| This March will mark Daily Deviant's EIGHTH birthday! Gee, that's, like, forever in internet years, right?! ;D We're tremendously pleased to have been a part of the fandom for so long. We have big plans for this year's celebration, and we want everyone -- both members and watchers -- to take part in the festivities.
Our members will be creating works based on other pieces previously posted to Daily Deviant. That could mean art based on fic, fic based on art, sequels, prequels, remixes, spin-offs... whatever they can think up.
Watchers, you'll have two possible ways to participate in the madness fun...
First, you're invited and encouraged to contribute your own pieces based on any works previously posted to Daily Deviant. Post these to your own journals and send us the links; we'll collect the links and post them periodically (depending upon how many we receive when). Pieces must merit an R or (preferably) NC-17 rating. Fic must have a minimum word count of 1,000 words total -- but for this birthday event, you're welcome to break that up into (for example) two 500-word ficlets based on two different pieces of art or ten 100-word drabbles based on ten different fics. A contribution with both fic and art will have no minimum word requirement.
Second, you'll have the opportunity to make requests of specific Daily Deviant members to write/draw extensions of their own pieces. For example, you could say, "I'd love it if wackywriter123 would write a sequel to Bill and Tonks' Excellent Adventure," or, "Hey, awesomeartist456, I'd really love to see what happens the morning after your Snape/Sirius piece A Lot of Booze and Then a Little Snack!" Note that no one is required or obligated to fulfill any of the requests. We think, though, the requests will spawn quite a number of bunnies and result in some great pieces! A post for putting in requests will go up soon, so ponder the possibilities...
The big birthday bash will be taking place throughout March and April. Watchers, if you wish to contribute pieces, you'll need to post them to your journals and send us the links during those months.
Further details as well as the post where you'll be able to make requests of our Deviants will go up soon, so be on the lookout... |
