multificAnnouncing... finish-a-thon 2007! Yes, we're doing it again.
Remember all those poor, neglected plot bunnies that have been starving from lack of attention, because all those ficathons kept on having higher priority? The stories you wish you could finish, if only you could find the time? Well, fear not, the finish-a-thon is coming to the rescue!
The finish-a-thon is a ficathon, with all the ficathon-like things like deadlines and fellow volunteers to encourage you, but with this ficathon, you write your own ideas. But since part of the encouragement of a ficathon is writing things for other people, what we're going to do, is vote for which story ideas people should write.
This year I've decided to give a longer sign-up period.
Sign-ups are definitely closed now.
The way it works is this:
1) Sign up.
In your sign-up comment, list a short description all the plot bunnies, unfinished stories (apart from other ficathon stories) and vague ideas that you are putting up for voting on. Say what universe(s) it's in, a very brief description, and some idea of what rating and type (gen,het,slash) you think it will be, to give people a good idea of what they'd be voting for.
Also give your voting preference, whether you wish your story to be voted on by participants only, or all interested parties.
2) Join or friend![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
multific, so that you will recieve assigments, important notices, and reminders. I am NOT going to notify people individually.
3) A poll is made, each "question" consists of the potential stories of one participant.
4) We vote for which story we want each person to finish. The winning story in each section is the one which that author has to work on.
5) Each writer works on their winning story, and finishes it by the deadline. They then put it up on the web somewhere, either in their journal, or on a website.
6) I will post a master-list of all the stories, so that people can find them.
7) Everyone rejoices!

What do you mean, not other ficathon stories?
Unfinished stories from other ficathons already have a ficathon for them. This is the Home For Lost Plot-Bunnies that don't have a ficathon of their own.
What if I want to use this story for fanfic100?
(or crossovers100 etc)
Well, this is supposed to be for stories not associated with other ficathonish things... but if it so happens that after you've written it, you find that it fits into your Big Table, well, those challenges aren't averse to using stories from other sources, are they?
Are there any restrictions? This isn't an anti-slash thing, is it?
No restrictions. They're your own ideas, hence, your responsibility. Just let people know, in the descriptions, what kind of story you think it will be, so that they can vote wisely.
What about sequels? Can I include bunnies for those?
Sure. Just give a link to where we can find the previous story or stories.
What if my story is a huge epic that I'll never be able to finish in 8 weeks?
We want to encourage story writing, so, if a story is an epic, still put it on the list, but commit to writing 10,000 words of it, or finishing it, whichever is shorter.
10,000 words? You gotta be joking!
I did say "epic", didn't I? It's not as hard as NaNoWriMo.
Is there a minumum number of bunnies required?
Yes. Three. We need something to vote on, after all.
Is there a maximum number of bunnies allowed?
Yes. Ten. Otherwise we'll never be able to decide. Just pick the bunnies you most want to write.
Who gets to vote on what I write?
When you sign up, say what you would prefer:
(a) other participants only
(b) all and sundry (that is, get your friends to vote so you get a better idea of what your peers want)
I will put a note as part of your poll entry as to what your preference is. I won't be able to enforce the preferences, but we can hope that people will be considerate.
What if I don't know what story to vote for?
Try. It is possible to not answer a poll question. But please do try to pick one story from everybody if you possibly can.
What about my own stories? Do I pick one of mine as well?
Nup. The point is to find out what other folks here wish you to write.
What if there's a tie in the votes? Which story would I write?
Toss a coin. If you can't toss a coin, I'll toss one for you -- just ask.
Arrgh! I never thought people would vote for that story!
People will surprise you. They'll vote for anything, however unlikely you think it. So be prepared to write any of the story ideas you put up, don't assume that people won't vote for the wierd one that you put there half-jokingly.
Is there a minimum length requirement?
Unless you committed to writing 10,000 words of an epic, no. However, it seems a bit pointless to waste an 8-week ficathon on a drabble. But I don't want you to be sweating over length requirements. Stories have natural lengths; try to pick story ideas which would naturally fit into more than a drabble.
Is there a maximum length requirement?
No, but do remember you've only got 8 weeks.
I didn't finish! Can I have an extension?
No. If you have a Real Life reason for not being able to finish (like "my computer died" or "my mother broke her hip") then you can have an exemption. After all, it's your story, you will finish it later.
Otherwise:
(A) post what you've managed to write so far, indicating that it isn't finished. You will then get a week's grace period in which to finish or revise the story. Note that those who do not post anything by the deadline will NOT get a grace period.
OR
(B) Write me a nice note saying, "sorry, I couldn't finish". The flimiser the excuse, the more grovelling required. You get a gold star for participating.
OR
(C) Drop out without a word or excuse. This will get you banned from participating next time.
I finished my story, but it isn't betaed!
As with unfinished stories, if you post something by the deadline, you get a week's grace in which to revise. If you don't post anything, you do not get the grace period. Do not treat the grace period as an extension to the deadline. It is not.
I didn't finish my story last time. Can I still sign up?
If you gave it a go, sure. If you bailed out for no reason and didn't even bother contacting me, no.

Voting preference: all and sundry, please!
Fandom: Harry Potter
Description: "Something Better Than This," my seventh-year fic started before Deathly Hallows came out. Currently, seventeen chapters are up and Salazar Slytherin has just been made Head of Gryffindor.
Type: gen with het pairings
Rating: PG, maybe PG-13
Fandom: X-Men and related comics
Description: "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner," set in Alicia McKenzie's shared Shadowlands universe. Reality has fractured, different timelines, universes, past and future bleeding into each other across "shifts" that can sweep through and separate... or kill, since not every reality is survivable. En Sabah Nur, from a universe in which he never became the villain Apocalypse, reaches Oasis where Franklin Richards is holding a haven together. This becomes exciting and absurd, since many of the people there only know him as a very formidable enemy in many timelines. Four chapters are posted, all from long enough ago that there may be some stylistic disruption.
Type: gen with het developing
Rating: PG, tops
Fandom: Herbie Rides Again/Young Wizards crossover
Description: Isn't the combination of fandoms all you need to know? Okay, Kit's old enough to drive and buys a car out of a junkyard that turns out to be Herbie. Then he and Nita and Herbie all get drawn back into the side-world they visited as part of their Ordeal, for some unfinished business.
Type: gen
Rating: G/PG
Fandom: Star Wars
Description: Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, Count Dooku, and Asajj Ventress stuck on a ship together. Things kind of go from there. None of it is posted, but on my hard drive, Anakin is taking apart the sublight engines while they are in hyperspace, and Dooku is trying to recruit Obi-Wan.
Type: gen, although Asajj probably wouldn't mind if it weren't
Rating: PG
Fandom: Neopets
Description: Lord Darigan's Nebuchadnezzar-in-the-fields period as the Bat-Thing, when he lived amnesiac and acting like a wild animal in Meridell's fields during the Battle for Meridell plot. Focus on his growing friendship with the farmer-girl Sally who looks after him.
Type: gen
Rating: G
Fandom: X-Men comics
Description: An AU with a Cable/Moira pairing and Cable training Proteus. Because there were definitely sparks for that pairing, and you'd think "What is, is" might help a reality-warper with a shaky grasp on reality.
Type: het
Rating: PG-13
Fandom: Harry Potter, Norse mythology
Description: Helga Hufflepuff goes seeking a mentor: Loki's wife Sigyn. I've posted a very short version of this, but I think I could do more with it.
Type: gen focus, though obviously Sigyn/Loki is present
Rating: PG-13 at most
Fandom: Neopets
Description: "Kayla and the Mortog King," in which Kayla accidentally turns King Skarl into a frog.
