Hello all! Yes, some of you may know me from some of my Vampire Academy stories, and you're all probably wondering what the hell happened to me. Did I fall off the face of the planet? No, no I did not. I've just been a little out of it when it comes to my stories. I joined an rp, which also served as a HUGE addicting distraction.
For those of you who are new to me (which most of you would be since I've never written in the Mortal Instruments fandom), I'm Da Queen Dragomir, but really you should call me Lissa. :) I prefer it.
Anyways...
Starting December 13th, I'm going to be taking part in the "12 Days Of Shadowhunter Christmas" challenge, the 12 days beginning before Christmas and ending Christmas eve. It's just going to be a collection of One Shots with the following prompts:
The First Day (13th December): Patridge in a Pear Tree - Picnics and Parks.
The Second Day (14th December): Two Turtle Doves - Magnus and Alec.
The Third Day (15th December): Three French Hens - A Foreign Country/Language.
The Fourth Day (16th December): Four Colly Birds - Tessa and a character of your choosing.
The Fifth Day (17th December): Five Gold Rings - A Wedding.
The Sixth Day (18th December): Six Geese-a-Laying - Jace and Clary.
The Seventh Day (19th December): Seven Swans-a-Swimming - Water or the colour Blue.
The Eighth Day (20th December): Eight Maids-a-Milking - Isabelle and Simon.
The Ninth Day (21st December): Nine Ladies Dancing - A Ball/Animated Graphics.
The Tenth Day (22nd December): Ten Lords-a-Leaping - The Circle.
The Eleventh Day (23rd December): Eleven Pipers Piping - Sophie and Gideon or Maia and Jordan.
The Twelfth Day (24th December): Twelve Drummers Drumming - An Institute of your choice.
Note: I got these all off of the tumblr page: guidelines
Which is going to serve as my disclaimer. :)
I am also participating with this on tumblr, but I decided to share it on fanfiction as well.
And in regard to the tradition:
The Idea
Traditionally, the twelve days of Christmas begin on Christmas day, and follow for twelve days afterwards. However, for the sake of getting into the Christmas mood, this will run from the twelve days before Christmas. It will end on Christmas Eve, because Christmas Day is a day where many will not have access to a computer and will want to spend time with their family.
For twelve days leading up until Christmas day, twelve prompts will be released onto the blog. These prompts can come in a form of theme, situation, ship or even a simple item to be utilized. If you wish to participate, you may do so in making whatever you like in accordance to the prompt. It could be fanart, writing or graphics - it's really up to you! The whole idea is to get the fans more involved with the fandom, and showcase all the talented people we have in our online group.
