Summer has always been a favorite setting of romance novelists, rom-coms, and fanartists alike, and for good reason: longer, hotter days, vacations, no school... Summer really is the greatest! So we’re celebrating with seven new prompts just before the official start of summer.
The challenge runs June 1-7, with a makeup period from June 8-14.
Here is the prompt list:
Monday, June 1: Bathing Suit
Tuesday, June 2: Camp
Wednesday, June 3: Ice Cream
Thursday, June 4: Heat
Friday, June 5: Tan
Saturday, June 6: Watermelon
Sunday, June 7: Swim
The Rules, Huntie
Submissions open immediately after the prompt reveal and close at 10:59 p.m. CST the day the prompt posts. If you’re super close to finishing, send me a message and we’ll work something out.
During the makeup period, any prompts are accepted on any day.
Stories/art will be posted in the order in which they are received.
Feel free to share your work on Ao3 or AQ, but please link back to the blog when you do so, and if you don’t plan to submit your work to the blog, at least drop a link to let me know were you’ve posted it so I can provide a link for archival reasons.
How does it work?
Use the submit page to submit your post. Format your post using the AQ Guidelines. (It makes it easy on me and Veronica when we’re reblogging things, and everyone’s pretty familiar with them by now.)
One submission per person per prompt per medium per day.
Feel free to complete all of the prompts, pick a few of your favorites, or just do one that really speaks to you. There is absolutely no pressure. I want this to be a fun, relaxed environment that celebrates the RPDR fan culture and some of the incredible talent we have in the fandom.
Remember that all ships, all genres, and all ratings are accepted. If you write it, we want to read it! I would love to see more ships represented this round!
Please feel free to message me here or at my main blog @janssports if you have any other questions.
Like, reblog, and share this post to spread the word. Let me know if you’re planning on participating. And mostly, happy writing!
