If you haven't already done so -> GO READ!!
I would already like to thank the people who did a little writing for it, and left prompts. I thought it was okay, not a big turn out but I wasn't expecting much of a big crowd anyway. I'll definitely do this again some time. =D
I just posted my own contribution. I have another one in the works but it's giving me a little bit of a hard time. Teddy bears are just not that cute when they refuse to cooperate. As it turned out my muse wanted to have that Forever Knight drabble out first. So...
Memories - Fleur & Nick, Kate - SGA/FK sorta - G
Prompt: Lookalike!Fleur sends Nick into a cascade of memory.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
On the other matter I recently posted about and where I got some serious feedback, where some agreed and a few disagreed, I have yet to make up my mind. But I did have sort of a thought earlier that this could be a fun experience for me (although I'm still wondering about where I'll go find that extra time). I don't want to disappoint people, who were looking forward to this. And I owe it to all of you to do this.
I will not yield.
I'm just a little ant in a big anthill, but anyone who has seen Antz knows that even a little ant can make a difference. I am going to set my issues aside for this one, but for future reference this will not happen a second time. (And I will read the rules more closely too.)
So whoever is on that filter... You better be prepared! And keep your arms and feet inside the vehicle at all times.
So far
****************
Secondly, if you want to be on
Just want to point out that the Kate Heightmeyer Drabble-a-thon is still running until the end of February. Until now
I am also tackling a prompt after having some issues with my muse. I am determined to try as many as I can. And that's where my second name in the title comes in.
To all Forever Knight people, I have a question:
Did Natalie know that Nick had a sister?
You may take as many prompts as you like and write as many fics as you like. No need to claim. You can even take several prompts and pour 'em into one (long) fic if you like. Just don't forget that the main focus should be on Kate (Stargate Atlantis), Fleur (Forever Knight) or Alice (Star Trek Voyager).
You may post your ficcie in the comments of this post, or if you prefer to link to it that's fine too, as long as I and everyone else know where to look for it. I intend to close this at the end of February, the 28th to be exact, and then create a masterlist at the beginning of March.
Subject-line should include the title, characters (pairing or otherwise) and a rating.
Anything is game, as long as you keep it civil. Don't go bashing a character in your fic, or write underaged persons doing overaged things with adults... You know what I mean.
Okay, I think that's it... Now onto the prompts:
( The list of prompts.... )
And so this concludes the list ... NOW GO!! WRITE as if your life depends on it!
thank you for the wonderful prompts - I'm going to put them in some form of order, add my own, and then I'm going to make a post and officially open this thon for writing.
Keep your eyes open cause I'm hoping to be back later today.
Work was .... remember Daniel in One False Step when he's angry with Jack ... that's how I felt today. And to top it all off, I did some serious overtime to catch up with what I should actually do, not the thing I did today which is not my job to do.
Oh yeah... apparently the 29th is today and a thursday - Prompts for the Kate-drabble-a-thon are still welcome cause I mixed up my days. So, extension until I say stop which is probably saturday.
There are a few delicious prompts out there but a few more wouldn't go amiss. =D
*must create
Oh yes, title-wise I was going to say something Stargate-y. I want to make an overview of 5 years of Atlantis, highlighting the good and bad times the team went through, and I have found the perfect song by Immediate Music, from their Globus-Epicon album - Orchard of Mines. It'll be a long hard work, which will kill me ten times over but I want to do it no matter what.
And you can still leave prompts until the end of the week, Friday, for my mini-drabble-a-thon which as it turns out will be as much about Kate Heightmeyer as it will be about any other characters Claire Rankin ever played in her life so far. But I don't mind at all... :D I'm a happy fangirl.
Watched too much Tin Man ... if that's even possible. I now have a plotbunny following me everywhere. It's like a lost little puppy, a tin puppy.
It did help me out at work today, so I'm sorta greatful it's there, but I also have two drabble-a-thons to think about. For which you can still leave prompts btw -> Claire needs some more lovin'!
And now onto mine...
The prompting may begin! It starts today and ends on Jan
You can post as many prompts as you want, and make several prompt posts. All pairings and ratings are allowed, and they are all Kate - centered by default.
You can use episode prompts, word prompts, quote, song lyrics, or even a brief summary of what you wish to see written. When prompting for a ship, or friendship, indicate it in your prompt with a / for slash and a & for friendship.
Things which are commonly not allowed, like minors doing adult things, RPF, promoting of illegal stuff and such are off limits here too. I really don't want to get in trouble here with anyone.
Snag as many prompts as you want - you don't need to claim them, and write as many drabbles, fics or stories of epic proportion as you'd like. The drabble-a-thon begins on February 2nd (officially anyway) and lasts an entire month which gives you more than time enough to come up with something (I hope).
IMPORTANT NOTICE: I have people on my flist that I know write in other fandoms in which Claire starred as a guest actress, one of them being Forever Knight. Now, because this is my drabble-a-thon I would like to tell this one person in particular (*winks at
When the prompt-period closes, I will work hard to have the prompt-list up on the 1st of February. More information of posting the ficcies will follow then too.
Now go! Prompt! Spam! Have fun!
If you should have further questions, just leave them in the comments (with your prompts) and I'll try to answer them as best as possible. And pimp... the more, the merrier.
First of all -
However, you can rest assured yours will be a whole lot popular than mine. =)
Mine involves the character of Kate Heightmeyer... *crickets chirp* ... *tumbleweed passes by*...
Who? O_o
Anyway, I have a free day on friday (which also happens to be the 23rd of January - Happy B'day Claire!) which means I can spend a lot of time behind my computer, not thinking of work really. So, in honor of my free day =p and because there can never be enough (there's too little in fact) Kate-fic, I shall organize a drabble-a-thon.
Keep in mind that I'm going on a limp here.
Let's say I collect the prompts, from Friday the 23rd until next week Wednesday the 28th, so that I can put them in order and then start the writing from the 29th onward until the 28th of February which gives you a whole month to come up with something or many, many, many little drabbles (something between 500 & 1000 wordcount, more is okay too =D).
Everything is welcome - from crossovers to general, ships, friendship, slash, ... any pairing - with Kate as its center piece.
Not allowed are minors doing grown-up things with adults (you know what I mean), incest, non-con - you know, the kind of stuff that isn't allowed on the big fic-a-thons either. I don't want to get in trouble here.
And because I happen to like Claire in other stuff and I have some folks on my flist I know watch(ed) this other stuff too - I'm all for some fics with other characters she played, such as there is ... *grin* .... Fleur de Brabant (Forever Knight). But, you know, point that out in your comment with your prompts, otherwise I might get confused.
Okay - I realize there might not be so much response coming so I'm just gonna go with the flow and see where this leads...
You may now tear my post apart and point out all the flaws.
WTF?!? Why does the region 1 disc have extra features and has one hour more than the region 2 version. 0_o Is there anyone out there who happens to have that region 1 disc and would be willing to rip it for me?
Enough joking (although it helps), here are a few that I did and didn't delete afterwards.... and the four that will not make it cause of the previously mentioned kicking-out.
( SGA icons - the not so popular ones )
Okay - getting to the point and throwing out my very first poll ever on LJ. :p

