Has anyone written meta about bingo challenges as a fannish activity, or do you plan to do so for this event? If so, feel free to crosspost your meta to this community.

I've been participating in

snowflake_challenge, where lots of folks want to see more activity on Dreamwidth. While researching community activities, I came across the idea of thematic meet and greet events. That seemed like something which might work here, given a membership of several hundred people and a new theme each month. So I made one for this month's theme. It gives people a place to meet folks with similar interests, and to squee about the current theme.

Here is the basic outline. Fill in as much or as little of it as you wish, depending on your interests as they relate to the Valentines Fest.

The New Year is a good time for a friending meme. Lots of folks dust off their blogs in January, and

snowflake_challenge is running (one of Dreamwidth's biggest events). You can answer here, and copy your response to your own blog to stir up more interest if you wish.

Hi everyone! Welcome to the Public Domain Day Bingo fest for 2024. On January 1st, a whole lot of creative works come into the public domain, including Steamboat Willie, The Circus, The Mystery of the Blue Train, and The House at Pooh Corner. In the United States, all works first published in 1928 are now available for adaption, performance, and copying. I tried my best to make it a diverse list, but I had a hard time finding comprehensive lists of all the works available, and I'm not overly familiar with most of the works. I did my best to find things that would make good prompts, but you are always free to make your own cards or peruse some of the links I've included for more works to add.

In other parts of the world, coming into the public domain are works by people who died in 1953, for countries with a copyright term of “life plus 70 years” (e.g. UK, Russia, most of EU and South America); and works by people who died in 1973, for countries with a term of “life plus 50 years” (e.g. New Zealand, and most of Africa and Asia).

This fest will run from January 1-31 and I'll provide 3x3 public cards, plus one 5x5 mixed card to get everyone started.

It's the end of the year and that means Amnesty! This is the time to clear out any cards from the past (as much as possible), whether that's from this year or earlier (although really, fests never end) Therefore, there are no public cards.

If you do want a new challenge, why not choose one of the past events? I have them all linked. Or you can use the Bingo card generator with one of the many themes there.

Don't forget you can add your works to the AO3 collection. And feel free to link to any other challenges or events going on!

The Story Sparks Fest will run from September 1st to 30th and is open to all fandoms and original work. All sizes and media welcome.

Story Sparks is a list of prompts to inspire ideas. I created the list as cards and have each one written on a card to shuffle and pull from. At the very bottom of this entry is the full list with some interpretations for each prompt.

For the purpose of this bingo, I've prepared a few public cards and a list formatted for the Bingo generator. But feel free to use it for your own purposes. I look forward to seeing what you come up with!

How can you use the Story Sparks prompts?
- As inspiration for the theme of your next story. Just get a prompt or couple of prompts for ideas.
- To recover from writer's block. Can't decide what goes next? Pull a couple of prompts and use them to get writing again.
- To create the skeleton of a plot. Deal between five and ten cards, or as many cards you need, to create the storyline from.
- As a writing exercise. Get a prompt and write a paragraph or short story with it as inspiration.
- As a way to decide between possibilites. Select appropriate cards and pull one from a hat.
- Any way you want!

The Fireworks Bingo Fest will run July 1-31. It focuses on fireworks, their composition, shows featuring them, and associated summer activities and motifs. While this fest is inspired by explosives for entertainment, many of these prompts also work well for more aggressive applications -- especially if you have a fandom like pirates, wild west, space marines, spyjinks, or cartoon physics where explosions appear often. ("Welcome to my world, lady!") Visit the Meet and Greet to squee about your love of fireworks. To diversify options, I've done several things...

This month I will be hosting the Kinky and Unusual Situations Bingo fest. Have you ever wanted to take a favorite character and see what they would do in a completely unfamiliar situation? Or explore an on-screen dynamic that you're sure would be kinky if it wasn't mainstream entertainment? Perhaps you already have some less than vanilla characters and you want to throw them into even stranger and kinkier situations. Then this is the fest for you! You can use any Fandom you want, or choose one of your original works. Don't have anything pre-existing? That's okay too, you can use something brand new. This is a chance to play around and really explore what makes a character tick. What do they do when they are completely out of their depth? Who do they turn to for help? Do they freeze or do they dive right in? The possibilities are endless!

These prompts will probably work best for written fills, but you are, as always, free to choose any creative medium to make a fill, whatever strikes your fancy. This fest will run from June 1 - 30, though you can claim a bingo after the fact as well. I have made some public cards below, and I have included the lists I used so that you can make your own card if you so choose.

We live with them, we work with them, we pamper them, we watch them, and we compare ourselves with them - Animals! This fest is about how people and animals interact. It'll run during the May. I've provided some public boards to get you started, on the themes of pets, working animals, types of animals, innuendo, and Get Wild. As always, feel free to remove prompts that don't interest you.

Welcome to the Gothic Bingo Fest, running April 1-30. It was inspired by the recent TV show Wednesday from The Addams Family canon, but works just as well for other Gothic canons, and should generalize to most "dark" material as well. You can write about other stuff, too, of course; some of the prompt categories are easier to riff than others. Drop by the Gothic Meet and Greet to share what you love about this genre.
