I have made bingo down the B and O columns of my 4-1-23 card for the Gothic Bingo fest , plus 3 additional fills.

Note that two fills span multiple prompts. One is based on the prompt structure itself using one of the optional squares:
"Something About Her Scent" (Wednesday TV series)
Wednesday Addams
=Snap Twice=
Mummy

The other came from a specific cluster of prompts that someone requested:
"The Happiness of the Bee" (Polychrome Heroics)
The Moors
Ruins
Beekeeping/Bees
Adults are Useless/Dangerous

B1 (Wednesday Addams) -- "Something About Her Scent" (Wednesday TV series)
B2 (=Snap Twice= combine exactly two adjacent prompts) -- "Something About Her Scent" (Wednesday TV series)
B3 (Mummy) -- "Something About Her Scent" (Wednesday TV series)
B4 (Ruins) -- "The Happiness of the Bee" (Polychrome Heroics)
B5 (Workings of the Mind) -- "Sucked Backwards into an Eddy" (Arts and Crafts America)

O1 (Art Studio) -- "The Imagination to Improvise" (Polychrome Heroics: Shiv)
O2 (Bully / Abuser) -- "Mermaids and Sailors (Quixotic Ideas)
O3 (Beekeeping / Bees) -- "The Happiness of the Bee" (Polychrome Heroics)
O4 ("I don't need your help or your pity.") -- "Mrs. Opportunities, Ms. Nomers, and Miss Takes" (standalone)
O5 (Wild Bohemian Girl / Guy) -- "A Great Deal of Energy and Determination" (Polychrome Heroics: Marionettes and Finn Family)

"The Qui to Everything" (Quixotic Ideas)
Valentines Bingo Card 2-1-23:
Dumortierite - Mental & Psychic Abilities

Worth mentioning is that Quixotic Ideas is a new fantasy series set in an analog of modern Earth called Quorth, where magic is a relatively common part of life.

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 Gothic Bingo Fest.
