Ficathon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A ficathon is an organised fanfiction writing event. Such an event normally involves the writing of stories within a particular fandom. They will often all have a particular theme, such as being all about one character or pairing.
Most ficathons work by authors signing up with one or more ideas for a fic that they would like written for them. They also state which genres/characters etc they write and which they will not write. In return for somebody writing a story for them, they will be assigned an idea to write.
Ficathons normally have set timescales, with all stories due in on the same day where possible. Such events are often organised via websites such as livejournal or Yahoo! Groups.
