Tell Me a Story

azuriteSpam-posting today, sorry. Trying to force myself to study, and it's not that easy to do.
Give a gift; tell a story. -![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
vilify's got several prompts to choose from; all you have to do is comment (you can comment anonymously, and IP logging is off-- you don't even need to be a LiveJournal user to do this!). Write at least one paragraph of non-fiction text relating to the prompt. Share your story.
(This is kind of a meme, but kind of not. It's just something that encourages participation, so if you like memes, consider yourself tagged.)
guardian_kysra, I wonder if we could do something like this for a holiday fic exchange? Obviously, in our case, it would be fandom, not non-fiction, but we wouldn't specify anything but a word or a phrase, and let anyone pick/choose from them and respond to them. We could ask people who were going to participate to give us 3-5 prompts, so that everyone would stand a chance of getting at least one story for "their" prompt.
(Obviously, the problem with this concept is that without specifying a fandom, some prompts might inspire fics for a fandom that the prompt-creator has no part in. So maybe we could have a master list of "allowed" fandoms or something, fics that everyone might enjoy?)

Date: 2008-12-17 05:47 am (UTC)How about a masterlist of fandoms where it's one per letter of the alphabet? That way it can be a bit challenging but still have a good variety. You could pick your favorites/popular/obscure ones-- we could each do 13, or get other people in on the fandom selection and hope that their volunteering means participation.
I was also tempted to do ficlets for the 12 days of Christmas (not necessarily relating to the items in the song) or carols or something goofy like that.
