What is a Reverse Big Bang?

A Reverse Big Bang is a collaborative fandom event in which artists create a piece of visual art and writers and betas bid to work on a short fic based on the art piece. This event will be centered around Zuko and Katara and their relationship, and it is non-competitive, meaning anyone who wishes to can sign up and participate.

It a traditional Big Bang, writers work on the fic while the artist works on the art, but in this event the artists will work on their piece before the writers bid. By the end of the event, artists will have completed a piece of artwork, and writers will have written a fic that is at minimum 5000 words.
