The 2021 Fanfic Reading Challenge is now live!
Happy New Year everyone! May this year be better than… whatever 2020 was. *side-eyes it* To that aim, I propose a little bit of fun with the fanfic reading I know we’ll all be doing this year anyway!
Remember: this is open to ALL fandoms and ALL ships and ALL topics.
Spreadsheet format found here. Simply save a copy off of this link, and then you can edit it (except for goals) to your heart’s content. The Rules are listed as a page on the Spreadsheet for your convenience but I will be adding that to the Tumblr as I work on it.
PDF version. For if you wish to print it out and manually mark it all up. (Though it is slightly out of date compared to the Spreadsheet version.)
A Google Docs version, which is just a list of the goals. (Also slightly out of date, so just be sure to double-check!)
I can make more simplified versions of the list if someone needs it, within reason.
I’m also including a BLANK copy of the Reading Log I’ve been using (at least, its most basic format), which has been invaluable to me to keep track of everything I’ve been reading. Save a copy and then go nuts and adjust however you like, as I did in my copy, linked below:
Example: Juulna’s 2021 Fanfic Reading Log.
Here, also, is a copy of my 2021 Fic Reading Challenge Spreadsheet, with adjustments made to create a line each for the tasks that have multiple fics required to complete them. They also include collapsible buttons to make sure it continues to look streamlined. Feel free to copy!!
Though the Tumblr is by no means complete and does not have all the answers someone might need, the Ask box is certainly open, and if you can’t find your answer on the Rules page of the spreadsheet, ask away!
Have fun, and get to reading! (I already know you are. :P)

Please signal boost and share this post, as this is a new blog and it has very little reach—also, I only have reach into a bare few fandoms, so please share with any and all shippers and fandom-lovers and fic-readers you know! Share the fun. ;)
P.S. I currently have one person interested in this but if it turns out they can’t do it (or if, maybe, people would like to choose between two) I’d love to have two, maybe three, badges for this event near the end of 2021. One for completing the main challenge, one for completing everything, and a participation badge as the third ‘maybe’. . I’d even consider negotiating a commission at a later date, depending on how much interest there is in this event! :)
This post includes a few rule changes/adjustments to hard mode.
This post here has a comment bingo generator along with a list of my suggested ‘tasks’, with details how to run the generator. Have fun with it! I know comment bingos definitely help me when I get slightly stuck with what to read next. :)
