There is going to be a second Kingdom Hearts big bang in winter, although I have not quite set up the details for that yet.

The server will be operational in August, so feel free to DM me about it :)

Since there seemed to be enthusiasm about this event last year, I made a discord server, so people who want to collaborate with each other will be able to, and to make the event feel a bit more like older fandom events. (cont.)

Hello everyone! So, this year I am setting things up a bit earlier to give everyone more time to prepare. (more below)
an image with information about the Heartless Halloween Party Event. It reads as following: Heartless Halloween Party, a Heartless Fandom Event. 

What is it?
A KH Bang event where we celebrate Heartless! Pick a heartless you find interesting or one you love and make something about them! It can be fanart or a fanfic of whatever size and type you want!

Submission rules:

There is going to be no rejection nor approval phase as the .pdf will just serve as a collection for archive purposes (plus assemblage).
Still, please avoid writing NSFW for the submission piece, as the event is going to be for general audiences.
So long as things are properly tagged, anything goes for the Bang!
On Ao3, please tag with Heartless Halloween Party, so I will be able to put things in a public collection.
Same on Tumblr and Bsky, so that things may be reblogged.

Submission email: chilltobember@gmail.com
Please send your submission along with the title of the piece as well as the name/username you would like to be credited with.

Submission Deadline: 28th of October. Bang Pieces Publication: 31st of October. Zine Collection: 15th-18th November. Delays may happen as I am chronically sick. Wanna collab with someone? We made a Discord Server! DM us for an invite to join!

This is not an art challenge, but more of a chance to do some art studies together and find motivation to work on our crafts before autumn and winter hit with the big art/writing challenges and events.
The prompts are thought for visual arts, but writing will also be more than welcomed.

3. Jack of all trades:
Do a subject from each category, skip as you like.

4. The diligent:
Follow the calendar instead

5. The busy:
Select the prompts and subjects you want to draw and make your own schedules - draw as often as you want!

PROMPTS PER LIST:
Different ways of doing the September Studies Challenge

1. The single minded way:
Choose a category from the list and as many subjects you want. You can revisit them.

Try to draw every single subject from the list.
