*takes off the housecoat and puts on the party shoes*
As it seems some of our guests have begun to arrive, we decided to open up a little early!
Welcome to the 'Sleepy Hollow' edition of
firewhiskeyfic! We, your Mods -
sdk and
torino10154, are so glad you could make it. We love everyone today. Feel free to friend us on DW. We promise not to stalk you... much. :D
Your challenges for this month are:
Nearly Headless Nick
Godric's Hollow
Jack-o'-lantern
Graveyard
Harvest Party
Bewitch
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. We try to have a few 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 actors or musicians, the state of the world (a nice, safe topic LOL), 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 though we're getting more diversity, we're still fairly HP-focused. 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, October 3rd. Voting will begin on October 4th and last until Saturday, October 8th.
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!
Your mods will be in and out for a bit as we have a few more things to take care of before we can begin drinking in earnest!
Let's get our drunk on!

Date: 2022-10-01 05:58 pm (UTC)I love having a kid who I said "I'm doing a fest where you're supposed to get drunk and write fic" to, and he was just like "but you're not getting drunk?" and I'm like, "well, I thought I would give it a bit of a go, actually, for once," and he was all, "oh, cool..."

Date: 2022-10-01 06:14 pm (UTC)This afternoon, the priority is paying attention to Aaron Judge’s at bats. So far he’s been hit by a pitch and walked. I’ll drink more after the game and maybe after a more significant nap. I’ve got my ginger ale and bourbon on hand, though.
And I’m excited by the prompts!

Date: 2022-10-01 06:17 pm (UTC)I'm squeezing in my drinking between about 5 and 10 because I've got to go out again at 11-11:30. I probably should have had a longer nap. LOL

4. Fix crash on Wine.
Which just seemed so appropriate.

From:regrets?
Date: 2022-10-01 09:18 pm (UTC)Am I going to regret doing this on the same day? (I may tag out early if I start to crash.)

But check it out, I have s'mores-flavored booze! (and graham crackers for drunk snacking because that seemed important).
At any rate, it is never an official
firewhiskeyfic until I have had my first shot of Fireball ... And we're off!
(On the way home from getting my shots, I passed right by my favorite fast food joint so now I have a cheeseburger and fries and a vanilla milkshake THAT I'M GOING TO BUT S'MORES BAILEYS into.)
Oh and I have a story idea! We're worlds ahead of last round already.
Re: regrets?
Date: 2022-10-01 09:23 pm (UTC)That milkshake sounds DELICIOUS.
I have zero ideas and now that I ate dinner, I am even sleepier :P so I'm having a bit of espresso THEN starting to drink.

Date: 2022-10-01 09:42 pm (UTC)The important thing is that I have been trying to make one of these things since someone told me about it during Snowflake Challenge in January and this is the first one I've managed. I am acutally Here For It. I am calling that the win before I even write a word.
Anyway, I have zero fic ideas, but I do have Salted Caramel Baileys and Japanese gangsters* to occupy me while I am getting drunk. So, who knows, right?
*On the laptop in a TV show. I am pleased to confirm there are no actual Japanese gangsters in my house...

Date: 2022-10-01 10:39 pm (UTC)I have moved on to Mike's Harder Cranberry.
(bonus picture of my sketchbook with the "I read banned books" sticker on the front of it. The stickere ended up being the PERFECT size/shape/color to go on the front of that sketchbook and it still pleases me.)
