Dragon Challenge!
Jun. 6th, 2009 09:33 amIt's D-Day, and I am delighted to announce that the Dragon/Dwarf/Dolphin/Diamond Challenge stories are now live, for your reading pleasure!
This year I have put the stories in two places: on my website, and on a DreamWidth community. If you're sending feedback via the website, all your emails will come to me and I will forward them appropriately. On DW, you can leave comments directly - if you don't have a DreamWidth account, don't worry, you can comment using OpenID, or you can just leave an Anonymous comment, and sign it with your LJ name. (Anyone who hasn't got a DW account and would like one, I have invite codes.)
Only half as many stories this year, but never mind, I know you will find something to enjoy. Here they are:
Galatea (with illustrations!)
http://crack-sparkle-pop.dreamwidth.org/1392.html
Grounded
http://crack-sparkle-pop.dreamwidth.org/1693.html
JC in the Sky with Diamonds
http://crack-sparkle-pop.dreamwidth.org/882.html
Lights All Faded
http://crack-sparkle-pop.dreamwidth.org/597.html
Snufflekisses
http://crack-sparkle-pop.dreamwidth.org/277.html
Tabula Rasa, Lacuna Caeruleus
http://crack-sparkle-pop.dreamwidth.org/1049.html
Us of Lesser Gods
http://crack-sparkle-pop.dreamwidth.org/1876.html
As usual, I'd like to encourage anyone who wants to review any or all of the stories to comment here with a link to your journal—a separate matter from feedback, of course!
A big thank-you to all the contributing authors. The challenge remains anonymous for a week, so see if you can guess who wrote what! I suspect it shouldn't be too hard to identify authorship; the original sign-up post is here, and as you'll see, we had some drop-outs.
