Question rather than a comment: I have an idea that I like but don’t have enough time/energy/yada yada to write. What’s your take on giving the idea out to several authors?
—
I’m a big fan, personally.
You can do so via your own blog or you could even run a Prompt Meme on AO3.
Just posting a prompt like it’s a fic is against the TOS, but creating a prompt meme challenge is a great way to put an idea out there for anyone who likes it to fill.
Whatever way you do it, I’d recommend letting the authors know that the idea is available to more than just them. If you’re handing it out in DMs, for example, they might be surprised to see the same idea being used by someone else - and that might not be anicesurprise.
What do the rest of you think? Have you given out ideas before? What method worked well for you? And if you’re an author, would you mind getting a prompt that you know was available to multiple writers?
I saw this ask and I was confused - I received a comment saying something similar (and asking to remove the tag) when I did the relationship study part of your short fic challenge…so where does the line sit?
That person is right. AO3 isn’t a social media site. It’s an Archive. And you know what’s important in archival studies? Knowing what’s in a file.
If a work is about a ship, then it’s appropriate to tag that ship.
On a site like tumblr, it’s considered impolite to tag the ship if the post is negative. On AO3, it makes sense to tag the ship since the ship is in the work. It would be polite however to indicate elsewhere in the tags or the summary that the work is negative or a vent fic or discussing aspects of the ship that not everyone will want to read.
AO3 allows meta posts. It allows vent fic. It doesn’t allow harassment like “people who ship this should go to jail” etc. If someone thinks a story crosses the line, of course they should report. But if the entire basis of their report is “I don’t like this work” then I don’t know that PAC will do anything except write back and say, “Then I suggest you don’t read it.”
(except PAC would be nicer - I’m a blogger, so I can be mean)
I am adopting a 100% open mailbox to recieve Asks to answer! Every single ask answered and published will come with a illustration, big or small guaranteed. If I do not find an ask appropriate to publish to my blog it will be answered privately.
I have a Ko-Fi and while I’m slowly building it up so you can find all my work everywhere, I’d really appreciate any and all support that could be given.
Absolutely fantastic. I must ask one question however: does he have a spiky metal win g with claws at the end, or his regular arm set to miniature mode?
Because both of these are incredibly funny to me.
I chose to make his foot of spikey metal! It has little spikey talons! For I believe there would be nothing worse than being in the dark of Goocio’s Wing and hearing a *plap* *CLANK* *plap* *CLANK* that steadily gets loudly as he comes barrelling towards you out of the shadows
