The writing period has begun for Rational Fiction Fest! During this 2-month period, you can claim any of the prompts, write a work, and submit it to the fest. No new prompts can be added from here on out.

Claiming a prompt and submitting a work

You can claim any prompt from the fest's selection of prompts, including prompts that have one or more claims - multiple people can write based on the same prompt. You can drop a claim if you decide you don't want to write for that prompt. Read more here.

You can fulfill a claim by going to your claims and clicking the "Fulfill" button. Read more about the process here.

Writing period duration

The writing period lasts for 2 months and ends on September 30th. All deadlines are 3 pm Pacific Time (10 pm UTC).


Fic and author reveals

All fics submitted will be "face down" and blank until Oct 02, when fics are revealed. During the first week, authors are anonymous. Then on Oct 09, authors will be revealed.

Here's an example of what submitted fics will look like prior to Oct 02 (link)

Here's an example of what submitted fics will look like from Oct 02-09 (link)

Then on Oct 09, author reveals will happen and the fics will look like normal fics.


Q&A


I didn't submit a prompt, can I still claim a prompt and write a fic for this fest?

Yes! Please do.


I don't have an AO3 account, can I still participate?

Yes. If you don't have one, please come by the r/rational discord's #ratfic-fest channel and I will get you set up with an AO3 account.


What happens if I can't submit a fic? Or what if I finish early and want to pick up another claim?

If you can't submit a fic you wanted to, you can drop the prompt at any time. If you find you have extra time, stop by the prompts list and claim another prompt.

If you have further questions, feel free to ask them here or come by the r/rational discord's #ratfic-fest channel to ask them.
