Host a Fest?

[ysabetwordsmith]

Nobody has signed up to host a fest in November.  Does anybody want to take this one?  It's not a lot of work, and it's a fun way to promote your favorite fandom(s) or other topic.

>> I just thought a mixture of different kind of prompts to give as much choice as possible. If you have another idea I am open. <<

Multi-list fests have been very popular, with short lists of prompts based on subthemes. Looking at your base theme, possibilities include:

* Firsts (first episode / issue / book)
-- meet-cute
-- meet-ugly
-- first kiss
-- first fight
-- foreshadowing

* Particulars (things unique to a fandom or at least rare)
-- daemons
-- dragons / fire lizards
-- asexuality
-- sedoretu
-- troll romance

>>I was also thinking maybe a Drabble Fest. I'm not sure we've done that either. That might be better considering how busy November is and random prompts would work for it. Any thoughts? <<

Locking the whole fest to one form could discourage people who aren't into that. But a sublist designed for small fills would be fantastic. I just recommended this community to someone busy who was looking for easy fanac.

I hadn't planned to stick to just the traditional 100 word drabble. I was thinking Drabble thru Quintuple and possibly poetry. I can't remember the style I was thinking There was a suggestion that I also add a Jump Start option for long works.

I'm confused a little about your list suggestions. It hink I'm just tired at the moment.

Jumping on a bit late but I'd love a drabble bingo. I might well be tempted to go for something longer than my usual 2x2 card!

It's going to be a Drabble Fest. :-)I should of thought of that first. November is so busy that was the clear answer from the beginning.

You know me. You know how I write prompt fills--keeping it under 2k is sometimes a challenge. So, I'd write a "drabble" as the opening page of a longer piece, and set them aside for later fleshing out as I have time.
