Want to talk about writing the legends into Merlin? Want to ask other writers how they handle original or side characters, or share some tips on setting? Writers of all types, welcome to the Writers' Round Table!

The post just opened. It will stay open permanently, and new threads will be added throughout the next week, so no worries if you can't be there until later. The legend-specific thread will start on Sunday, but you can dive into the whole discussion now or suggest threads you'd like to see later in the week.

Pimping two communities at once.

Need a break? Want to play without pressure? Wish a character from the legends got more attention in fandom? Join glass_icarus, hpsauce, sophinisba, and zephre for the most laid-back, low-key fest you've ever imagined!

No claims, no signups, no restrictions on pairing, medium, size, or rating. Just the zaniest prompts this fandom can think of... and YOU.

Prompting starts today.

Fanart workshop - January 30, 2010, 7pm GMT!

Do you wish you could draw fanart but don't know how to get started? Want to cross over from original art to fanart? Hope to branch out into new mediums and styles? Or simply have an interest in how fanart is produced?

Then the Fanart Workshop this Saturday is for you! Come ask your questions and get answers from several fanartists from drawmelot on everything from how to get started, to techniques and materials, to motivation. You can also discuss your ideas and stumbling blocks with other potential fanartists like yourself or ask the artists about specific works they've created (for the curious). Beginners welcome!

The workshop runs from Saturday, January 30 at 7pm GMT through Sunday. Your artist panel will be littlewolfstar, evebolt, xenakis_, and yue_ix.

Does your WIP folder scare you sometimes? New Year's resolutions getting you down? Need a kick in the pants and a lot of cheerleading?

The Fleet Finishathon is here to help! Signups run from now through January 17, followed by polls for the indecisive. (Can't choose a WIP? Let the masses decide!) There will be bi-weekly check-in posts for that all important cheerleading or pants-kicking, whichever you prefer. You can also set personal goals publicly, if that helps you get motivated to finish.

Sound fun? Come sign up!
