Friends, I have a question

[lea_hazel]

Does anyone have experience with using bingo cards to try and kickstart writing a long-form story? Has anyone tried to do this? Generate a card, somehow, for the prompts to help yourself get going, except each prompt corresponds to a section of a longer tale, instead of one whole complete story.

I am trying to move past the planning stages of a project, and freely admit that I'm starting to get desperate.

Once upon a time, this exact thing was the province of longfic_bingo, but the community has been inactive for a long time.

Well ...

The community is still visible, which means their instruction posts are too. The Longfic prompt list(s) could be added to the Bingo Card Generator.

Of course, this is also an option for anyone who wants to host a fest. I think it'd be a good choice for overlapping other fests, since not everyone writes longfic -- or you could let people use the individual prompts as they wish.

Oh, thank you! This should be very useful.
