Fic Variations

It's that time of month again: sign ups!

Signs ups will end at 11:59PM PST Tuesday February 5th and fics will be due no later than 11:59PM PST Wednesday March 5th.


Round 6 is also an amnesty round meaning that any claims that you did not complete between October 2007 and November 2007 can be posted during February.

We will have three prompts for February: bite / release / ocean

As always members are more than welcome to use each prompt in their fics/drabbles or to use only one prompt.

As always signs up will last until November 5th and people can post their fics for round 4 up until 11:59PM PST on November 5th.


Our prompt for round 5 will be slightly different than normal. I will be providing four Shakespeare quotes that you can use to inspire your writing. You can use the quote to set the mood of your fic, a character can say it, and so on.
