Cap_IronMan Big Bang Fest - Are you interested?

What is a big bang fest?
-A Big Bang fest is two-part: There's fic and there's art. Writers submit fics, and artists/vid makers claim them to make art or video to go along with the fics. Want to get more of a feel? Check out the faq for the [livejournal.com profile] tardis_bigbang

I voted for 20k, but that seems like a lot.

Dude. This is hardcore. I should probably start writing now to have any hope of finishing XD I like a challenge though bwahahaha

On the one hand, a Big Bang might actually kick-start this bunny I have on the back burner. On the other hand, I'm not sure it'll make the 20,000 minimum--how many pages does that usually average?

I'm excited about this.

I can barely write 1,000 word long fics in a week. If that's like a cross country running thing for me, then those big bang people must be doing one of those Iron Man triathalon things (no pun intended).

Ooh, I would love to do this!

One question: would there be prompts for this? I seem to recall SGA having some sort of prompt deal with theirs, but I can't remember for sure. I think it would be awesome either way, though. :)

The scale of a fest scares me, but I'm also plenty excited to draw up stuff for it...

I responded to draw, but now I'm a little scared. Just how much art is needed for a 20,000 word fic? I don't want some poor writer to kill herself grinding out 20,000 words and then only be able to swing a few spot illustrations, and have her feel all dissed and hurt by the inequity of effort.

*trembles a leetle*

This is awesome. Can I writer do more than one story, though?

I think I'll be beta reading for two. Bwee.

just a thought...

bang; i have seen two-part big bangs run; the first part a shorter story, like 20k, and the second part a larger one (40-50k)this allowa writers of different styles to participate. and i think it's usually 6 months allowed for the longer stories, if not more. additionally, i've always likied the cheerleading and stuff that sometimes goes with a bang; fans who want to participate but don't write or do art or vids or beta can be assigned as cheerleaders. they basically encourage, comfort, scold and badger their writer into fiishing

just my unworthyh opinion. sign me up, i'm ready to go. oh, tw way, will there be a theme? please say no theme
