All (Re)Mixed Up Challenge - Sign Ups!
Hi ya'll! It's been a little while since our Fabulous No-Pressure Laissez Faire Challenge and we're kicking off a new one! Announcing --
The All (Re)Mixed Up Challenge!
Like last time, this'll be an easy-going good time—but instead of submitting prompts, you'll submit UP TO TWO of your fics/art for someone else to REMIX!
Wait, what's a remix?
Check out the Remix Redux FAQ for more info. Basically, someone else will re-create your work by taking a different point of view, using a different chronology, etc. We here at hp_unfaithful think that infidelity stories make a great genre for remixing – to get either another character's POV on the issue, or to see the affair from a slightly different angle.
Cool! How do I sign-up?
Just fill out the template below in a comment to this post to sign up.
Once you've linked your own stories/art, return to this post over the next week or so and choose someone else's fic or art that you'd like to remix. You can reply to their comment if you want (ie: if you want to chat about the remix), but you don't have to! You can keep your choice a secret if you'd rather, until you finish and post the remix.
When is the deadline?
The due date for posting your remixes is October 23, but you can post sooner than that if you like. In fact, the sooner, the better! If you post early, your remix might just get more attention than if it's in a glut of last-minutes posts on the day of the deadline. ;)
We don't have too many rules and notes of caution, but here they are:
1. If you sign up and post a remix, there's NO guarantee that someone will pick and remix one of your works. This isn't meant to be a gift exchange. Similarly, the works you make available for remixing might be remixed by multiple authors/artists.
2. If you sign up and make your work available for remixing, we assume you'll be posting a remix of someone else's work. No one's going to beat down your door if you don't, but you want to see more infidelity-themed work out there, right? Also, it'd be really, REALLY terrific if you could help us keep things balanced in this challenge.
3. The only requirement for remixes is that the central theme be infidelity; there are no other format or content-related restrictions (e.g., regarding slash/het/gen). So for example, if your original work features Harry/Ginny and no infidelity, keep in mind the remix of your fic could involve Harry cheating on Ginny with Draco. Similarly, if you're an author, the remix of your fic might be art, and vice versa.
4. Remixers may only remix works explicitly made available for remixing by the original author/artist. This is pretty basic—DO NOT remix something unless that work is specifically referenced in a sign-up post below.
Sign-Up Template – example: (please include links and make sure the fics/art are unlocked!)
Sign-ups will close on August 31. After that, no new links will be accepted, but participants can continue to peruse the links and remix however many stories/art they wish before the deadline of October 23.
