OCTOBER CHALLENGE #27

Oct 27 - Make a Difference Day: write a drabble/ficlet where Lorne makes a big difference in his lover’s life. Single word prompt: change

WEEKLY WRAP-UP for third week of OCTOBER challenges!!

RL is kicking my ass, the payoff being this is late. But still:

15 FICS and TWO set of ICONS by

October Challenge Mission Briefing (please do not repost on bulletin boards)

Okay folks - I'm back on board and jonesing for more fics, wallpapers, artwork, and icons!!! It'd be great to see a really big push for our last week of October. So, I thought I'd remind everyone I've promised a goodie to everyone completing a fic for every prompt. That's only 31 fics, ficlets, drabbles, manips, or icons. Really, guys, I'm easy (ask anyone who knows me or those three Klingons in the bar in Denver - shut up, Elaine!!) Anyway, where was I?

Oh yeah - goodies! I know I'm asking a lot, so I thought instead of one goody, you guys deserve a bunch of goodies!! In fact, a goody bag. Or in the case of having to post it through US mail, a goodie box.

The Goodies:
- For starters, I have three 8x10 set pics of Lorne I purchased at Dragoncon...I'll throw in colour copies of those.
- I also have an 8x10 team pic with Ford, I could throw that in as well as an 8x10 of Sheppard and Caldwell on the bridge of Daedalus that is to die for. Again, I only have one of the originals, so these would be high-quality colour copies.
- And, if you're interested, I could add the pic of Cliff Simon in which he is nekked but posed strategically (damn!).
- A box of JellyBellies from my hotel.
- AND a copy of my video footage from Dragoncon, about three hours of mostly Kavan stuff, on DVD or VCD, your preference. It has three of the SGA panels, Kavan and Cliff Simon's panel, footage from the Walk of Fame autograph sessions, some of the costumes, and some crazy stuff, too, like Gary Jones saying "I'm receiving SG-11's IDC", Cliff Simon running across the floor to give me the nekked pic of himself. I'll even throw in a CD of the screencaps I've made from the footage.

Does that sound like incentive enough to get you write a few drabbles??

I'm open to suggestions on anything else to add, money is tight for me right now, (I have access to all the above stuff so it really won't cost me anything) but again - if you've got suggestions on what will get your little fingers flying, I'm all ears. I'm trying to get a banner done for those completing all 31 prompts.

So - submissions are always accepted - although I'll make a cut off of Nov 1 at midnight to qualify for the goodie box. That gives an extra day to wrap up the last prompt.

( Wanna see the breakdown so far by writer? )

ETA: Just to be clear - I will send a box of the above goodies to every single person completing all 31 prompts. So even if all you did was write a drabble for every prompt, and even if you haven't written anything yet, that'd mean you'd only be 3100 words away from the DC footage, the pictures, the jellybellies, everything!

So, have I enticed you to write-manip-icon-draw-or-drabble more yet? If not, what can I do to lure you in.......
