Remember back in elementary school we used to send secret cards to our crush and friends on Valentine's Day? Well, you can experience this on AFF because AFF brings you the AFF Cupid Mailing Service! This is a good opportunity to show your friends how much you appreciate them. Valentine's Day is not just for couples!


General Rules

• To participate, you must be a AFF member. If you're a reader, you can send a drabble to your favorite authors and your AFF friends! If you're a writer, you can send a drabble to your regular reviewers, your favorite authors and your AFF friends!



• Story must be a DRABBLE between 100 and 500 words!



• Theme: There's no theme. You can write whatever you want.



• It's a secret gift! Stay anonymous until February 14th. After February 14th, you can choose to either stay anonymous or ask AFF Cupid to reveal your identity.



• You can send as many secret gifts as you want to all your friends. EDIT: I think it wasn't clear enough but you can send secret gifts (drabbles) EVERY DAY to your AFF friends until February 14th. AFF Cupid will take care of the daily delivery (make sure you read the rules or else your delivery will be delayed...). In other words, you don't have to wait until February 14th to send the secret gifts.

Other Rules & Steps

1. Type up your drabble in MS Word.


2. Login to your email account. (It must be the same as the one in your AFF profile and yes I'll check. This is the only way I found to verify you're a AFF member.)


3. Send your story as email attachment to cupid@asianfanfiction.com Please don't send all your secret gifts in a single email. One secret gift = One email. This will make AFF Cupid's task easier.
   
   Please copy-paste the form below and specify the following in your email for EVERY secret gift you would like to send (otherwise AFF Cupid won't deliver your gift!)

   Your recipient's AFF penname:
   
   
   
   To: (it can be the recipient's AFF penname or real name)
   
   Title of drabble:
   
   Personal Message: (optional)
   
   
   
   Please answer this question. After February 14th, I would like to:
   
   a) stay anonymous for this secret gift.
   
   b) ask AFF Cupid to reveal my penname for this secret gift.

4. AFF Cupid will deliver your secret gift to the recipient as quickly as possible. You'll be notified when it's delivered. If you choose to reveal your identity after February 14th, AFF Cupid will send an email to the recipient to let him/her know your penname and the title of your drabble.

F.A.Q.


Q. What is a drabble?

A. A true drabble is an extremely short work of fiction exactly 100 words in length. However, when a story is referred to as a drabble, it often is a short scene or idea that does not tell an entire story, or a story at all (about 500 words). A drabble is a challenge to perfectly describe a thought with only necessary words. -Wikipedia


Q. Will you check if my drabble complies with the site rules?

A. No, no, your drabble is a gift. However, if you wish to submit your drabble to AFF after February 14th, yes, I'll be checking.

AFF would like to wish all AFF members and their family Happy Holidays! Let's party in our own way on chatango! I know it's a bit last minute but hopefully you can drop by and chat with your AFF friends. =) Click on the image below to see the invitation card.

AFF was mentioned in Sparkling Magazine! Sparkling is a K-Pop entertainment and lifestyle magazine published by Summit Media, the leading magazine publisher in the Philippines. A big thank you to Eunice Lucero and Sparkling Magazine! Also a big thank you to Jenny (riceberries) for letting me know and scanning the pages!

Please click on the thumbnails to see the full scans. AFF is mentioned in the second image.

Finally, a new layout for Asian Fanfiction! I hope you all like it. I had much fun coding it. ^^ I wanted to make the site look "cleaner" and easier to browse through.


Changes made:


- You'll see this button on every story (below the title and at the end of the story). Use it if you
wish to share a story with your friends (via email, facebook, twitter,
livejournal, etc.).


- A random story appears at the top right everytime a page is loaded or
refreshed. You can say it's like some sort of free advertising for every
writer on Asian Fanfiction. ;-)


- If you don't like the default color, you may change it. The
Change Site Skin button is in the site info box (right side). If you are a registered member, you can also set the default color in your preferences: Account Info > Edit Preferences > Skin

Have fun browsing around! =)

Asian Fanfiction wishes everyone a Happy New Year! May 2010 bring you and your loved ones peace, love, happiness, and good health!

Hi all! I have included an online dictionary! =D



Now on Asian Fanfiction when you double-click any word while reading a fanfic, you will get an instant definition from thefreedictionary.com!



I hope you enjoy this new feature. =)

Asian Fanfiction has a new affiliate:


FANtasia is a new web site maintained by Hanako. It offers story ideas, plots and also story titles for fanfiction writers.

Advertising your graphics/reviews web site in reviews is NOT allowed. You may advertise in the tagboard or you may also affiliate with Asian Fanfiction.

Reviews are there to give feedback, nothing more. Any review that advertises a web site will be deleted without prior warning. As a writer, it gets on my nerves when my reviews are spammed by advertisements.

After the third time, I will delete your account.

Thank you for understanding.

I have added an image that may help new members to submit a story to Asian Fanfiction.

Click on "Quick Helpful Links" above the navigation and select "How do I submit stories?". This will redirect you to the answer written in the F.A.Q.

If you still have any problems, please contact us. We will gladly assist you! =)

A new challenge has been issued by Zaire (thanks Zaire!). For those interested, go to Challenges or click here.

P.S. Anyone can issue their own challenges!
