In response ChiefPam's suggestion, The Challenge is: Write a L & C badfic. Please try to keep it PG-13 and below. (Although the NC-17 ones are pretty........bad.)

Mary Sue-ism is welcome, as is bad spelling/grammar, poor pacing, and non-trueness-to-the-original-character. I'll post some good links about Badfic so that you can get the idea. (Or at least, have a good laugh! )


Disclaimer: I am not responible for the crappy stuff on the websites posted. Much of the material here is rated R, although there's a lot of good PG-rated examples. Read at your own risk!!

I have to say, I'd never heard of BadFic before. And after reading some of these stories, I was so amused that I tried one myself. It is really hard to write intentionally bad, but it is wicked fun!

So all of you great authors out there - give it a try! I would love to read the stuff you come up with ;->
