Hello all followers and fans!
From January 1st, 2018 to April 22nd, 2018, there is a contest running for Brothers Apart!
All art mediums are welcome, but the art must be based off of one of the stories within the Brothers Apart Multiverse.
Literature is accepted, so feel free to enter in any story entries you want. The stipulation is if it is a multi-part story, all parts must be up by April 15th.
There are some changes this year in both prizes and rules!
Rules:
- Must be based on the Brothers Apart multiverse. Canon brothers will not be accepted and neither will the stories I have written that are not related to the AU. (
An Ounce of Courage, Reversal of Fate, The Comeback Kid, Afraid, ect…) - You may create an entry based on one of the various AU’s (Brothers Lost, Brothers Consulted, ect…) or create your own AU, but it must in some way connect to the Brothers Apart multiverse.
- This contest is run alongside the same contest on my tumblr. You may enter into each contest, but must have two different entries.
- Everyone is welcome to enter except for nightmares06, since I will be running the contest.
That includes betas and cowriters. - You may include any OC’s from the stories in any artwork or writing or create your own OC’s to interact with them! It’s fun to do!
- For the tumblr contest, you may upload your entry to tumblr, fanfiction.net or archiveofourown.com.
- Please tag BrothersApart in any tumblr entries. If the entry doesn’t get reblogged to brothersapart, I might not have seen it! Let me know.
- For fanfiction.com or archive of our own entries, please send a message with the location of your entry to brothersapart.spn@gmail.com so it can be displayed on tumblr.
- For the deviantart contest, send a note to nightmares06 with the entry to ensure that it is added to the contest journal. Also provide a link to the contest journal in the information section for the entry. All deviantart entries must be submitted to the deviantart site.
- Each entry will be displayed on the Brothers Apart tumblr, and the deviantart entries will also be displayed in the deviantart journal.
- If you want to change your entry at any time for either contest, please message me through the BA email or a note on DA.
- There will be seven (7!) prizes! Three deviantart prizes, three tumblr prizes and one Grand Prize! If there are any changes to the number of prizes, it will be announced.
- Two of the prizes will be decided by a poll, picked by you the readers! I provide the prizes, you pick who gets them!
- If there are any questions, please ask through the tumblr, deviantart or email!

Prizes 2018:
As time goes on, the prizes change to match the contest.
This year, the (seven!) winners will all have a choice! They can choose to either read a special snippet of a future story (5-8 chapters of a story; meaning if a shorter one is chosen, you’ll get to read the entire story, if a larger one is picked, only a portion) OR you can choose to receive a copy of the paperbound Brothers Apart! The first seven stories, held in your hand! The stories that set off the entire multiverse series!
So, here’s the rundown of what you’ll win:
- 1 copy of Brothers Apart: Season 1 OR early access to a future story, to be determined at the end of the contest (choices will be offered depending on what has posted already, and what is written)
- 2 sneak peeks of future Brothers Apart multiverse stories, both angst and cutes.
The Grand Prize winner will also receive a special 2000 word short story, written by nightmares06 in the Brothers Apart universe from a prompt given by the winner!
The book can ship internationally, so feel free to enter if you are outside of the United States! Just remember that you will have to be comfortable with giving me your mailing address, there is no way around that.
Disclaimer: The winners are not to share the sneak peeks from the stories with anyone not previously approved by nightmares06 and if they do may be banned from BA at night’s discretion.

Winning story!
To all my readers: You are lovely, and I hope you have the nicest of weeks And the winning story is... Epidemic of the Mannequins! Brothers Lost had a secret weapon this time to win the poll, and his name is the Tiny Chase Lisong! No one can resist the call of a story where we will be having some very small shenanigans with the local spaz best friend! Chase Lisong never expected to be involved in such an exciting line of work. Ever since he discovered that borrowers exist and his best friend Jacob had two very small brothers bossing him around, it's all felt so new and thrilling. How can he say no when his best friend needs help on the next case? If anyone is interested, the story was inspired and named for the Stone Sour song, Epidemic of the Mannequins. I definitely recommend giving it a listen. So while you're outside looking in Describing what you see Remember what you're staring at is me I’m looking at you through the glass Don’t know how much time has passed Oh God
And the winner is...
A Day of Duality! Brothers Consulted pulls out the win, beating both Lost and Apart to become our next story posted! ~~~ After being cooped up in Baker Street for months while recovering, Sam Winchester finally gets the chance for a day out. Little do he and John Watson expect their walk to take a turn for the interesting when they spot something-- or someone-- hiding down an alley. Meanwhile Sherlock Holmes and Dean Winchester are left to their own devices, resulting in the least boring day on record for the Consulting Detective and his borrower friend. ~~~ We thought Brothers Apart would smash it out of the park, but instead here we are with Brothers Consulted winning with A Day of Duality! There will be no further sneak peeks for the story, but until posting begins on 8/24/22 next week, enjoy the cover art made for it by one of my favorite artists, @soluscheese, who also runs the @canonspngifs blog, something we use all the time for inspiration: They also did the cover
Contest winners!
Ah, what a year it's been! I certainly never intended it to take this long to announce the winners, but here we are. It's been an adventure already, and hopefully the second half of the year is much calmer. My fingers are crossed for it, anyway. As it so happens, there will be no poll this year! Neon pulled her entry out of consideration, which leaves us with three entrants and three prizes! I had an excellent time reading and reviewing them all, and so... The grand winner for the 2022 Brothers Apart contest is..... @Jetx43682! Their artwork perfectly captures Sam and Dean throwing a little celebration after the hunt! Just a casual moment between the brothers, caught for all of us to enjoy! bellalocawherehaveyoubeen and Misha_McCarthy will be getting the second place prizes. There are no words for how haunting the story On the Shorter Side comes across, with Dean trying to find his place in a giant world. And of course the artwork of Bowman shows his attitude about getting caught
Update at last!
So, I have been feeling much better, and am hoping to get back to a more regular schedule with stories soon! There will be a brief period of time upcoming in August where I will hopefully be going on vacation-- AGAIN-- and maybe this time I'll actually get there and not spend it in the hospital. My parents will be celebrating their 50th anniversary, so I'll be out of state to join them and the rest of the family. Now, for more blog-centric items: Story! Writing has been a little difficult for me recently, due to all these real life distractions, but @neonthebright and @borrowedtimeandspace have been wonderfully patient. We are still working on the stories, and I hope the pace will be picking up now that I'm in a better place. As for when posting resumes, I think I am going to shoot for mid August, after I return from vacation with my family. Brothers Apart and Brothers Lost will be in the poll coming up, and hopefully we'll also have some Consulted showing up with them! I also

I've never posted on here before, but I want to also post my entry on DA now too! Does that change anything for my entry? Like which contest it's a part of?
