A 5 by 5 bingo grid. The top left features the AO3 logo then the title: 2026 AO3 writer bingo! by Tavylia_Sin See how many you can fill by 2027! The grid is in pink and pale lilac with a darker red for the centre square. The fills are as follows, going from left to right: Top Row Wrote whilst at home Used a beta reader Got a bot/scam comment Wrote 3k words in one day Got writer's block Second Row Dreamed or daydreamed about a WIP Wrote a new topic Made a cursed author's note Wrote for a new fandom Finished a longfic Middle row Felt joy from a kudos email Wrote for an old fandom Free space! Comment/Kudos on at least 12 works! Published with no beta reader Got invested in a new pairing Fourth Row Started a longfic Talked about fanfic with someone irl Wrote whilst away from home Gained a new kink or favourite character Replied to a genuine comment Bottom Line Finished an old WIP Researched some Lore Found a type after publishing Updated a longfic after a break Joined a fandom event The final text beneath the grid is as follows: Honour system! It's up to you to decide what counts for you, but here are some details~ Fandom Events can be prompt weeks, collabs, zines, exchanges, or anything involving the wider fandom. You can change the 3k in a day to any amount that feels like a large-but-achievable number for you! "New" counts as "new to you", and "old" is something you have left and come back to after some time has passed. Have fun and happy writing!
