It’s that time again! I invite anyone who is interested to join me
as I spend the month of December frantically writing a ficlet a day. I will be
writing BBC Sherlock but any fandom is welcome!Join Me!
Below is a list
of prompts—feel free to do as many or as few as you like. Switch them around, change
ones you don’t like, write them all in a month, or take all year—it’s up to you.
I’m calling it an Advent challenge so I can stop writing on the 24th and have the rest of the month off, but you don’t have to write about Christmas
if you don’t want to. Be creative and do whatever inspires you! Write that
trope you love or misinterpret the prompt to fit what you want to say. Just
make sure you have fun!You
can post your ficlets on Tumblr and/or on AO3. I’ve created an AO3 collection
for everyone’s work, which will be open to all starting December 1: 2018 Advent Ficlet Challenge. (If you post all your ficlets as one work with chapters
instead of individually in a series, it makes it easier for others to browse
the collection, though this is not a
requirement.) If you post on Tumblr, use the tag “#2018 Advent Ficlet Challenge”
so others can find your ficlets.Open to any and all ratings and ships!
