Hello again, Nine Lives fans! Now that you've all had some time to process the multitude of changes headed your way, we decided to give you guys something fun to do while we work on The Move! That's right - we're actually that crazy.Â
It's CHALLENGE TIME, y'all!
The Walking Dead is all about balance (or lack thereof, amirite Rick Grimes?) and light and darkness going hand in hand. Life versus death, old ways versus the new, et cetera. We decided to play along those lines and give you Pleasure and Pain as your next challenge theme! Dun dun duuuuun...
You know the drill...
- THE CHALLENGE:Â Write a story centering on the theme Pleasure and PainÂ
- THE DEADLINE: Stories must be turned in by 11:59pm PST September 30. Posting day is October 1.
- THE RULES:
- Send a PM to Fairies Masquerade, Ikkleosu or subversivegrrl stating that you’re going to enter the challenge. This is very important! If we do not get a PM, you won’t be on the list.
- Write your fic!
- Caryl AND MCReedus fics are allowed! We see you, RPFers. Time to stop lurking in the shadows. ;)
- You can submit multiple entries (1 Caryl &1 McReedus, or 3 McReedus and no Caryl – whatevs. We chill like that.)
- Each story submitted must be a minimum of 100 words
- DO NOT UPLOAD IT YET! Wait until September 30 to upload your fic – just like in challenges past, we will be suspending automatic validation for that day for all authors who enter the challenge.
- Submission Day is September 30 – post your fic. It will not appear on the archive, but will enter our validation queue. Make sure you submit it under the Nine Lives Challenge category!
- Posting Day is October 1 – We will post the master list and all of the challenges entries so everything shows up at once. That way, we’re all surprised by what we get to read! Any challenge fics posted before September 30 will be deleted.
If you notice the dates, then you have realized this will be the first challenge posted on our new home! We'll be done with The Move by then! So come be a part of the first new event to be posted on Nine Lives 2.0!
That's it! Hit up the comments section or PM an admin if you have any questions.Â
And stay tuned - we have so much headed your way there will likely be at least one new announcement a day from here until The Move!Â
