Passing the torch on to dante_s_hell!

[the-physicist.livejournal.com]

I wrote 1,500 words for a new fic and a further 1000 words planning out that fic. Now I know where I'm going with it (except I totally was attacked by plot bunnies twice already within just 1,500 words, so I guess we'll see how useful the outline ends up being ;) ).

Now I'm passing the challenge onto dante_s_hell! Hope you can reach your writing/art goal!

Whether it's someone coming or going is up to you, but I'd love to see a travel fic: a parting or a visit, connecting, reconnecting, or even the end of an affair... and for the graphically inclined, perhaps you could do something with a scene from one of your fandoms that fits in with the picture.

These are just a few ideas, but I hope this image will inspire at least a few of you to add to your target for the year! ;-)
