Write a fic on any challenge whenever you like =) We now accept submissions of any length if you don't have a webpage to call your own.

Anyone, not just authors already archived here, is allowed to submit fic for challenges. And once you do, you'll be a TNF author too! All you need to do is write a fic. Short, long, whatever makes your muse happy. First time writers more than welcome to participate. E-mail your completed fic, or a link to your fic on your site (either completed or a wip in that case,) to nurseryfiles@mulderscreek.com
