Six Days of Spooky in Middle-earth
Sep. 27th, 2007 10:39 pmI had a lot of fun doing this last year, so this year I’d like to invite everyone to partake. Because Halloween is cool, and spookyfic makes it that much better.
Six Days of Spooooky in Middle-earth
Autumn leaves are on the ground, the wind is blowing colder, pumpkins are appearing on porches: Halloween is approaching! So what if they don’t celebrate All Hallows' Eve in Middle-earth (as far as we know)? They have ghosts and goblins and black cats and dark lords, and all manner of spooky things! So let’s get into the "spirit"!
How to participate:
--Write up some spooky, scary, or otherwise Halloween-themed fics, and post them between October 26th and October 31st.
--Ideally, post one or more a day during those 6 days, but fewer (or even just one) is fine! But do make sure to post one on Halloween!
--If you want to write more than six, great! Just post them during those days.
--The pieces don’t have to be scary, but they should include something that feels Halloween-ish. (I know a lot of us aren't used to writing spooky!)
--The pieces can be drabbles or ficlets or whatever you like. Art is good too—feel free to draw or paint or show off your wraith-o’-lantern!
--Label and/or tag your pieces as Six Days of Spooky.
For those who would like prompts, see under the cut:( prompts )
But first, repost this in your own journal, and let your flist know that you’ll be giving them 6 days of spooky treats! And while you’re here, take a banner!
Banners: Balrog Dead Marshes Minas Morgul Prancing Pony Black Riders Gollum Ringwraith
(By way of clarification, use these banners however you like--post them with your pieces, use them to let your flist know you're participating, whatever!)
(Also, please link back to this entry. I’d be elated if everyone participating dropped me a comment—and it would help others find your work, too!)
