slythindor100Welcome to the 13th Annual 25 Days of Draco and Harry Challenge - Traditional style for 2021!!!
25 days of Draco and Harry
The challenge is to write a drabble, ficlet, story, whatever for each of the pics. Your fic for each prompt must be a minimum of 100 words - but there is no maximum. They can be twenty-five one-shots or each one can be a part of a bigger story.
Yes, you may combine this with other holiday challenges. But to be part of 25 Days of Draco and Harry – Draco and Harry MUST be a couple.
You can post your fics anywhere, but please post the header below - with a link to where ever you post. I highly recommend you post to the AO3 collection set up for this challenge: 25 Days of Draco and Harry 2021
You can do this easily by posting the work to your AO3 account and where it says post to collections start typing 25 Days... a list will come up and you simply need to select: 25 Days of Draco and Harry 2021 (25_Days_of_Draco_and_Harry_2021).
When you post it's included in the collection. Easy!!
This will help me for the recap I'll put together. ♥ But you are NOT obligated to post to AO3.
A hint for those of you writing one, big story is to click "this work has multiple chapters" when you make your first post. That way you can add a chapter to it each day and people can find it easily. Also, if you're doing 25 not related fics – click "this work is part of a series" and then title your series something like sassy_cissa's 2021 25 Days of D/H series or something that will uniquely identify it on AO3.
NOTE: your fic does not have to be a story of the picture - you can use a part of the picture or whatever that picture says to you.
For those doing traditional style – the prompts must be used in order – as stated in the guidelines. This does not apply for early-bird participants. The challenge of this is to write and post within the 24-hour period between prompt postings. There's no penalty if you don't, but if you'd like to challenge yourself you can. Otherwise, you can post anytime for any prompt if you are posting for fun. You can also combine prompts if you're not able to write one day. The hope for this is for it to be fun and low-stress. And because your mods want more H/D loveliness during Christmas!! NOTE: your work doesn't have to be beta'd for this challenge.
If you are posting on LJ, it would be great if you could post your header (see below for the one to use for this challenge) onslythindor100. Feel free to link your story to where ever you prefer to post it.
Each day at midnight (EST) beginning on Dec 1st - the prompt for that day will become available by clicking the gift for that day. The following day, the prompt will stay - without having to click on it to see it.
NOTE: THIS CLOCK is the official clock. If you have any questions or concerns - feel free to contact the mods at potionsgod@gmail.com.
If posting on tumblr, please tag all entries: #25 days of drarry, #25 days 2021. Thanks
Here is the First prompt:
A lone owl is sitting on pure white snow. The shot shows a side profile with the owl's tail to the left of the shot. Its head is facing directly toward the camera, its orange eyes clearly visible. The owl has a beautiful plumage of mottled black and white feathers, a plain white face and dark beak. A small crown of mottled feathers are on its head. There is moderate snowfall in the background of the image, which appears to show a densely wooded area in mid to dark blue-grey tones.
