"They run off eckeltricity, do they?"

Getting us started a few minutes early!

Welcome to the Dad Bod edition of [community profile] firewhiskeyfic! We, your Mods - [personal profile] sdk and [personal profile] torino10154, are so glad you could make it. We love everyone tonight. Feel free to friend us on DW. We promise not to stalk you... much. :D

Your challenges for this month are:

Arthur Weasley

Ottery St Catchpole

Misuse of Muggle Artifacts

Plugs

Tinker

NEW - Dad


Quick clarification for newbies: you don't have to use all the prompts--though that does make for a fun fic!--but since one of the categories for voting is "Best Use of Prompt" we do recommend using at least one. Also, we added 'Dad' as one of the prompts to help with anyone not doing Harry Potter. LOL In future we will try to have 2-3 prompts each round that are not HP-specific.

As you know, this is the Official Discussion Post. If you feel like chatting, and we hope you do, pop in here and let us know how it's going. Please do not discuss your fic/art. You can discuss ideas, drinks, how wasted you are, your favorite Hogwarts classes, best/worst 'Dad' moments from the books/movies, what you'll do if COVID is ever actually over, or whatever floats your boat. Just don't discuss your fic/art. This is an anonymous fest until after the reveal, and we don't want hints being given as to what you're writing about. :)

And just so we're clear, you don't have to write pr0n, though it definitely makes for interesting reading when characters change right in the middle of shagging because you're too drunk to remember who you're writing about. ;) You can write for any fandom (including original), but keep in mind the majority of our players are HP people. Anything goes!

Once you are semi-conscious, send your UNBETA'D UNCORRECTED fic to this email: fwfdrunkmods@gmail.com Trust me, we can tell if you've messed with it, so don't do it, okay?

You will receive an email from us confirming that we got it. If you don't get an email, we didn't get it. Your fics/art will be due by midnight on Monday, January 24th. Voting will begin on January 25th and last until Saturday, January 29th.

HERE IS THE HEADER! You can put this in the email body or the fic body. Whatever!

(please fill this out to the best of your ability. If you're unable, we will try to complete it for you)




In order to make things easiest on your poor, likely hungover mods, please put your DW username and (if you can manage) the title of your fic/art into your subject line or at least somewhere in the body of the email. Thank you!

Torino is getting us started before rushing off (returning shortly with rum) and Shelly will be along in a bit with her usual bottle of Jack. (Don't worry. Not drinking the whole bottle.) How about you folks? What's the drink that's got you through the last year or the one you look forward to having the next time you're out with family or friends?

Let's get our drunk on!

Also, you must promise ahead of time that you agree to love both Ray V and Ray K. There was a stupid fandom war between people who insisted it was one versus the other, but you are allowed to "Swing Both Rays" as it were. Love all the Rays! (Ray K doesn't show up till the last season. If I'm being honest, he's kinda my favorite, but I still love Ray V for different reasons.)

I think my worst actual fandom challenge experience was a collaborative things where I was doing the art for someone else's story... and they bailed and never posted the story.

But every challenge experience has felt like a bad experience (with the obvious Firewhiskey exception), because of the stress to hit a deadline and fit a prompt that I'm not quite feeling and that nagging sense that it's not good enough. In hindsight, I quite like a few of the stories I've written for challenges, but at the time I was hitting "submit", I was convinced it was the worst thing I've ever written.

Oh, and then there was the time I accidentally offended someone who wrote a story for me because I was expecting one story and I promptly read and commented on it and then a few days later noticed that someone else had written me a bonus story. So there were a few days there where the author was bound to assume I hated their story since I'd gushed about the other one and ignored theirs. (I tried to reassure myself that they'd understand and even made sure to explain, "Oh! I just saw this! Sorry I didn't comment sooner!" but... when reveals happened it turned out to be the exact fandom friend that I know is most neurotic about checking how many comments and kudos she has. And... she kind of quietly stopped interacting with me at about that time. It wasn't the only reason we drifted apart, but it was an unfortunate final straw I think.)

So, yeah, never ever getting involved with anything with designated recipients again. Way too much social anxiety involved.

For Firewhiskey? I really wasn't feeling this story (the last couple years have sapped away all my creativity), but I have zero worries about it disappointing anyone. Like, if I make one person giggle, job well done. It's so nice to write without over-analyzing what other people might think about it.

It would be so awesome if we got three rounds this year!

I'm in the midst of one of my grumpy "I never writing again!" moods and yet I didn't hesitate to join in with this. Firewhiskey is my exception to everything. :-)
