1D Wordplay Fic Challenge - 2023 Edition

About the 1D Wordplay Fic Challenge

The Wordplay Fic Challenge is a challenge that runs for five weeks. Every week there is a single randomly generated word that acts as the prompt for that week's fics. Those who would like to participate in the challenge are asked only to do their best to write a fic based on that word in a week's time before then getting the prompt for the following week.

This is meant to be a low-stakes and fun challenge to get your creative juices flowing and help get those words out quickly by allowing you to create five shorter works instead of one larger project (as is done in similar challenges such as NaNoWriMo). It is also a fun way to see how everyone interprets the prompts differently giving us a group of incredibly diverse fics all written for the same prompt.

Details

As stated above, the 1D Wordplay Fic Challenge lasts for five weeks. The words used as the prompts are assigned via a random word generator and posted to the @wordplayfics blog weekly. Everyone choosing to participate that week will have one week to write a fic inspired by that word. This year, the prompts will be given on Wednesday mornings (Eastern Time) with the fics for that prompt posting the following Wednesday. Each Wednesday morning (August 23, August 30, September 6, September 13, and September 20), the new prompt will be assigned and that week’s fics will post a few of hours later. Authors can begin their work on the next week's fics as soon as the prompt is posted and they are ready to do so.

Those interested in participating are not required to take part in all five weeks. It is preferred that all who sign-up have the intent of participating in at least three weeks, but all five would be wonderful. Life happens and creativity doesn't always come about when you would like it to, which is fine. Just to say it once more, this challenge is meant to be fun and as relaxed as a challenge involving this kind of fast turn around can be.

Rules

All participants must be 18 or older. Please respect this rule.

There are no word count limits or other rules regarding content, though as this fest is a One Direction fandom fest, all fics must include a member of One Direction as a main character. 

The only requirements for the fics themselves are:

They are written within a week’s time and posted to the appropriate collection before that week's fics are revealed

The assigned word prompt is clearly used as inspiration for the fic  

Tentative Schedule (Dates are subject to change):

Sign-ups Open: July 26, 2023 Sign-ups Close: August 22, 2023 First Prompt Posted: August 23, 2023 First Round’s Fics Posted: August 30, 2023

Posting Details

Below is all of the information regarding the details for posting your fics to the collection(s) and what information I am asking you include in AO3 when you post. I will update this post every week as I get the new collection set up for each prompt, but there will also be a link to the collection in the bio of the blog where the prompts are listed for each week, so that will likely be the easiest way to find it. 

The Basics:

Add your fic to the appropriate collection (details below) by 2 pm EDT on the respective Wednesday

Please make a fic post for your fics and tag @wordplayfics  

There will be a masterpost updated weekly with links to the newly published collection

Each week's collections will be able to be found here: Week 1: TBA - prompt will post on 23 August, fics post 30 August Week 2: TBA Week 3: TBA Week 4: TBA Week 5: TBA

Please be sure your fic is in the collection before 2pm EDT each Wednesday. 

There will be a countdown linked in each post with that week’s prompt because timezones can be hard. If your fic is not already in the collection when I go to publish the fics, then they won’t be approved to be in the collection. You may still post your fic and link it to the challenge–I will even reblog your fic post to the challenge page–but the point of this challenge is to write a fic in a week’s time. I don’t want to give any one person more or less time than anyone else, thus the deadline of 2 pm and not allowing late fics into the collection. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know!

Also remember: you aren’t required to participate every week, but please do your best to participate in at least three of the five weeks this challenge is active.

Once fics are posted, it is recommended you make a fic post. Be sure to tag @wordplayfics in the fic post so it can be reblogged here. (I also recommend you link to your fic post at the end of your fic in AO3. If you don’t know how to do this, please reach out and I will be happy to help you.)

It would be preferred if the fic posts are scheduled to post within an hour of the fics going live so they don't have to be searched for every week and it also helps lower the possibility of fic posts falling between the cracks and getting missed. Tumblr does not always notify me when the blog has been tagged, though, so if your fic post has not been interacted with by this blog or my main @lululawrence by Wednesday evening, please send the post to me!

Questions? Concerns? Please let me know and I’ll get back with you as soon as I can.

If you’d like to see what resulted from the Wordplay Fic Challenge in previous years, you can find all the fics in the Wordplay collection on AO3 as well as a breakdown of the weekly prompts and the resulting fics in the Wordplay Masterpost.

1D Wankfest 2023

Liam Payne, Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson - ~2200 words, Explicit

It’s not easy, the life of a long-distance trucker, but Liam wouldn’t change it for the world. The money’s decent, he’s got his own rig (courtesy of a buddy who’d moved to New Zealand), he’s in charge of his own destiny, and he gets to listen to all the weird podcasts he wants to. He’s also gotten to see some truly amazing things. Sunsets over the mountains. Bison in Montana and moose in Maine. Bald eagles and double rainbows. Beautiful sights, at times even awe-inspiring, but they pale in comparison to the car driving next to him.

Read it HERE on AO3!!

This is for Lauren ( @kingsofeverything​ ) for being just a truly amazing person and wonderful, wonderful friend. Not to mention, such a gift to fandom. I haven’t been writing much (at all) lately so it was so exciting to actually bang out this lil guy! Not beta’d, SOOC, almost no research done about the life of a long distance trucker (well, I did some of course), etc etc. This fic does not reflect best driving practices so do not take any real life inspiration from it, please and thank you. xox

[iwantlarry]

Casting a spell on you that makes you happy, by the way. Your day tomorrow will be pretty good. Something nice will happen, maybe.

[iwantlarry]

A little 🌻 for all the fic writers.

On most days you are the only light. You bring the escape so many of us need in this crazy fucked-up world.

Your words matter. Always.

[iwantlarry]

Reblog if you’re over 20 and still read/write fan fiction.

I’m curious!

Sunday Snippet

😱 I have a snippet! It’s from my @wankersday fic which I really hope to finish asap. It’s called Ahead in the Count ⚾️

Things wouldn’t be so bad if Harry Styles wasn’t always drawing attention to his dick.

Louis’s been a catcher in the minor leagues for more than a decade, minus the two weeks he spent in the majors before being sent back down, and he’s never known a pitcher to touch his junk more often than he touches the baseball.

Styles, however, threw 117 pitches tonight, and adjusted himself 128 times. Louis counted. It’s not the sort of thing he typically keeps track of, and he’d started almost accidentally, as a sort of joke for himself, but then Styles threw strike after strike after strike that first inning, and Louis is a baseball player. And baseball players are superstitious.

“Feel like I’m on fire out there tonight,” Styles said with a shake of his head like he couldn’t believe his own pitches. Tossing a stray practice ball to Louis, and reaching down to cup his own balls at the same time, his expression turned serious. The ever-present line between Styles’ eyebrows deepened as he looked around the dugout and warned the team, “Nobody change anything! Keep everything the same.”

“You’re not supposed to mention it,” Louis said. Styles isn’t always a typical ball player, but superstitions run deep.

“I won't mention it again, just keep doing whatever you’ve been doing,” Styles said with a firm nod.

After that, Louis couldn’t stop. It’d be bad luck.

At the top of the next inning, Louis squatted down behind home plate, Harry adjusted his dick inside his uniform pants, and Louis upped the count.

Tagging literally anyone and everyone who sees this. Please @ me if you post a snippet.
