And we're off!

Prompting has opened at [community profile] deeply_horrible|[livejournal.com profile] deeply_horrible! I have been jittery since yesterday with anticipation, and cannot tell you how delighted I am by the prompts that have already appeared on both sites.

For those of you reading from IJ, [info]deeply_horrible contains links to the prompting posts, but will not host a prompting post of its own.

Also, [livejournal.com profile] bvizen has created a blood-chillingly wonderful new banner, which you can see here. Do go tell her what you think. ♥

And now, off to read more of [community profile] hp_friendship and then -- yikes! -- formulate prompts of my own ...!

dashing in to say ...

... with apologies if you are seeing this twice ...

Prompting for Bring Back the Bastard opens tomorrow! Anyone is welcome to leave as many or as few prompts as he or she wishes. All pairings (with bastard!Snape) and ratings will be accepted. Even if you don't think you'll have time to create an entry, please do feel free to stop by and leave prompts.

Bring Back the Bastard!
Prompting runs at [info]deeply_horrible from July 30th to August 5th!
Rules & Schedule | FAQ | Banners

The prompting post, with exact rules and a header, will be up as soon as circumstances permit, which means by tomorrow at 11 am EST at very latest.

Hope to see you there! ♥

bbb posters!

This past weekend was intensely busy, and I am more than behind on my correspondence and commenting. But for those of you interested in the upcoming Bring Back the Bastard challenge, I thought I would give you a taste of some of the very most exciting recent developments.

First, we have a number of INCREDIBLE posters by two of my best beloved artists, [livejournal.com profile] bvizen (Vizen on dA) and my dearest [livejournal.com profile] cabepfir (cabepfir on dA).

Second, we are nearly ready to launch. I am still tinkering with a few details, but expect to see us up at [community profile] deeply_horrible | [livejournal.com profile] deeply_horrible very soon. (We do also have an IJ comm, but I am becoming reluctant to use it for more than cross-posting now that they have ff.net-style advertising all over the place. If you have strong opinions on the matter, let me know.)

Third, we have a schedule for the challenge. I won't give any exact dates here, but do leave space in your calendars for a May sign-up, a late July deadline and a posting period in late August-early September.

poll -- bring back the bastard

"It's fun to write about Snape because he's a deeply horrible person." —J. K. Rowling

Some of you may have already seen the discussion post that prompted this poll. I am strongly considering issuing a bastard!Snape challenge, 'Bring Back the Bastard', from the soon-to-be-opened community [community profile] deeply_horrible/[livejournal.com profile] deeply_horrible/[info]deeply_horrible. Right now, I'm in the middle of a move, but I would love to hear your thoughts while I pack and unpack.

The challenge would be low-stress, prompt-based and anonymous, with sign-ups in early May 2012; posting would begin sometime that summer, depending on the results of the poll. Gen, slash, het and meta works featuring bastard!Snape would be welcome. People would join the community to leave prompts and discuss Snape's character in dedicated discussion posts. Challenge participants (18 or older) would anonymously choose prompts from the list or make up ones of their own, and their fic, meta, art or multimedia entries would be posted anonymously until reveals.

Interested? Questions and comments are welcome below. Feel free to link far and wide.
