We have two (2) FK-eligible events this summer! FK won a place among the official fandoms of the new 
gen_ficathon, and of course FK is always eligible for oldschoolfic, by definition. Their timeframes overlap, but it's not impossible to participate in both. I'm planning to give it a whirl. I hope you will, too! (I would enjoy receiving FK prompts to write. ~g~) I have not yet signed up for either, but just because I need to plan and ponder my prompts. (What makes a high-quality prompt? Different things for different people, I'm sure.)
gen_ficathon is bright new. oldschoolfic, on the other hand, has held three events to date, and I've played them all ("A Delicate Balance" (FK), "Fearful Symmetry" (FK) and "So This is Home" (HL)) and found them quite satisfactory. With two events so close together, I'm going to have to aim at shorter stories (as 
much_madness is always telling me to). Pity: I will get a whole week off work for the first time in over a year just before the assignments go out. If only it were after! :-)
