In my humble opinion - this is the perfect follow up chapter to the amazing start that proseac  gave us.

To say I am excited about this story is a gross understatement.

Up next: ncischick09

Okay, let the fun begin....

Here's our writing order (determined randomly)

Proseac - gets to kick it off & give it a title
Merzibelle
Ncischick09
Dragonheart
Blumvale
SnoopMaryMar
Whiteink - gets to wrap it up

Let me know if you have any questions. 

Quick Reference
your piece should be between 500 - 1000 words long (though I don't think anyone will complain if you go over a bit)
PG-13 rating (or below)
post in your journal - linking previous entries for story continuity
I don't think anyone has a friends only journal - if you do please let me know and I will rehost your story in my journal or make your entry public so anyone linking back can access it.
(I will also link all entries in my journal )
you have 2 weeks to post your piece once you've been tagged.

So,,,, Liz - tag - you're it!

Well, hiatus is here and we need something to flame the fandom flames, so is anyone interested in doing a tag fic?

Don't know what that is? 

A tag fic is a fic started by one person and then added to by different people in a pre-assigned order.  Once everyone has completed their portion we end up with a fic written by several writers.

We need at least 5 writers willing to write between 500 -1000 words for their portion of the story.

Writing position is determined randomly.

The first writer gets the honor of setting up the story - the rest carry it through - and the last gets to wrap it all up.

I don't think we need to set up writing ground rules as no one on my flist or in my circle will bash main characters (whomping them is okay) and we will keep it on PG-13 level unless all agree to a higher rating if someone wanted to write a "smut" chapter.

The first person will post their portion of the story in their journal and then "tag" person #2.

Person #2 will post in their journal and then tag person #3.

and so on and so on until all have posted.

All writers will post links to the previous portions in their journals.

The challenge: to create an interesting story with multiple writers.  We all have different styles, but the story needs to flow in both plot and characterization - we don't want it to read like 5 different stories, and it's a challenge to work off what someone else has handed to you.

To keep the momentum going - you must be able to complete your portion within two weeks of being tagged (hopefully sooner, but I know life gets in the way of fandom).

okay, I know that was kinda loosey goosey - but we can tighten it up if needed.

So whose in? 

We need atleast 5...

ETA: We have our 5, so this a go.  I will leave the prompt open over the weekend just in case anyone else wants to join in.  On Sunday night I will put our names in the randomizer and assign writing order.  This is going to a blast!
