Good vs Bad Challenge
Dear members

To begin posting here in the new shiny Malfoycentric community, we are going to issue a challenge. It is an easy one, and without much work for you. Hopefully it will also be a fun challenge.

Here we go:

We challenge you to post two fics or pieces of art of your own making. One must be what in your opinion is the best you ever made, and the other must be the worst you have done. Yes, we ask you to share your most dark and well-hidden secrets with us. Not so we can poke fun at badfic, but because it is interesting to see how artists and authors develop, which is also why we want you to post your best fic/art so we can praise it!

There are no conditions other than the works in question must feature one or more Malfoys as the protagonists. Also, it would be nice if you posted both fics/artses at the same time - whether you want them in the same or in two separate posts is up to you.

We would like you to add notes to your work, telling us why you chose those two particular works.

We strongly encourage constructive commenting, even if some of us have rather... embarrassing fics to show you, some of which deserve sporking more than anything else. However, flaming will be rewarded with a ban_set.

Remember that authors and artists did their best, even when they wrote or drew something which, today, may not seem very good.
W.B. Yeats wrote this in 1899, and it is something to remember when leaving comments or feedback for authors and artists.


'Had I the heavens’ embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.'


Posting is open, and we end this challenge 15th September, masterlist will go up at 16th September.
