Round 3 Coming Soon!

[devinwolfi]

That's right, we're gearing up for Round 3 (2026-B) here at Be a Goldfish! This round starts 1 July and will run until 31 August.

We've made several updates to the RuleDoc (which used to be called the FAQ and then we realized it wasn't actually a FAQ at all) so definitely go give that a read if you're thinking about jumping in.

Among those updates, we've included a link to this round's prompts which have been expanded dramatically to include both prompts and mediums as well as links to several resources, some inspiration, and some fannish history. Now is a great time to check those out and start brainstorming!

We're also introducing a one-size-fits-all comment bingo to help guide, inspire, and encourage folks on their commenting journey. Our philosophy is that you don't have to be a creator to participate in a fanwork event. Commenters, as fans of fanwork are what make fandom go round, so if you're not feeling particularly creative right now, no worries, we would still love to see you around! Like the punch cards, we offer full color and black and white versions should you decide to take a more tactile approach. You can find previews of those cards and links to their folders in the RuleDoc.

We look forward to joining you all on this voyage of creativity, passion, and love for media, fandom, and the fans that make it all happen. We're gonna be sharing some more posts this month and later throughout the round, so don't think you've heard the last of us just yet.

If you have any ideas brewing already, feel free to share in the comments on this entry! Similarly, if you have any questions, comments, and/or concerns, leave a comment on this entry or on our Welcome Sticky.

Until next time!
