Subject: FKFicFest Starts Today (the LK Anniversary)
Today, May 18, 2010, is the fourteenth anniversary of the first
airing of "Last Knight" -- give or take local syndication. So it's
very appropriate that Chiller has an FK marathon today! (I wonder
whether they know?)
The anniversary is also why today is the first day of the FKFicFest
Ficathon event on LiveJournal:
http://community.livejournal.com/fkficfest/ . With a total of 22
stories by 20 authors, the ficathon will release two stories per day
(one per day when they are very large) starting today. The first two
are now available to read. Players have contributed stories short
and long, gen and ship, bright and dark, main characters and guest
stars, detectives and vampires, past and present... very FK!
The community is set to "14+" just as FK is rated "TV14." If you do
not have a LiveJournal account, you will be asked to tell LiveJournal
that you are over 14 to view the community, and then you will further
have to click on a little "this post may have adult content" link for
each story. I apologize for any inconvenience! Most posts are not
rated "adult," and all are clearly labeled with their own ratings,
but we wanted the community to welcome "adult" stories, too, and
that's what it takes. (If you are logged in to an LJ account, you
will skip all this.)
We hope that many players will bring their stories home to fkfic-l
after the ficathon event, but not all the players have ever been on
the email lists. If you watch the game, you may encounter new-to-you
FK authors, as well as old friends and favorites! If you choose, you
can leave feedback at the bottom of each story by clicking the "Leave
a comment" link.
For the past few years, I've made sure to post a new story of my own
to fkfic-l on each LK anniversary. I don't have that this year,
because I've put all my hobby time (and more time ~g~) into
co-hosting the ficathon game (and writing my story for it). I hope
that this post will do as an anniversary tribute, instead. I love
FK, and I love you guys. Thank you for still being here.
Best wishes,
Amy R., Knightie
