Welcome to the Dragon Age Big Bang!
A fandom Big Bang encourages writers to produce a new, long piece of fanfiction, with the challenge of a deadline. Each fic will be paired with an artist, who will work with the author to create a new illustration based off of the themes and vibes of that work.
Each team of participants in this event will produce: One (1) new, complete Dragon Age Fanfic of at least 25,000 words, and at least one (1) art piece inspired by that fic.
Completing these on time will ensure:
The fic (with embedded art, linked to the artist) is included in the AO3 Collection
The fic and art will be advertised on the Tumblr for the Bang, tagging both artist & writer
Unlike an exchange, this event is a collaboration between the artist and writer. All participants are valued equally in this event - artwork created for the Bang is not a commission or "free art". Participants strive to inspire each other with their works, while having fun and showcasing their individual work and creative effort.
Longfics can be anything you like, within our sparing content guidelines! Artists are asked to make an earnest effort to capture a vibe or scene of the fic, respect character descriptions, and collaborate with the writer on that content.
