The weekly challenge is now going to be the bi-weekly challenge to hopefully give paticipants more time to finish entries. Thus, meaning that the next challenge will be May 6th give or take a few days.

There also might be a monthly challenge coming, anyone interested?

Another one from Rachel, she was kind enough to rip this CD for me ♥ (I want to marry her musical tastes and have several children with it, sordid little love children - except that I’m already married to Zau’s musical tastes XD)

If anyone wants to volunteer music I’d be happy to discuss about it ♥ just poke me about it

Due 3/1/06

A Lonely Voice - The October Project, and can be found on this CD (which is totally made of awesome, I might add)

( lyrics )

Or alternatively: an artist’s life


Previous challenges can be found on this tag, feel free to ask for re-uploads of the songs and late submissions are always allowed, I'll archive and announce them :D

Mkay~ due to asking, the first weekly challenge is extended to Monday, of course you can submit for old challenges at any time and they’ll be added and announced, but this is a chance for anyone who needs a little more time to work on their ficlet for last week's challenge like me. Damn you writing skill, why did you have to go run off with that fifty peso ho to Tijuana?!

All this means is that the entries aren’t being listed yet, they'll be announced next Monday. Here’s the next challenge for those who want to work on it in case they wanted to do a Valentine's day special or whatnot :3


2nd Week

Due 2/18/06

This is all thanks to Rachel, she ripped this one and uploaded it. ♥

Dear Jamie... Sincerely Me - Hellogoodbye (can be found on this HelloGoodbye EP)



( lyrics )

Or alternatively: Her glorious tragedy

*raises hand*


So if I started a small panfandom weekly/bi-weekly/tri-weekly challenge from my journal, would anyone be interested in participating? (Daily is too much of a strain)

No claiming of couples involved, no strings attached, the only requirement is it be at least 100 words, and linking it to me so I can eventually archive it. Porn is highly encouraged, label it so we can read it first.

I would take turns posting general themes and music for the week’s inspiration, it could alternate, or possibly several possible themes to choose from– whichever is preferred.

I suppose I could have a poll up each week to choose which song would be the theme for the week, the themes would be picked at random. Submissions would be greatly loved :D

Sound good? Who’s in for it?

I automatically draft akuma_no_uta and sunshinepill because I can,
possibly sahara_storm & seii_ryu if they aren’t adverse to the idea – what about you, zauberer_sirin? ego_chan? achiasa? shinsei_kitsune? icetears? souzou_chan? (you could make little sidestory!shorts for MIST :D) sublimeparadigm? Anyone else whose names I can’t recall at the moment?

Even if you aren’t a regular author this could be a good chance to have a truly low-pressure way of trying to get into the habit of regularly writing, and of course, art and original work would be allowed too ♥

Plus this gives me the chance to corrupt you all into my musical tastes ~ ♥
