Dear Genex Writer 2017
Jul. 12th, 2017 10:02 pmThis is my first time trying Genex! I'm looking forward to it. :D I did a lot of describing the awesomeness about each friendship, and gave a few prompts in case you find them useful. I hope you have a lot of fun writing for me. :)
What I love about friendships is all the emotional depth: vulnerability, loyalty, knowing someone so well you know what they feel/think/need, even just having someone there as an emotional "rock". The whole "not being alone" feeling is such a powerful theme. I once made up a 101 favorite tropes list (in no particular order) and a lot of them are ship-oriented, so feel free to make use of those if any of them get your muse going: http://doranwen.livejournal.com/246063.html
Besides those tropes, here are my general likes:
deep platonic friendship, found families, apocalyptic fic, hurt/comfort, nonsexual physical touch (including cuddling), self-sacrifice, characters being vulnerable, character redemption, survival fic, positive treatment of religion, characters dealing with trauma, trust building, missing scenes, canon divergence AU (especially fix-it fic)
DNWs: sex or sexual feelings, supernatural/fantasy beings (elves, vampires, werewolves, gnomes, zombies, etc.), AUs other than canon divergence or alt beginnings, deathfic or horror, calling an adult "baby" or "darling", crackfic, gore (mild violence is OK, just not as graphic as a surgery documentary), uncensored profanity, first/second person fic
Don't worry if someone's written a similar idea before. My first real fandom was one where people used to write a dozen versions of the same TV ep, and I loved reading them all. There are never too many versions of the same story, in my opinion. I love to see how two people can take the same idea and come up with two totally different stories. :D
And now to the requests (in the order of which I found them in the tagset):
( The Lord of the Rings - J. R. R. Tolkien )
( Gold Diggers (1995) )
( Tomorrow When the War Began (2010) )
( X-Men (Movieverse) )
( Crossover Fandoms )
( Rizzoli & Isles )
( Sue Thomas: F.B.Eye )
( Women's Murder Club (TV) )
Happy writing! :D
