THE HOUSE BIG BANG CHALLENGE IS LIVE!

Friends, readers, participants, lend me your ears. The day you've all been waiting for has arrived.

The House Big Bang Challenge Archive

...is live!

The challenge began in September 2007, with more than sixty authors each vowing to write a minimum 20 000 word novella over the next five months. Over twenty artists signed up to create illustrations, manipulations, drawings, or vids for each story. The novellas in this archive are representative of the variety of ships and genres in the fandom, and range in subject from canon to crossovers to crack. There is certain to be a story for every taste, and we hope that you will reward the hardworking and talented authors and artists with your generous feedback.

A huge thank you to everyone: writers, artists, cheerleaders, betas, participants of all stripes, and of course, to all of you who have waited so patiently for this moment. We couldn't have done it without you.

For your reading and viewing pleasure, I present the thirteen stories and the thirty artworks of the House Big Bang Challenge!

Your mods (exhausted but elated),

It's okay, and it's a reasonable place to put in the split in, though I'm not sure that's what I would've done if I myself were to break the fic up into parts. Mostly I'd have liked to been consulted beforehand, but what's done is done.

Heh, I'm not surprised you got wires crossed, what with all the things you had to keep track of. :D It's not a big deal, so no worries.

Found another thing to correct (aren't you glad? XD): the line "The idea had been more plausible in his head than on paper." shouldn't be part of the different spacing as the quote that preceeds it.

Ahahaha, found another nitpick. ^_^;; In this section:
    "Is that you?" She asked, her voice thick from disuse and far too long a sleep.

    "Who am I?" House asked
You changed what I had House ask-- I had him say "Am I who?" and I'd rather it stay that way.

Maybe next year you can show the writers the coding beforehand, so that we can smooth out these details before the fic goes live? There are little changes throughout that might not mean much to anyone else, but some of those things I decided specifically as a writer and, again, I'd rather have been asked first.
