Fair enough.
>> I thought about an A/B/O one because I never saw one that allowed original fiction.<<
That's a great idea. A/B/O is a popular trope, and some of its prompts generalize well to other contexts.
>> It doesn't look very complicated, <<
Hosting a fest is not complicated. The only obligatory thing is making the prompt list and posting it.
>>I guess I'm just apprehensive of nobody participating.<<
I think everyone feels like that. Will they like my prompts? Will anyone play?
Well, some of us play almost every month. Most of what I write is original, with a little fanfic sprinkled in. I think some other folks here also write original work. People can use prompts however they like, the themes just encourage variety.
You could always post and ask if anyone is interested in original work, besides the two of us.
>> Maybe I'll later in the year or in the next if nobody does or if I get the courage to. (Host one for original fic that is, not A/B/O).<<
Whatever topic you like is fine. This year, August and December are open, of which I'd recommend August because December is often quiet as people get busy with other stuff. However, September onward has only recurring fests. That means a new fest can also be added to that month. (July is doubled like that.)
