ds_flashfiction (original) (raw)

| | Posting to show activity in the comm 'cause it's come to my attention that there are fen looking here and not at DW. If you didn't see the OTW's post, the Due South Archive is going to be imported into the Archive of Our Own very soon! Here's how the Open Doors committee, who are in charge of protecting and importing existing archives, describe the import as working: All works archived on the behalf of a creator will include their name in the byline or the summary of the work. As we import works, we will e-mail notifications to the address associated with the work. Before we import, we'll do our best to check the AO3 for an existing copy. If we find one, we will invite it to the collection instead of importing it.All imported works will be set to be viewable only by logged-in AO3 users. Once you claim your works, you can make them publicly-viewable if you choose. After 30 days, all unclaimed imported works will be made visible to all visitors.Please contact Open Doors with your Due South Archive pseud(s) and e-mail address(es), if:* You'd like us to import your works, but you need the notification sent to a different email address than you used on the original archive* You already have an AO3 account and have imported your works already yourself.* You’d like to import your works yourself (including if you don’t have an AO3 account yet).* You would NOT like your works moved to the AO3.* You are happy for us to preserve your works on the AO3, but would like us to remove your name. You can contact the Open Doors Committee by clicking on that link, or you can email me, Speranza, for help at cesperanza at gmail or speranza at trickster dot org! Plans are in the offing to import this comm to DW as a back-up to protect against loss of the comm if something untoward ("Untoward? What kinda word is that, Fraser?") should happen here at LJ.If anyfen have fic here and don't want it to be part of the import, please PM me by the end of July with author name and fic URL.Tags:admin Just a random post of fannish love to keep Them from killing one of my favourite comms. :) Hi, I'm completely new to the series/fandom, and I haven't finished watching it yet either... but can this comm be revived? I know people are still writing fic, and ds_slash seems to be fairly active, plus I bet there are fans on Tumblr that we can coerce into participating. It would just require some advertisement and maybe a flashier layout, but what do you think? Try to be like the turtle - at ease in your own shell. -- Bill Copeland due to me finding out that ds_match has been deleted and purged due to inactivity, I'm just posting this so this comm appears active and will be left alone.Going to do this to a couple, so sorry if spam. The Running challenge is now closed, and it's time for our standing Halloween challenge. This tradition started in 2005, when pearl_o said:"So, you know, our stories have a lot of variation, but there's still mostly a common genre we all stick to in writing our fanfiction. So what I think would be really cool would be a Genre Challenge -- for all of us to pick a specific genre of writing and write our fanfiction in that, with its style and rules.An incomplete list of possible genres: mystery, detective story, thriller, horror, ghost story, historical fiction, harlequin or regency romance, sf, fantasy, western, drama, children's book, Platonic dialogue, memoir/biography, academic paper, newspaper or magazine article, textbook, religious text, chronicle, guidebook, reference book...Dress your fic up in its Halloween costume -- so much scope to choose from! What sparks your fancy? Stories are due by Friday, November 5, Chicago Time.Tags:admin, genre 2010 challenge mergatrude suggested a Running challenge: write a fic featuring running Mounties or cops, running water or stockings, running deaf half-wolves, running out of time... Whatever you like!It's August 26; stories are due by midnight, September 9, Chicago time.Tags:admin, running challenge We're sprinkling the Sweetness challenge with sugar and spooning it to a close.
