. Sorry for not closing it sooner-- with all the outages, I kind of lost track.

If you haven't visited twistedshorts yet this month, take a look: the annual August Ficathon for Buffyverse crossovers 300-3000 words in length is still going on. And to that end, I'm temporarily going to expand fic size limits in this comm to include triple drabbles: feel free to post answers to this challenge over there, as well!
