Welcome to the Spring Fling edition of
firewhiskeyfic! We, your Mods -
sdk and
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:
Pansy Parkinson
April Showers
Greenhouse 3
Wolfsbane
Under the Stars
Bird's Nest
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. From now on, 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, your love/hate relationship with the change of the season, plans you may have been putting off for the last 2+ years, 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 Sunday, April 24th. Voting will begin on April 25th and last until Friday, April 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!
Shelly is getting us started with a nice bottle of Prosecco and Torino is chatting for a bit but not drinking until later as she's double-booked herself. Hooray! 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!
*Yes, this is the only inoffensive Pansy Parkinson quote we could find. Possibly why we've both embraced fanon Pansy!

Date: 2022-04-23 06:11 am (UTC)I'm pretty good about the discipline of Not Looking. I find the typos hilarious when I read tehm (boeth mine and others).

distractions
Date: 2022-04-23 08:47 pm (UTC)Word. It worked to my advantage that I had to start drinking/writing early this round because it meant I got most of my story written before I got distracted in the chat.
the freedom of the FWF
Date: 2022-04-23 08:35 pm (UTC)Indeed. As I was starting to sober up, I started regretting submitting my fic. "Argh, I need to fix it!" Fully sober, I'm now like "Fffft, that's what Firewhiskey is about." (Drunk-me thinks my writing is brilliant and sober-me thinks drunk-me is funny, but half-sober-me had a lot of anxiety and regrets.)

Date: 2022-04-23 09:48 pm (UTC)Can’t wait to see what everyone else came up with, though!
(For the record, I’ve been playing FWF since it was hosted on LJ, so if this is my first real clunker of an experience I am doing alright).
