Getting to know Johnlock writers
Every day I stumble on a Johnlock writer who’s been writing for years, or one who just started. Most of my fics beg readers to give recs in the comments box, and they’ve given me dozens of wonderful fics.
I started an AO3 collection (open, unmoderated) to introduce readers to authors new to them. https://archiveofourown.org/collections/Johnlock_ficlets
Author’s choice: for each writer, ONE one-shot ficlet under 1500 words in your catalogue that serves as your calling-card. Short fics are easier to start off with than a magnum opus, but often lead readers to multi-chapter fics.
Choose your fic, open it to edit, go down to “post to collections,” type in Johnlock_ficlets, accept the Getting to know Johnlock writers (Johnlock_ficlets) tag, and hit “post.”
Tagging writers new and er not new. DO PLEASE REBLOG! and TAG YOUR JOHNLOCK WRITERS
UPDATE! for everyone who asked:
“Oh my best beloveds,” take the word count limit as a suggestion, not a bludgeon.
Do you not write ficlets? Insert your shortest one-shot that you think works as your calling-card.
Do you post all your ficlets as chapters in one mammoth-fic that is really a collection of ficlets? Insert that!
Is your calling card really 2K or 3K words? Put that in. The parameters weren’t meant to exclude anyone, just to give readers a place to taste small bites of Johnlock writing they didn’t know before.
The spirit rather than the letter, in other words! Thank you for your enthusiasm, reblogs, and contributions.
