wideawakeandwriting asked:

Just a quick question: since our stories do not have to be historically accurate and the time period is just a backdrop, does that mean we can throw in a bit of fantasy? Like instead of having it set in a real historical period, can it be an alternate version of history (if that makes sense)

The only real requirements we have for this challenge are that it’s a minimum of 1k/one art piece and that it’s set in a historical time period. Other than that, any other decisions are up to the participant’s discretion. 

If you’d like to include details that are specifically historically inaccurate - like having a progressive Victorian AU that doesn’t have a stigma against same sex relationships OR if you wanted to include fantasy elements like dragons in a Medieval AU - then go for it! We don’t want to stifle anyone’s creativity, and the mods are curious to see what fantasy elements you include.

Since the focus of the challenge is historical periods, as long as you’ve clearly set your story in some sort of “past” era, then other details for worldbuilding are up to you. 

Hope this answers your question!
