This 'thon is for both book and TV based fics.
What is a ficathon?
A ficathon is a fic exchange. Someone writes for you, and you write for someone else. Each person who signs up will submit two fic requests. You will then be assigned someone to write for. You'll pick one of their requests and write it. On the story due date, you post your story and receive the one written for you. Each person writes and receives one fic. Simple!
Rules
1. All stories should be at least 1000 words.
2. All stories should be based on The Dresden Files, either the TV show or the book series.
2a. When you post your fic, you must indicate which 'verse you've written for (TV or book).
3. All stories should be spell-checked and beta read before posting.
4. If you can't finish your story on time or at all, let me know ASAP.
5. All assignments and requests should be kept confidential. Like a secret santa, telling who you've got spoils the fun!
6. All stories must be posted to this community at the end of the ficathon.
6a. You'll need to be a member of the community to post. I'll also post information and reminders here, so I recommend putting it on your friends-list or checking it regularly.

Spoilers:
A few notes on the form. First, you must indicate which verse(s) you will write for. Assignments are given based on what you say you can write.
Backup writers will be emailed if another participant drops out, so that their assignment is covered. That way everyone who participates gets a fic, even if the person assigned to them drops out.
Requests: You must indicate which verse you want for each request: TV, book, or "either." Requests are what you want to see someone else write for you. They may be as specific or generic as you want -- anything goes, really. While this is the "Halloween" ficathon, don't feel obligated to stick to that theme!
Regarding spoilers: please indicate what books and/or episodes you're okay with being included. The whole TV series, books up to Summer Knight, anything and everything... whatever you're okay with.
Questions?
If you need to contact me, either to ask a question or to let me know you're not going to finish your story (on time or at all), email me at feathersflight[at]gmail[dot]com.
