podfIDIC

Welcome to podfIDIC's third seed script!

This week's seed has but a single version; if you'd like the greater support of a seed with all the blanks completely filled in, check out Seed 1: Version 3. If you'd like a medium between the structure of Seed 1: Version 3 and the flexibility of the current seed, check out Seed 1: Version 2 and Seed 2: Version 2.

The seed is intended to be a starting point from which you can build, not limits to fence you in. You are free to change all of the blanks or none of them; to add, remove, or alter any of the words (even if they are not blanks); and to build from the seed in any direction. To see some of the possibilities, check out Seed 1 | Seed 1 AO3 Collection and Seed 2 | Seed 2 AO3 Collection.

Once you've created a fanwork based on the seed, we ask that you upload it to the podfIDIC: Seed 3 collection at AO3. The collection will remain unrevealed until Saturday, Jan. 24 at 6:00 pm EST. At that point it will be revealed and Seed 4 will be posted.

However, if you're still creating, that's awesome! The collection will remain open for new works until Jan. 31 at 12:00 pm EST, at which point it will be closed and the Master List of all fanworks created for podfIDIC will be posted.

Welcome to podfIDIC's second seed script!

Each week during the month of January we'll post a seed script in multiple iterations, structured differently so you can choose the starting place that works best for you. This week's seed has two versions; if you'd like the greater support of a seed with all the blanks completely filled in, check out Seed 1: Version 3.

You are free to use either of the versions or a combination thereof — they're a seed from which you can build, not limits to fence you in. You are free to change all of the blanks or none of them; to add, remove, or alter any of the words in any of the versions (even if they are not blanks); and to build from the seed in any direction. To see some of the possibilities, check out Seed 1 and the stories people created.

Version 1 has blanks left for you to fill in to tell the story.

Version 2 builds on this, giving several different possibilities of what you might choose (though you’re always welcome to choose none of the ones given and create your own!).

Once you've created a fanwork based on the seed, we ask that you upload it to the podfIDIC: Seed 2 collection at AO3. The collection will remain unrevealed until Saturday, Jan. 17 at 6:00 pm EST. At that point it will be revealed and Seed 3 will be posted.

However, if you're still creating, that's awesome! The collection will remain open for new works until Jan. 31 at 12:00 pm EST, at which point it will be closed and the Master List of all fanworks created for podfIDIC will be posted.

Welcome to podfIDIC's first seed script!

Each week during the month of January we'll post a seed script in three iterations, structured differently so you can choose the starting place that works best for you.

You are free to use any of the versions or a combination thereof — they're a seed from which you can build, not limits to fence you in. You are free to change all of the blanks or none of them; to add, remove, or alter any of the words in any of the versions (even if they are not blanks); and to build from the seed in any direction. For just a few examples of the possibilities, see six works from our example seed.

Version 1 has blanks left for you to fill in to tell the story.

Version 2 builds on this, giving several different possibilities of what you might choose (though you’re always welcome to choose none of the ones given and create your own!).

Version 3 offers the most support, with the blanks from Version 1 filled in (although you're still welcome to change the words). This is designed such that it can function as an open scene, and it might especially appeal to those who want to use primarily performance create their interpretation of the seed.

Once you've created a fanwork based on the seed, we ask that you upload it to the podfIDIC: Seed 1 collection at AO3. The collection will remain unrevealed until Saturday, Jan. 10 at 1200 pm EST. At that point it will be revealed and Seed 2 will be posted.

However, if you're still creating, that's awesome! The collection will remain open for new works until Jan. 31 at 1200 pm EST, at which point it will be closed and the Master List of all fanworks created for podfIDIC will be posted.
