3 Sentence Ficathon is now closed!

Three Sentence Ficathon is now closed. Really. Really and truly over. Right now. Until next year. Really. Go forth and write more fic without limiting it to 3 (ok sometimes more) sentences! Free the plot bunnies! Write epic Susan/Maglor! Express your Richard III feels in Haiku! Remember it's always better with dragons! Or Bacchus! Tell us about Cassandra and Penelope, Cleopatra and Clytemnestra, Mass Effect and Assassin’s Creed! In fic!

I'm not going to close the posts to comments because already filled-prompts deserve love and attention. If someone wanders in and fills a prompt or offers a new one, that's cool and I'm not going to go all stompy boots.

This has been a wonderful, wonderful exchange.  I've met some lovely new people and have read amazing fic.  This exchange beautifully demonstrates that civility, creativity, and community can still thrive on journaling sites. 

In some places, you never read the comments.  Here, the very best is to be found there. 


My thanks to all of you for a great exchange. I'll certainly host this again next year!

It was terrific!, for all those reasons -- and wonderful about next year. Thank you very much. :)

I had a blast, both writing fic and reading what was posted! And it was a great challenge, limiting myself to only three sentences, even though I'm sure I abused some commas along the way. Thanks for hosting, and I can't wait until next year!

I believe I massively abused some poor semi-colons. ;-)

I didn't use too many semi-colons since I'm not used to using them, but I'm sure I abused one or two over the course of this ficathon too. :D

Haha, I'm pretty sure somewhere my grammar teachers are shrieking with horror t that a sentence does not need to contain quotation marks, parentheticals, dashes, and semi-colons, while being approximately sixty-odd words long.... *grins*

My list of abused punctuation includes commas, semicolons, dashes, parentheses, ellipses, and even a colon, I think. I'm a bad, bad person...

You can track tags? How?

Click on "Track This" at the bottom of the entry. Then click on "More Options." It should give you the options, among other things, of being notified when [personal profile] rthstewart posts an entry tagged "3 sentence ficathon" (or anything else from a drop-down list of tags).

A fantastic challenge: singlehandedly responsible for biting me with the writing bug again after a 3 month hiatus and a twelve-thousand mile(extremely stressful) migration. Now off to write that District 13/Assassin's Creed crossover. Parkour in Paris!Whee!

Oh, I know I've said this again and again, but: this ficathon has been so much fun! Not only for filling people's wonderful prompts, and getting to read so many brilliant fics for basically every silly idea I have ever wanted people to write, but also for allowing me to meet so many lovely people! Thank you all for being so amazing, and I'm already looking forward to next year! :D :D :D
