H/C Bingo update! Deadline's Jan 5th and I'm always on the absolute last minute with this one, so expect like 3 scrappy fics published overnight...

The orange is ones I've officially done, the green is for fics in progress, and the lilac is for ones where I have an idea of what to write. I still want to write for a fandom I've never written for before - the original idea was a Harry/Draco fic but I'll see how I go.

I usually like to fill two lines in a cross shape for the deadline - which would be fine for this round as drugged and healers are both good, but crucifixion?? *wibbles*

'Finish that Fic, Merlin' is back, bigger, and better!

Come join us at [livejournal.com profile] ftf_merlin for a friendly competition to help you finish as many WIPs as you can!


Signed up for this today with the entirely too ambitious goal of 9 WIPs. Sadly, I could have signed up with more...
Got my h/c bingo card! I'm pretty happy, even though I know there's a few I'll never do (crucifixion, pandemics and natural disasters, looking right at you). I'm pleased about body image issues and trust issues, and torture and drugged have good potential. Also hugs! How cute?

I really wanted arena! Finally time to write my Merthur a/b/o porn fight! Also wanna do some femslash this year cos I don't think I have before with h/c bingo. And I might challenge myself to write one in a whole new fandom, whatever that might be...

I got my prompts for the H/C bingo challenge where you write for a small fandom. I was leaning towards Endeavour but Humans fits these prompts a bit better I think... Or I could sack off all the other prompts and go with Endeavour and lost childhood... any thoughts?

(it's due tomorrow night so I'm shamelessly crowdsourcing inspiration)

wasteland lost childhood
destruction / natural disasters stranded / survival scenario
I don't know how to be in fandom without Aggy.

WILD CARD sensory deprivation
hypothermia medication


New prompt card! These all have to go together in one story... I'm thinking Merlin, although Humans and Endeavour is always a possibility. Any ideas?

H/C Bingo

Jun. 19th, 2016 06:40 pm
I got my card for h/c bingo!

Bit of a daunting one this year, I think I prefer [livejournal.com profile] clea2011's... I can't see myself doing things like heart attack or major illness to be honest as they're a bit close to life, but hostages and taking care of somebody are catnip.

Also I got alien abduction again! I'm writing porn for it this time, I swear...

I noticed a lot of people are doing the Write Every Day in May thing! I am psyched to see it from y'all although I am terrible at things like that myself - so I'm trying the baby challenge of Write Some Days in May...

Anyway, this is my prompt set for hurt/comfort bingo's May challenge.

suicide attempt bodyguards
blackmail trust issues


It has to be for a small fandom so I'm doing Humans, and you can use as many of the four prompts as you want. Blackmail is popping out at me so far, although trust issues wouldn't exactly be hard for poor Leo... Any suggestions?

Here are the fifteen fic recs I did for the March challenge on hurt/comfort bingo. My prompts were hostages, nightmares, and insomnia.

Title: Soon
Word Count: 813
Rating: R
Warnings: Murder, slightly cracky violence
Summary: Based on this tumblr post by [livejournal.com profile] 5leggedcricket: 'There is no way that Mary Collins was Merlin’s first kill. Have you seen the ease with which he killed her? He didn’t even have to think about it. What exactly had Merlin been up to in Ealdor?'

I was reminded I wrote this recently when we had the Merlin rewatch! So here's my alternate take on The Dragon's Call :)

Heroine Big Bang! Big, Mini & Tiny Options.
Author Signup | Artist Signup | FAQ



I only found out about this recently but it seems like an awesome thing to do if you have any fic or art ideas lying around for a Merlin lady (or a lady of any fandom). My plan is to write a Gwen POV fic in which her and Morgana set out to rescue Merlin and Arthur after they've been taken hostage. Aiming for mini-bang level (which is 5k - you can also write 1.5k, 10k, or 25k) but we shall see.

Anyway, just wanted to put it out there in case anyone else was interested, sign ups are open until April 1st :)

Hey guys, was hoping to solicit some opinions! I tend to automatically write in present tense but I wonder if it puts people off. I'm about to embark on another long fic which feels like it probably should be past tense but I have to fight all the time while I'm writing not to slip back into present! Any thoughts?

[Poll #2034519]

On a side note, do you think different tenses suit different kind of fics?
