Monthly Writing Challenge

This is a monthly challenge of slightly longer form fics held in The Pen15 is Mightier FB Group. The requested fiction length is generally between 3000 and 10000 words. The fics are posted on a relevant fanfiction site (e.g. AO3, or FF) and then a link to the fic is posted as a comment in the Facebook thread.
The first two contests were monthly, but starting at the third challenge, the challenge was extended to span 3 months, and the maximum word count was extended to 15000.
A "best fic" award, The Golden Stiffie, is issued for fun and the winner's name is added to a plaque in The Trophy Room. Starting with the second challenge, additional category awards were voted on, with the "overall winner" going in the Trophy Room.
