2022 Year of the Crack Fic: WRITING ✍️ CHALLENGE

Break out of your usual mold! Write something you think is silly! I challenge you, be wild! be free! (your plot bunnies will thank me!)

What wild idea could you smash into a fic? What unhinged headcanon would make a masterpiece? What would be ridiculous for *you* to write? We want a piece o’ this insanity! (Worried your fic would be ToO CrAcKeD ...?? you can always blame it on me!!! 😁)

CRACK FICS WANTED! Any Length, Any rating! Johnlock, Mystrade or Sherlock content all welcome!; post to AO3 collection ’2022_Crack_Fix’ by Dec 32nd, 2022 to qualify! Accepting WiP as long as it gets cracky before 2023! (Please properly tag your entries!) Fic does not require a pairing. ACD sherlock welcome!

Let’s fill some inboxes with SMILES and spread a little cheer! 🥳🎉(Can’t stop, won’t stop! ‘til the new year rings!)

WARNING! Crack fics are not for everyone. Use of Crack Fics may result in uncontrollable laughter, incoherent giggling, unresolved happiness, and the need for more absurdity! If you use Crack Fics more than thrice daily, your threshold for seeing possible humorous plot points in everyday fics may improve. Use crack fics at your own risk. Side effects may include: the overwhelming urge to write crack fics; an excessive use of hyperbole; an uncontrollable desire to read more crack fics; and in some rare cases, a desperate pleading for authors to post another chapter to their current crack fic! Stop reading crack fics if you feel your toes going numb (Seriously, we’re still not sure what is causing that one … ) 🤔⁉️

Read CrAcK Fics | Submit CrAcK FiCs | RuLeS? WhaT RuLeS?

(accidentally deleted the OP! haha, so here it is again!) 💋

@johnlocky @chinike @rhasima @whatnext2020 @janetm74 @ohlooktheresabee @fluffbyday-smutbynight spread the word!

[helloliriels]

Dear helloliriels,

I have a (long) question concerning your Crack Fic Contest/Collection.

I´ve written one but it is a sort of WIP as in I plan to add a new chapter now and then when I have a new idea but each chapter in itself is also a complete story.

Let me explain.

There is a frame narrative (short first chapter) explaining that/why John is allowed to read Sherlock´s diary in this moment. They are together now and “Sherlock´s Secret Laboratory Journal” (which is also the title of the fic) features Sherlock´s attempts to seduce John via applying Internet advice. Which of course will all fail in a spectacular and hilarious way. Each chapter will feature one piece of advice, comprising several pages in the diary narrated in Sherlock´s first person POV.

So, basically the reader will know that Sherlock will succeed in the end therefore the fic is not without an ending but the number of tries (chapters) leading to this point is open and will increase over time and my inspiration.

The first advice-chapter is finished and has about 5400 words.

Would this be OK to be added to your collection? It´s a strange hybrid between finished and WIP so I´m unsure if it will fit your criteria. It´s definitely crack. If you decline that would be totally OK, I´ll post the fic on AO3 anyway and had the idea before you set up your Crack Fic Year, so no offense would be taken at all.

Love, Samarra

Fantastic question!!! Thank you for asking!

Think I've only lightly touched on this, so I'll give the full rules of the contest

Any Johnlock, Mystrade, and Sherlock entries welcome!

Any length, any rating!

If it is written (or posted/shared first) in 2022 - and it is a crack fic - it is a valid entry! Even if you've already posted it this year untagged, you can stlll enter it now! Simply 'add to collection' on AO3: '2022_crack_fix' and it will send me a notif to review and accept!

If it is serious twist on crack, or has angst/whump etc in it - THE HAPPY PART (the funny/silly twist) MUST be posted by the end of the year to qualify! In other words ... if we don't get to the smiles by the end of the year - it will not qualify.

That being said ... If your whole fic is crack (smiles every chapter), as long as the WIP is started in 2022, it is fair game!

Please properly tag your fic (with any warnings, ratings, triggers, etc.)

The only thing I will reject from the collection is if it is mean or I see MCD that isn't a joke/twist. I will send you a message if there is an important tag missing before I accept it to the collection if there is a concern (again, we're talking any warnings or whump/angst to be fair to readers) you do not have to give away the funny twist.

Hope that helps!! Can't wait to see the entry!

2022 Year of the Crack Fic challenge is on!

NEW FIC ALERTS!!

New contributions this week to the crack fic challenge!

💌🍰🎈🍈🥟💘🎵✍

CPR by @mutedsilence (<500 words, Teen)

Sherlock sings CPR by CupcakKe when he's alone. What can he say, it's catchy!

💌🍰🎈🍈🥟💘🎵✍

It Happens For Good by hey_there_buddy (1.1k words, Teen)

"John, have you-"

John stared at Sherlock, his blue eyes boring into the detective's calculating one, waiting for Sherlock to finish the sentence. Which Sherlock never finished.

💌🍰🎈🍈🥟💘🎵✍

No Matter The Chase, It's You By My Side by Yuliares (2.4k, Gen)

“John!” shouts Sherlock, door slamming open loudly.

“Jesus Christ!” yells John, nearly spilling his hot mug of tea over his lap. He glares as Sherlock bursts into the room. “What is it now?”

“It’s Valentine's day,” hisses Sherlock.

Wanna join in the fun? Submit your fics to AO3 '2022_Crack_Fix'. Any length, any rating. Put as much or as little crack in, so long as it tickles your funny bone! We wanna see this insanity!
