So this happened and I have no words to adequately describe how taken aback I am. All I can say is thank you and it’s not enough. You have been there for me when I’ve needed it most and you mean the world to me.
Now… to celebrate. 10 days ago, I posted the master list for a writing challenge that was, in my opinion, pretty damn successful. I’ve had several requests to do another round, so, without further ado, round 2 of the Album Fanfiction Challenge has been given the green light.
Have you ever been listening to an album and the lyrics just spoke to you, inspired a work of fanfiction in some sort of way? That’s been happening to me a lot lately, so I thought why not make a challenge out of it.
You do not have to be following me [mrs-squirrel-chester or @mamapeterson] but I ain’t gonna lie, it’d be kinda awesome if you were.
Can be any pairing or ship, reader-insert, OC; or even no pairing. Write what you want to write.
Pick a fandom, any fandom. BUT if you decide to write for more than one fandom, please pick a new album for the new fandom.
Can be fluff, angst, smut; whatever. Or maybe just a headcanon kind of thing.
No word limit. You want to write a poem or drabble? Maybe something longer, like 15,000 words. Your fic can also be a part of another challenge. Even if it’s part of a WIP. Go for it.
Pick an album that has inspired you. It can be old or new, any style, any artist, anything that you want.
Include the song title / album information anywhere in your summary or author’s note. Let’s give credit to these amazing musical inspirations.
Post your fic by May 31, 2017. Time zones don’t matter. As long as it is May 31 where you are when you post, the it counts.
Your fic can either be a story based on the song, or just have it somehow highlight the song, BUT make your fic relevant to the song you choose, please! (Basically, please do more for this challenge than having a song from your album playing in the background.)
If you also post on AO3, please share with the mrs_squirrel_chester_Album_Fanfiction_Challenge.
TAG ME IN YOUR FIC! If I haven’t liked or reblogged within a week, let me know!
