Some of my colleagues at work are running a fundraiser for the International Rescue Committee this week, and I’d like to get in on that donation action, but while I am kicking in royalties from this month’s book sales I’d also like to do a little fundraising. Thus:
THE CAPTAIN AMERICA IRC FUNDRAISER.
From now until midnight tonight Central time I’ll be accepting donations via paypal here. Once you’ve donated ($1 or more is all that’s required!) paypal should forward you to my askbox where you can request a short fic (up to 100 words) on the theme of Captain America, with any other elements of the story up to you. (If I don’t get an unmanageable level of requests, I’ll extend the deadline to noon tomorrow.)
I’ll default to Steve Cap because I know him best, but if you specify I’m happy to write Sam Wilson as Cap, Bucky as Cap, anyone else you request as Cap, or any other story elements you like (within reason, 100 words is not that long). You guys know the fandoms I generally run around in if you want to ask for a crossover, but if you have questions feel free to ask.
When you send the prompt you should let me know something that will identify you as a donor, or when you donate let me know your tumblr handle at Paypal so I know it’s you. But you can send an ask anonymously as long as you give me something to identify you as a donor (donate a weird amount and mention it, give me your initials, etc). I can strip out any identifying information if you tell me to.
After the fundraiser is over I’ll transfer the money to the official office fundraiser, and from there it will go into a larger pool. Our plan is to pass that money to someone whose office has a “matching gift” program, so anything you give will be doubled by the time it reaches the IRC. WHAT A DEAL.
