Merlin's M/A & B/C Glomp fest Prompting is open!



For those of you unfamiliar with the concept, glomp fest is a way to celebrate those of you in fandom that do not get enough thanks. Writers and artists are blessed with a lot of feedback in this fandom, in exchange fests we are given the opportunity to receive gifts from other writers and artists that was made just for us.

But the readers, commenters, reccers and lurkers in this fandom make our world go round. This is a way to give back to you, in a way that we usually don't get the opportunity to.

So if your primary contribution to Merlin fandom is not as an author or artist and you'd like to receive something special about Merlin/Arthur or Bradley/Colin, just for you - sign up! don't be shy!

A few months ago, we did this in HP fandom and it was a HUGE success.

I love the idea of this. I just wish it was getting more people. I don't know how widely it was promoted or how well it was explained (or where all the A/M, B/C fans have gone because it seems they have melted into the shadow realm in the past month)

The idea is fabulous. Though I do think the dynamic of Merlin fandom is very different than HP fandom. Readers and commenters can get their prompts written on KMM and a lot of prompt driven mini fests, where as HP is a lot of exchange fest which isolates the writers/artists from the readers.

I have no idea what's happened to all the A/M, B/C fans. :/ COME BACK!!!
