Hot Summer Writes Bingo Fest

[nsfwords]

Welcome to Hot Summer Writes! This is my first time guest hosting a bingo, and I hope we all have fun!

I've got my banner template ready to rock for the end of the month, and will include a generic banner that creators can grab after the fest ends if they bingo in their own time.

Feel free to use the prompts in any way you want, and despite the tagline of Hot Summer Writes fills can be made of ANYTHING; fic, poetry, vid, podfics, recs, or handcrafts. Art, icons, and wallpapers. Fiber crafts, music, or animatics. And all the other mediums not listed are cool too. The only limit is your imagination.

I've made a few public cards at the bottom of the post, or feel free to make your own here. You can mix or match any of the prompts below or make your own - I'd love for people to add more items to my initial lists for this fest! I'm still working on a "Summer Songs" list if anyone is interested in that coming mid-fest?

I made a card right here.

[nsfwords]

Good Luck! I love your card and the all white icon of Malcolm.

[cornerofmadness]

thanks so much. God I'm going to miss Prodigal Son

[nsfwords]

I’m only 1/2 way through Season 2 - I didn’t know FOX canceled it!! *sadness* I keep telling myself I won’t watch FOX shows, they keep doing this to my favorites.

[cornerofmadness]

yep Fox sucks. Sorry if I ruined that for you. I've been part of the save prodigal son twitter campaign but at nearly 3 months now I have little hope left

[nsfwords]

Nope, you didn’t ruin anything - I’ll still finish Season 2. I’ll just be more careful again about starting new FOX shows.

[cornerofmadness]

I'm not even looking this fall at that station

[smallhobbit]

Thank you. I've taken all the prompts, tweaked one or two to be more Brit-friendly, and created a great 2x2 card here

[nsfwords]

Fantastic & Good Luck - I love the tweaks!

[smallhobbit]

Thank you :)

[alexcat]

Going with the 2x2 you posted - Temp and weather

[nsfwords]

I hope it treats you well! Good Luck :-)

Yay!

[ysabetwordsmith]

My card is here.

Re: Yay!

[nsfwords]

Woot - I caught your post during the Poetry Fishbowl! *Off to post a prompt that combines them!*

Let's give this a try

[fuzzyred]

I think I'm going to give the 3x3 Hotspots and Activities card you made. I may also pick up another one or make my own when I have more brain.

Re: Let's give this a try

[nsfwords]

Good luck! I liked that category a lot, so hopefully it works well for you!

Re: Let's give this a try

[fuzzyred]

Thanks! I'm hoping creativity and free time line up this month and I can make some fills.

Re: Let's give this a try

[nsfwords]

Crossing my fingers for you!

[siberian_skys]

I made a 3x3 card based on your People & Things of Summer List.

[nsfwords]

I look forward to seeing what your prompts & fills end up being!

[siberian_skys]

I've been working on the story for my bingo card for this challenge today. It's been fun. I wish I'd made a bigger card. :-) I suppose when I finish this story I can make another card with a different theme.

[nsfwords]

100%! Or combine the three lists and do a mixed card.

[siberian_skys]

I'm half way through my 3x3 card. :o I don't know how that happened.

[nsfwords]

Hot Summer Writer Indeed! You’re on fire! :-D

[siberian_skys]

Thank you. I'm hoping that continues to happen. I have a lot to do around the house not writing related. The house is a mess. I need to time manage better.

[siberian_skys]

I ended up making that bigger card you suggested. I mixed two of the lists. The summer lists are too fun to make a small card. I don't know what I was thinking.

[nsfwords]

Yay! \o/

[siberian_skys]

I'm taking a break today, but I'm getting back to the writing tomorrow, hopefully. Lots to do.

Hi.

[curiosity]

I made a card ...

Re: Hi.

[nsfwords]

Love the colors of your big 5x5 card! Good luck!

Re: Hi.

[curiosity]

Thank you! Good luck!

My Card

[nsfwords]

My card is here. Not likely to have much time to work on this in August proper, but looking forward to writing with it ASAP.
