TCWT April 2015 Blog Chain

Hey guys! For April’s blog chain, I want to do a twist on a topic from two years ago, which asked participants to write a letter to an antagonist of their choosing. And because fictional ships are the cause of so many FEELINGS in the book world, I think it could be fun to write a letter to one of them.

So:

“Write a letter to a fictional couple.”

(I am trying to sound professional here, but: I AM VERY EXCITED ABOUT THIS TOPIC.)

As usual, you have a lot of freedom with the topic. You could write a letter to a fictional couple you love, to a fiction couple you hate, to multiple fictional couples, or even to a character who desperately needs to see that he or she is passionately in love with [insert person here]. Anything you come up with (as long as it in some way relates to the topic) totally fits. Don’t be afraid to be creative!

To sign up, just comment below with a link to your blog and I’ll assign you a date. The schedule will go up on April 4th; the blog chain will begin on April 5th.

[If you’re new to the site and are wondering what the blog chain is, you can find out more here. You are also more than welcome to join in. We’re always looking for more participants!]

  7. *waves hand wildly* YES YES YES! This sounds like such a cool topic! http://www.adventuringthroughpages.wordpress.com I don’t care what day. 🙂

      April 3, 2015

      Woohoo! Uh… sorry to do this so late, but would you mind leading off the chain on the 5th? I understand that I’m giving you almost no warning though, so I completely understand if you’d prefer another day. Just let me know. 🙂 Thanks!

      *is excited by your excitement* I’ll put you down for the 24th!

    I think that was just a gif of Tom Hiddleston falling out of a chair… until the fangirls got their hands on it… (I’m scared of Tom Hiddleston, because he might take over the world and almost no one would even care. Only half joking about that.)
    Sounds great! I definitely want to try. (I don’t think anyone replied to my comment last time, hence the reason I was so late… :-S

    • erinkenobi2893
      March 27, 2015

      Early in the month, please.

      • John Hansen
        April 3, 2015

        I’ll put you down for the 10th! And ha, yeah, I can think of a very large number of people who would celebrate Tom Hiddleston world domination. 😉

      • erinkenobi2893
        April 4, 2015

        Okay! I’ll make sure to write it down, this time, so I won’t be late. 😉
        Yeah… 0_0 Some people are just crazy…

  10. coruscantbookshelf
    March 27, 2015

    Yes! Yesyesyesyesyesyes! I’m soooo glad you put this up; I was just burned to have missed the chain about putting a character into therapy… stop burbling, Rosalie, and just tell the guy you want to play already.
    So anyway.
    I’m at http://nasrielsfanfics.wordpress.com, I’ll take anything that’s still free, and I have just two questions:
    1: Do I have to write it as me?
    2: Does it have to be somebody else’s fictional couple? ‘Cause I’ve got this epic ship going with Nasriel and Kijé, and this prompt would go So. Screamingly. Well. with what I seriously think is the best short I wrote in all of last year.

    • John Hansen
      April 3, 2015

      I’m so happy you like it! (Also, you can always do the character therapy topic separate from the chain if you’d like. I’d love to read a post like that.) Putting you down for the 13th!

      1. Nope!
      2. Doesn’t have to be somebody else’s at all. That sounds fantastic–I vote go for it. 🙂 Can’t wait to see what you come up with!

  11. Ummm…Does friendship count? 😛 Probably not, but yea…It’s just that I don’t really like reading books with romance (which is just about every YA book, but in some cases it’s fine). If friendship doesn’t count, then I guess I’ll just enjoy reading everyone else’s letters. 🙂

    • ponymad2booklover
      March 29, 2015

      I second that. 🙂

      • John Hansen
        April 3, 2015

        Friendship could definitely work! In that case, would you be interested in participating? (And if so, is the 29th a good date?) No worries at all if not, though. 🙂

      • ponymad2booklover
        April 4, 2015

        Yes, I can do the 29th. 🙂

    • John Hansen
      April 3, 2015

      Friendship could totally count, as long as it’s, like, about why the characters are (or would make) great friends, I guess? So like the friend equivalent of shipping, basically. Would you still be interested? If so, would the 28th work?

    This is an awesome topic, and there are many things that I want to say to a few couples.

        So happy to hear it! I’ll put you down for the 19th. Can’t wait to see what you come up with!

    Hey! Super excited about this topic!!!!!! I wish I could take an earlier datte, but I can’t because of school. So, I can do any day between 10-18 of April. Thanks! Oh and get ready for the feels and I may write more than one!!!
    Sorry, I’m super excited.

    • John Hansen
      April 3, 2015

      Ahhh, that’d be fantastic! Glad you’re excited! 😀 And I’ll put you down for the 14th.

  14. Julia Byers
    March 28, 2015

    SO EXCITED FOR THIS. I’m in for any day but Wednesday (and it has to be before the 21st).

    • John Hansen
      April 3, 2015

      Sounds good! I’ll put you down for the 16th, a Thursday. 🙂

    FINE I’LL DO IT BUT ONLY BECAUSE THIS PROMPT IS SO ENTICING.

    I’m fine for any day, though. Sign me up. 🙂

    • John Hansen
      April 3, 2015

      I AM SO VERY HAPPY TO HEAR THIS. *dances in Jackpot winnings* And I’ll put you down for the 21st. 😛

  17. Miriam Joy
    March 28, 2015

    Can I have an early date, if possible? (I think I may have missed my post this month… I’ll put one up a bit late. Things have been a bit tricky.)

    • John Hansen
      April 3, 2015

      No worries at all! And sure, I’ll put you down for the 9th. 🙂

    March 28, 2015

    This sounds like an interesting challenge – can you reserve something for me that’s late in the month? (It will give me the time to think and brainstorm and … procrastinate. :D)

    • John Hansen
      April 3, 2015

      Haha, procrastinating time is *totally* necessary. I’ll put you down for the 26th. 🙂

      • Allison the Writer
        April 26, 2015

        I feel horrible because this totally slipped my mind…. 😦 Humblest apologies!

      • John Hansen
        April 26, 2015

        No worries at all! I totally understand. 🙂

  20. moppestein

    YES! SO IN!
    Could I have the 7th?

    • moppestein
      March 30, 2015

      Or, as I see someone has already taken that, any day works, really. somewhere near the beginning or middle of the month would be great 🙂

      • John Hansen
        April 3, 2015

        Awesome!! And I’ll put you down for the 15th, the most middle-ish day possible. 🙂

  21. Bridget
    March 30, 2015

    Can I join (assuming it’s still open)? Preferably something later in the month?

    • John Hansen
      April 3, 2015

      It’s totally still open! I’ll put you down for the 27th if that works. 🙂

  22. Pamela Nicole

    • John Hansen
      April 4, 2015

      Awesome! I’ll put you down for the 29th. Out of curiosity, do you have a Blogger/Wordpress/Tumblr blog that you’ll post on, or is it just the Facebook page?

      • Camila
        April 8, 2015

        It’s just the facebook page. Thanks a lot!

    April 1, 2015

    Aaahh! I’m so out of it lately. But I am interested, and will take any date. I will request that, if possible, I can get a date towards the early end or the middle of the month because I’ve got 3 AP exams and reviews are going to start towards the end of the month.

    • John Hansen
      April 3, 2015

      Totally commiserating with you re: the AP exams right now! And I’ll put you down for the 11th if that works. 🙂

      • John Hansen
        April 3, 2015

        Er, I meant 12th. I’ll put you down for the 12th. (Sorry – thinking faster than typing and all!)
