Ladies, gentlemen and ZOMGWTF!tentacles of TFF, the time has come to announce this year's IRON FIC competition will happen!

...


Not really newsworthy, is it? No, I didn't think so. Well then, I suppose I should mention that IF will be spreading out a bit. I'm going to be bringing the contest to <s>Toad Hall</s> Temple of the Toad Sage, and I'm very seriously considering Spacebattles. This of course means that there are going to be a lot more stories, which means that judges might have actual responsibilities this time around.

Anyway, the prompt suggestion box is now open, and the contest will begin on the 26th. Unless I get bored, then it might start earlier.

Classic rules will be in effect: 4 hours after prompt, any fandom, no original fiction.

26th eh? Sounds like I'm getting a bunch of new fiction to read for my birthday.

How about Ends for a prompt? All things come to an end, and they could be good or bad. Last reflections of a dying character, the end of an epic quest, transitioning from friends to lovers... the possibilities are endless.

Sorry, I've been reading up on Tarot Cards again, and Death has always been intriguing to me... Might cook up some more Tarot Based prompts if he whim strikes me.

I don't have any suggestion other than keep an eye on the time issue, since this contest seems to get a fair share of entries from Europe. But you knew that already.

Forgot about this... somehow...

I suppose this means I should set up Iron Man Fic for another year of failure... what is this, the thrid or fourth year?

Third for IMF, so hopefully that means it might actually work.

So, Iron Fic is tomorrow. Going to see about interest on SpaceBattles, would be fun to have a second venue, but if there's no interest, why bother? Going to tap a few writers, see if anyone actually remembered that there's just about 30 hours to the first Iron Fic of the season. Have the prompt all picked out; could be a good one.

Ladies and gentlemen, start your writing engines please...

So a few more hours to the next Iron Fic... assuming that Watashiwa hasn't forgotten.

Tis almost 1/2 past and no Watashiwa sighted yet... most disheartening for the prospects of IF2012.
