The Old Guard Big Bang 2021

[lazaefair]

Hello, all! I come bearing news of a Big Bang rumbling on the horizon, and I figured the Dreamwidth folks would be into it. Writer and artist sign-ups are both open as of today!

What is The Old Guard Big Bang?

A Big Bang is a writing challenge where writers write longer pieces of fic, and artists create art for them. The Old Guard Big Bang is centred around stories about the characters from the 2020 movie The Old Guard, with a minimum word count requirement of 12,500 words, and which have been created specifically for the Big Bang. There is no maximum word count. Any pairing and/or genre are permitted!

What is the Big Bang schedule?

The timeline is three months from initial author sign-ups to final posting.

All deadlines end at midnight UTC-11 of the listed day. (UTC-11 is the time zone in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.) https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html
