Harlequin Kradam

It's September 3rd already! Which means you have just a few more weeks to submit your fanfic or fanart for this round (and maybe claim another *g*).

The final date for claiming/posting is Thursday, September 30th. Yep, you read that right, we've extended the fest for an additional 2 weeks.

(Please note that there will not be an amnesty posting period for the fest, but if you're unable to finish your fic by the 30th, we'd like to invite you to keep working on it and post it for the next Harlequin Kradam Fest, which will open on December 15 for prompt submissions, and January 6th for claiming/posting.)

Ahhhh! I’m so excited! I can’t wait to read all the great fic that is going to come out of this fest, so let’s get to it! First of all, thanks so much to everyone who submitted such awesome prompts. And now, a *coff* quick review of the rules.

( Rules )


ETA: I forgot to mention that, for those of you who archive your fic at AO3, one of my wonderful co-mods set up a Harlequin Kradam collection, with a sub-collection for our first fest: hk_round01.

ETA2: Fanart includes (but is not necessarily limited to) the following: Animated Buttons, Banners/Headers, Book Covers, Colorbars, Fanmixes, Icons, Manips, Music Vids, Wallpapers.


~To claim a prompt, comment to the prompt post with the prompt number and tell us if you’re claiming it for fanfic, fanart or both.

Comment here with your prompts for our first Harlequin Kradam Fest.

We will accept prompts through July 5th.

All of the prompts will be collated into a list and posted here at harlequinkradam on July 6th for claiming. Prompts will be available for claiming (and you may post your fanfic or fanart submissions) from July 6th through Sept 14th.

You may submit general prompts or more specific scenarios. You may submit blurbs off the back of Harlequin romance novels, or scenarios you’ve made up yourself, or mix ‘em up.

For example:

General Prompt: marriage of convenience

Specific Scenario: Kris is the son of a wealthy businessman who must marry by his 25th birthday or lose the inheritance he plans to use to make the world a better place; he sees Adam perform one night and is smitten; Kris makes Adam an offer he can’t refuse.

The only requirements are that the prompt be Kris/Adam and be of a Harlequin nature (which we will interpret broadly).

For more information about the Fest please read the rules on the community profile. If your question isn’t answered there you may ask us here at the Q&A post.

Here are several prompts to get us started:

Adam Lambert has been invited to his ex’s wedding. Because he refuses to let the cheating bastard think he cares, Adam replies as plus one. The only problem is that he isn’t currently seeing anyone, and there’s no way he’s showing up without a date. Kris Allen appears to be the answer to Adam’s problem, except when the time comes for their fake relationship to end, will Adam be able to let him go?

~*~

Adam Lambert and Kris Allen had been in love once, but that was years ago. When they meet up again Kris is determined to maintain a distance between them; Adam is equally determined to win Kris back.

~*~

Unable to make it on his music alone, Kris Allen takes a job as a personal assistant to the flamboyant, charismatic and infuriating glamrocker Adam Lambert. Working for Adam becomes a challenge in more ways than one when Kris finds himself attracted to the other man.

~*~

Kris Allen agrees to participate in a charity bachelor auction because it’s for a good cause, but eyebrows are raised when the infamous Adam Lambert bids on him. When Adam wins the bidding, though, Kris is less concerned with his reputation and more with his virtue.

Now submit yours! *g*
