Admin Post: "Behind the Scenes" Challenge Reminder!

[dawn_felagund]

It completely slipped my mind to post the reminder about the challenge that is due to close tomorrow for stamp claims! So no one is penalized by my absentmindedness, I'm extending the deadline to Sunday, November 12, meaning that fanworks must be posted on or before that date in order to receive a stamp. Late fanworks are always welcome but do not receive stamps.

Here is the challenge description:

The Silmarillion is full of pivotal moments, of events where the characters we love and loathe literally and figuratively shaped the world of Arda. This month's challenge asks you to take one of those moments, one of those big events or turning points in the story, to think about where and what happened … and then create a fanwork about what was happening at that moment in time, anywhere but at the site of the action.

"Behind the Scenes" asks you to write, draw, or create a fanwork that shows what a character who was not involved in the major event was doing at the time it was taking place. The character may be canon or original. For example, what was Fëanor doing on the day that Lúthien was born? What was going on with the Elves of Ossiriand as the Battle of Sudden Flame began? As Númenor sank beneath the waves, what did Elrond's day look like? The event may impact your character later on in time, but in the moment when your story takes place, your character(s) has no idea what is happening.

Full challenge guidelines are here.
