a flurry of prompts and stories
Feb. 15th, 2015 12:24 amIt's all ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
rthstewart 's fault, said autumnia (here), and indeed it is! meaning, the ever-evolving three-sentence ficathon, place of wonders and many, many bypaths. I'm not quite keeping up, but then I don't think anybody is keeping up totally. I'm about to head out for the day, but I'll try to get to properly reading through this evening.
I've posted fourteen fills, of which four are arguably Narnian, and two are distinctly Tolkien, and one is a crossover of the two, but I've also had great fun with older fictions of various sorts, and new fandoms that I don't really know, and in general have been feeling again the fun side of writing, and a sense of community at play. :) I'll post them on aO3 (and linkto this journal) when the weekend is done, and the reading/writing/posting slows down for the working week, before next weekend's probable new flurry of additions. :D
Meantime, thank you, Ruth, and everybody, for it all - not just the prompts and great ficlets, but also the way it leads to undiscovered books and tales, by way of prompts unknown - such as the book The Leaky Establishment, which I'd never heard of, and which sounds a must-read, and the Czech Cinderella version called Three Hazelnuts for Cinderella, which has set my mind off running after all the stories of women using nuts (mostly hazelnuts?) to solve dilemmas. (Does anybody have any of these? - I know of another Cinderella-ish one, and Kate Crackernuts, but I'm sure I've read more... ) and the opening up of new fandoms of things I've read or seen, but never, never thought of writing in! (Bertie Wooster! terrifying Greek myth! pictures!!)
and on a quieter note,![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
halfamoon has come to an end. I don't feel I ever quite connected with what was going on, but I managed to post a single story, and then at the last minute posted as well a list of those stories from NFE 2014 which were specifically female-centric.
