    Prompts sent! I offered three ideas to pick and choose from. Can't wait to read it!

    I hope we see most or all of these in WbA eventually? Barring objections from the author or the idea-provider?

    Just FYI, if you're an author, you have to ask the contestant for prompts; they didn't receive a PM and won't know who they got.

    EDIT: Just wanted to tell you sluts that Calz is my author. Get jelly.

    Just got the prompt from the person that drew me as the author.

    Holy shit.

    This story is going to bust so many nuts.

    Without going into too much detail, we're looking at a post-Cold Days Dresen Files/HP crossover of enormous potential.

    Get wet, DLP.

    Two things:

    [1] Who finished their stories and offered them up for our reading pleasure? (And who failed miserably?)

    [2] Are we doing this again? Cuz :awesome

    I failed so damn miserably it's not even funny. I got maybe 300 words in and it collapsed.

    To whomever I had: I am so, so sorry I wasn't able to make Bob in Mister at Hogwarts come true. I really really am. Please don't hate me.

    I didn't finish, but I did start, and published the first chapter...I'm actually working on the second at the moment. It would be nice to update before Christmas. It can be an annual event!

    This reminds me. If swimdraconian ever checks this thread I'm still waiting for that story that I won the first year.
