I'm a bit late in getting around to this, as I've been kinda busy over the last few days, but anyway... Here I've gathered together links to all the fics written or posted for the Six Days of Spooky challenge, grouped by author. (If you know of any that I missed, please do let me know!) They're all fantastic, so if you haven't checked 'em out yet, go and do so!
See under cut for big list! )

Also, I want to thank all the participants--I've really enjoyed reading all your spookyfics! I hope everybody had fun writing them too (ain't that what it's all about?) And of course, another "thank you" goes out to everyone who reviewed any of them! As we all know, writers like that. *wink*

And a question for those who participated or considered it )

Notes: This drabble was written for the Six Days of Spooky, and it's kind of... spooky to think that I wrote it well before the recent events around here. It's kind of taken on a new feeling for me, but here it is anyway.

I 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!)
