October's not over yet and what a great round this is turning out to be! :D

This is just a quick drive-by mod post to let you know I'll be out of the country and probably away from the internet from this evening until sometime on November 4th.

I'll compile the preliminary master list for this round when I get back (and catch up on whatever wonderful fanworks and tagging I've missed), but, like last time, feel free to continue writing/drawing for the prompts and posting what you've created up until sign-ups begin for our ninth round (sometime in early 2012)!

In any case, continue having fun!
