FKFicFest: Are you in?

I'm working on my prompt slate, how about you?

According to [personal profile] brightknightie, 5 signups are in and 2 more (including mine) are promised. We need a total of at least 9 people to do an exchange.

We've had exchanges every year for the first five fests. So why mess with a good thing? There's gotta be at least two more people out there who want to try their hand at writing some FK (and I know there's still plenty of people who love the show)!

If you're nervous about joining, don't be. The [community profile] fkficfest is a low-pressure thing and we get a few months to figure out what we want to write after getting a prompt slate, and it doesn't matter how much writing experience you have, or whether you think you're "good enough." Joining up is all about reveling in the fandom love!

If you're a newbie with questions, and feeling too timid to talk to Our Fearless Moderator ( you know I loves ya, Amy :) ), just post a question to me in the comments here below. Even though I'm not a mod in the fest, I've been there for every single one, so I can tell you true how this goes down for a participant. Don't be shy, kids--ask your questions, you'll get the answers, and I'm able to ease any doubts. And you can comment anonymously on this entry, if you want, 'cos I'm cool like that (though they'll be screened at first, to avoid bots spamming the hell outta me).

Thanks for the FKFicFest shout-out!

:-) By all means, please do answer away! :-) Fingers crossed and all the lucky gestures that many people will ask you!

Thank you very much for the [community profile] fkficfest/[livejournal.com profile] fkficfest shout-out, too. Yes, exactly, the game is about the fun of playing together, in the camaraderie of our common — yet diverse! — love for Forever Knight. It's not a competition; we all win new stories deploying FK's remarkable premise and characters.

"Together, not the same," if I may borrow Google's Android slogan.

Or, in other words, I bet you can answer questions in fewer words than I can...

I might want to play, but I don't know how!

Hi!
I guess you might call me a lurker, because I've done a lot of reading without signing in, joining or signing up as a member anywhere. However, as a fan, I think I might be ready to step up and do some writing of my own. The problem is, I have no idea how to proceed, other than the actual writing parts.

Are there directions for how to do this? Consider me not only a lurker, but a newbie as well! And e-challenged, to boot!

Help?