Oh yeah... deadline of this ficathon could potentially be the 23rd of January 2009 (Claire's b'day).
*snugglesquishes
Now, I need to go and pimp this on GW in the Rare pairings thread and anything relevant.
1) It is possible that we'll be adopting a new kitten though me and my sister, and my aunt, have to whine a little harder with the parental units. But we're already looking for suitable names for the kitten. Either a spotted girl, or a grey tiger boy - So, anyone have any good suggestions?
2) My muse was rudely yanked back to reality and I created two wallpapers for two of my flisters, rewards for their help in beta and one a late bribe for entering the

I don't think they'll mind if anyone else uses these on their desktops. =)
Author's Note: Snerched the prompts from
lostcityfound's 3rd year anniversary ficathon back in July. SGA isn't mine. Characters aren't mine either (even though my muse likes to believe otherwise). Just borrowing them for a little bit of fun.
Comfort was adopted for beta by
merlins_sister. Thank you for helping me out. :-) I'm working on repaying you. I have a wallpaper in mind. What size should it be?
On The Rocks, Poison Ivy, Welcome Home & South Africa were beta'd by the wonderful
gospikey, who has done more than her fair share of work, and I'm quite sure I'm knee-deep in debt. :-p

And now onto the 5 new ones to be added to the collection. I'm going to link back to the stories on ff.net cause otherwise I'll be spamming the flist with my posts, I fear. Now I can stick them in one post instead of several separate ones.
