Callen’s Corner: Challenge #2

Callen lovers, NCIS:LA fanfic writers, and everyone else, rejoice! I am posting another Challenge!!! This one is a little harder than the last one, but I hope you’ll find a few hours or so to give it a go. The winner gets an incredible prize. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand, another, second, incredible prize will be awarded to one of the Reviewers/Cheerleaders of those writing.

NCIS: LOS ANGELES

THE CHALLENGE, FOR WRITERS: Write a short fic about Callen and Buddy the dog. Tell us about how they met, or how they interacted with each other, or what it was like when Callen had to give him up.

Here are the RULES for the writers:

  1. Yes, we know Tracy is around, but we want the story focused on Buddy and Callen. Sorry, but no romance. Mention Tracy, yes, fine, great. But NO making out, gushy mush, or necking. If we judge the fic to have too much “romantic stuff” in it, it will be disqualified from getting mentioned.
  2. Entries must be posted on Fanfiction.net with the words “NCISLAMagazine Challenge 2” in the description.
  3. No rated M entries allowed.
  4. All entries must be enabled to receive anonymous reviews.

 

THE CHALLENGE, FOR EVERYONE ELSE: For each of you who wish they could write, (or wish they had time to write,) we need you to be cheerleaders. And, guess what? Doing so will get you entered in a drawing for a second prize, set apart solely for those commenting! We need you to read the fic entries and comment on Fanfiction. We will post the links to the stories as they become available on the NCISLAMagazine Board (see link below.) If you go comment and cheer, we will enter you in the drawing. Good? Great!

Here are the RULES for everyone else:

  1. When you review/comment/cheer on the entries, please use a name that indicates who you are! You are able to review/comment/cheer as a “Guest”, but please type in some sort of name that helps us keep straight who is who. Thanks!

 

CHALLENGE ENTRIES AND QUALIFYING REVIEWS DUE BY THE END OF AUGUST 2013.

 

The Challenge entries will be posted here: http://www.ncislamagazine.com/board/index.php/topic,286.0.html

 

Good luck!

    It is such a challenge indeed. Great to think about how I’m gonna to deal with it while I’m on beach. Perhaps even better than studying Russian 😉

      Beware rabid plot bunnies popping up out of beach sand. They ruin vacations that don’t include writing time.

      (Hint, hint!)

      And you justdreaming? I hope that you will also participate, I love your stories, please do it.
      Just a desperate wish from some one who is not able to write but loves to read.

    I accept your challenge Keviana. I have started writing already, and have completed chapter 1 already. How short are you asking for us to write the fic? Thanks 🙂

    1. Keviana Elliot

      Squee! Someone who accepts my Challenge and dives in!!! Love it!!

      Length? Short is the minimum requirement. Let’s just say, there’s no maximum requirement.

      Write to your heart’s content!

      Me too! An idea literally popped into my head while making breakfast this morning 🙂 Looking forward to reading the stories.

    I have no ideas….but love the “no romance” rule with Callen and Tracey. Maybe Buddy finds love…?

    1. Keviana Elliot

      If ideas are all you’re missing, email me or message me on Twitter or FanFiction… I’ve got tons, and I’m not allowed to enter!

      Oh, and thanks for approving of the rules. I approve, too.

      1. I Feel Possessed

        If I have nothing after a few weeks I may have to ask for ideas. Hopefully the old creative juices will start flowing soon. Great excuse to watch NCIS Los Angeles DVDs…

  7. Keviana Elliot

    I Feel Possessed, it qualifies. (:
    I put it up on the Message Board. Thank you!!
