Massive kudos to all the authors that offered up their fanfics, your short stories were an inspiration to all of us:)

What's next...
I definitely plan to run another art challenge this year, but it probably won't be until after the Summer. A few people suggested a Reverse Quicky event; but with this being an artist community and because the actual ReverseBang already is open for short fic authors, I don't see the added value for fandom.

However! I have been brainstorming about offering a space for orphan artworks that were made and published as stand alones or for other events, but that never had a fic attached to it. I was thinking of creating a reverse version of the MatchMaker Challenge, so with blind dates for authors. The artworks wouldn't be published in the community, but rather handed out as a mystery option to authors of short fics who can sign up with their prefered pairings or characters of choice.
I would love to know if artists would be interested in putting those type of artworks up for adoption. (I know I have a few artworks I'd love to see a story for:)

If you have any other ideas you want to share or suggestions for improvements, leave a comment below or mail me at beelikej@gmail.com

Until next time!

J.
