It’s time for the Garrison Fest!
Prepare for some weeks full of amazing fanworks!
Here we are! Maybe you’ve already prepared your pens, pencils and other things you need, maybe you are gonna improvise … but this or that way, amazing that you’re here too!
What this fest is about: Every week there’ll be a prompt list with different types of prompts. Starting today (January 4), going on for 8 weeks! Share your amazing ideas and talk about what you came up with with others!
Topic prompt: one word prompt, a trope or something similar
Art prompt: a famous or not so famous painting that might help your imagination
Character prompt: characters some people might forget about, but they’re there and might help you to tell interesting stories
Ship prompt: a rare pair (romantic or platonic) that might deserve more fanworks, if you’re interested in a challenge
Peaky quote prompt: wise words
Lyrics prompt: sometimes songs can be very inspiring
Gif prompt: many aesthetically pleasing scenes from the show
every ship with more than 100 works for it on AO3: Tommy/Alfie and Tommy/Grace at the moment
Please tag your fics properly, especially if there are any topics that might require a warning. Decide on your own what is important aside from the archive warnings on AO3.
Look at the week’s prompt list and choose a prompt (or maybe more than one) you wanna create for!
Post it on AO3 and/or on Tumblr.
On AO3: You can add your fic to this collection if you want!
On Tumblr: You can use #garrisonfest2020 !
You don’t have to create something every week to have fun!
Some words of encouragement:
Feel free to try something new! Never wrote for a certain character or prompt? Maybe you’ve never created something for OCs or reader inserts and would like to try? This is your chance!
You have an idea for a story that might be a little bit longer and take you more than some weeks? See this fest as a chance to start creating what you wanna create! No need to rush, even a first step can be amazing!
Never tried writing something short, maybe a one shot or a poem? Never drew something for the fandom? Never created a playlist? There are many kinds of fanwork!
Wanna do something crazy and combine some prompts from the list for the week? Go for it!
Maybe you’re thinking about a collab? It can be so much fun to work together with someone else. You can write together or maybe one of you draws something and the other one writes, but you might also have a totally different idea!
Interested in the works other people create? Let them know if you enjoyed them with kudos, comments, likes and reblogs! Maybe you can even make new friends that way and come up with even more ideas together!
Wanna thank a mutual for being a lovely person in your life? You might consider gifting a work you create to them!
But now you’ve read enough things you need to know for this fest, didn’t ya? 3, 2, 1 … time to create things!
