The Argonathon

[revena]

So, I had sort've intended, last night, to come home directly after babysitting, and get a bunch of writing done. Instead, I ended up chatting about CYR teaching issues with Master Hwang until midnight, and then when I did get home, I... Well...

kphoebe and I read The Eye of Argon out loud to each other. And then, amid choking gasps of laughter, I had The Best Idea Ever.

That idea, my friends, is the argonathon.

If you've been attracted to ficathons, but reluctant to actually participate, this one is totally for you. Seriously! How much more low-pressure can you get? You can sign up anytime, there's no exchange factor, and you can choose to use or ignore the prompt you're provided with, as you please. There are no requirements for length or genre - you don't even have to get a beta, if you don't want to. All you have to do is finish your story by the end of October.

And your source material for constructing your fanfiction is The Eye of Argon - how can you be intimidated by that?

So sign up for argonathon today! And don't forget to tell all your friends!

OMGWTFBBQ! I've been reading it out loud to my mom and brother and we are all it intense amounts of funny funny pain.
It is unfortunately on hold until we finish watching the Roast of William Shatner.

I just might. Are you taking only written type entries or can we be creative with the assignment?

It's basically the most open-ended ficathon of all time.

So, yeah, sure! Some kind of non-written fanwork would be fine.

Oh, good! Boy, that arrived very quickly... I think I only sent it on Friday.

Keep an open mind on the ficathon. Argon-inspired poetry could be great! ;-)
