Flash round sign-ups

Hi, and welcome to the third flash round of Be The First! This is a low-pressure challenge to write a fic, of any length, for a fandom that previously had none. That's it! If you want to take part, just reply to this post :)

This flash round works exactly the same as usual, with the exception of one thing: instead of having two months to write, you now only have two weeks. The deadline to submit your fic is at 23.59 GMT on the 17th of September, and the archive will go live at 00.01 GMT on the 19th of September.

The AO3 collection for this flash round is here, and I'll be putting up a fandom promo post in two days.

Good luck to everyone who's challenging themselves with this! Write like the wind :Db

I have a question about fandom eligibility! Right now the only work on AO3 under the fandom I'm thinking about (Mrs. Winterbourne) is a "crossover" that as far as I can tell contains none of the characters from the movie, just has a similar plot set-up. Would this be an eligible fandom? Thanks!

I am writing a crossover for the Octicorn picture books by Kevin Diller and the Nerdycorn picture book by Andrew Root. It will be the first fic for both!

I have a question about the fandom I'm thinking about writing for. Traffic (the film) has four fics in it, but two of those are in Spanish and the other two appear to be RPF featuring one actress who is in the movie and mentioning none of the characters. Would that be an acceptable fandom?

I'm giving it a try! *g* I'm going to try writing something for the same fantasy/horror short story I meant to do last time, except I got distracted and wrote something for a different zero-fic fandom instead.

This sounds super fun! I ant to write something for "The Password Is 002", which is a comic (graphic novel would be a more proper name?) I recently found on Webtoon (:

I would like to sign up, but the thing is, I think I may have a story in this fandom waiting for me under lock and key (unrevealed in an exchange) right now, and for a few more days yet. But in case I'm wrong, let's pretend for now that I might end up writing the first story. hehe

Thurnley Abbey - Perceval Landon

I might come back and sign up with something else if not.

(I've no dreamwidth account). I managed to make some time this weekend, so I'm very happy that I can sign up!

I'll be writing for a Korean novella (super quick read!), A Magical Girl Retires, about a woman coming into her magical girl powers to fight climate change and credit card debt!

Sadly, the crossover I've been trying to finish since the last round has spiraled out of control will not make it in this round either. However, I might have posted something for Ghostwatch (1992) in honor of Halloween being right around the corner.

Kept changing my mind about which canon I wanted to do but I finally chose The Second Female Lead Changes Their Fate!
