Pimpage: Last Author Standing Comms
Dec. 9th, 2010 03:19 pmI'm joining two new Last Author Standing Communities. I really enjoy writing for them. The point of a LAS is to write a new prompt based fic (100-1000 wds) once every two weeks. All the fic is then voted on. Each voter choses a "Best written" and "Least well written" fic, giving reasons to support their choices. The author of the fic(s) with the most "Best" votes earns an extra bye, the author of the fic(s) with the most "Least" votes is eliminated.
It's sounds like it could be harsh, but it's really not. I've not been flamed in the comments and I'd say a good 3/4 of the comments are constructive criticism (even if I don't agree with the comment). The other comments are things like "I feel the characters are OOC" or "The fic didn't engage me". Things that are valid comments and not trollish, but not really helpful to me as a writer, except to remind me that you can't please everyone.
If you think you'd be interested in them, check them out. More fic is always good!

Come on, join the fun!
