Rhink Ficathons

[rhinkficathons]

Is there going to be a Winter/Holiday 2019 ficathon? I've got some prompts and very broad ideas.

Hi there!

Unfortunately, we no longer run regular ficathons through this account as interest in participating slowly dropped off.

That said, we do run an annual @mythicalsecretsanta during the festive season, and we'd be absolutely delighted to accept your suggestions for tropes and prompts our creators can use. If you head on over to the Secret Santa blog and send your ideas in just like this, we'll be sure to note them down for next time.

Thanks for checking in, though!! I'm excited to see what you've got.

— Ren

Special Ficathon Announcement

Attention writers, readers, and lovers of Rhink Fanfic!

Despite the fact that the true GMM break is just beginning, Ren (@loudspeakr) and I have decided to cease the weekly ficathon prompts after tomorrow’s final installment. The submissions have slowed to a halt, which is completely okay — there are lots of fandom activities going around Tumblr these days, and we welcome them! The purpose of the ficathon is to fill the gap when GMM is sparse, but there’s no reason this particular project needs to be the only way that happens. Keep on having fun with Tropetastic Tuesdays, 30 Days of RandL, and anything else going on!

With that said, please consider all the prompts presented since Good Mythical Summer began to be open to use and submission until GMM Season 12 begins. We’ll still be happy to look over and post your submissions here on the blog.

Watch for the last set of prompts tomorrow, and have a great rest of your summer!

<3, Christy (a.k.a. @missingparentheses)
