Feb BINGO cards!

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

See the previous entry for the rules. Rewards will be participation or completion banners, as I am able to make them. I won't specify more than that right now, but know that you will get something this time around! ;-)

Also, in addition to the ones here under the cut, we will have the wonderful craterdweller available to personally make some special graphics cards (picture prompts) which can be used for graphic inspiration or written inspiration in the normal way. If you would like Crater to make you one of these, please comment here and specify whether you want 2x2, 3x3, or 4x4 picture prompts. Thanks, Crater!

Thank you also to the always amazing erinm_4600 who helped make the other cards available here. *hugs*

Anyone can use any of the available cards under the cut, and you don't have to tell us which one/s you will be attempting, but feel free to let us know in a comment, and hopefully we'll get a wide spread of the cards being used, not to mention a bunch of you taking part!

Also note that some of the 3x3 cards have a free space in the middle. Feel free to choose another prompt from any other card for this, or use one of your own. You can also swap out any one prompt you don't want to use on a card by exchanging it for one from another card, or using one of your own.

I'm going to give Drabble #4 a go ... Been a long time since I've tried writing drabbles

[thatwasjustadream (from livejournal.com)]

I'm hooked on the idea of drabbles - I think it's because so much of what I've done lately has gone longer than planned, lol. I want to write short things again!

[craterdweller.livejournal.com]

Mine too! (Writing gone long that is ...) A 300 word minimum fic exchange turned into a 5K word story - I don't want to lose the ability to write short things ...

YAAAAAAAS BINGOOOOOOOOOO! I don't know what I'm picking, but THERE WILL BE BINGO!

[thatwasjustadream (from livejournal.com)]

Yas! Bingo!!!!

[asphaltcowgrrl.livejournal.com]

We are way too predictable. :D

I have a scrap kit with a game theme - I know there are some bingo items in there. MUST MAKE ICONS. :D

[cmk418]

I'll take Games We Play # 6.

Can we do another if we finish?

[asphaltcowgrrl.livejournal.com]

Yes - you can!

[cmk418]

Done with the 3x3 Games We Play group. It's here - 900 words - OZ (HBO prison drama) based so there are a few naughty words here & there.

I picked up Drabble group #6. Question on that - if there's a free space, can you still sub out one of the other prompts?

[asphaltcowgrrl.livejournal.com]

Awesome, congrats! And yes - you can choose a prompt from another card for your free space.

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

And you can also sub out one other prompt in addition to the free square, if that's what you're asking.

[cmk418]

Completed Drabble #6 3x3 Bingo here - Blanket Hog fills in the Free Space & "I Want More" subs in for Getting a Pet.

These really helped fill in some of the domestic scenes in the second half of the novel.

Going with Genre Prompt #2 next - Challenging myself to write at least 500 words for each of the 4 fics. Preferably over 1K

[craterdweller.livejournal.com]

Great job! You are rocking Feb. bingo!!!

Like your personal challenge for the genre prompt card. You can do it!!!

[cmk418]

Thank you. I was driving away from the house earlier when I realized I hadn't linked to my results. Whoops.

[cmk418]

Probably a good idea to put the link in. LOL. Here be drabbles

[cmk418]

Managed to do a double on my 2x2 Genre Card but did almost 3K with both of those, so I'm counting it a solid win. Here are the fics:

For the Prompt "Fill-in Fic"- Compromises and Other Signs of a Mature Relationship OZ (Claire Howell/Tim McManus) - 759 words, Mature

For the Prompt "Coffee Shop" - The Emerald City Coffee Shop - OZ (Sean Murphy/Tim McManus) -2222 words, Teen - this will probably be the only coffee shop fic I ever write

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

Fantastic! You have done so well this bingo challenge! Well done! ;-)

[csichick-2.livejournal.com]

Adult Gymnastics #9. I'm feeling ambitious this month.

[asphaltcowgrrl.livejournal.com]

And hopefully flexible, too. (sorry!)

Good luck!

[simplyn2deep.livejournal.com]

I'm really going to have to think on this.

The drabble cards look really interesting and I can get some words done, but I really need to focus on actually writing my Hawaii Five-0 Big Bang story and I specifically wanted to do graphics for this bingo.

I'll see what I can come up with later today.

[asphaltcowgrrl.livejournal.com]

Good luck with the big bang! And you can request a graphics card, too.

[thatwasjustadream (from livejournal.com)]

Eeeee - so much potential fic. :). I'm gonna start with Adult Gymnastics #9, 'cause my Pr0n muse needs a kick in the butt. Hopefully will be back for more cards - I see a games card I like and I want to write drabbles.

[asphaltcowgrrl.livejournal.com]

Dumb question... what's a fill-in fic (in the genre category)?

And while I'm here, what's a behind the curtain fic (in the smut category)?

:D

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

No worries! No dumb questions here.

Fill-in fic, I believe, is where you feel like something is missing or untold in canon and you fill in what you think happened or something to explain why the characters are acting as they did.

Behind the curtain was one of my prompts, and to me it suggests something sexy happening in a place that's unseen and yet possibly discoverable by others, such as behind a curtain. Does that make sense?

[asphaltcowgrrl.livejournal.com]

Oooh... I see. I tried to Google it, and all I was getting was Mad Libs type stuff.

That's kind of what I thought it meant, so that's good. THANK YOU! :D

[naemi.livejournal.com]

Hell, I wanted to resist, but … Adult Gymnastics! Drabbles! Genres!

Can I swap out a prompt on a 2x2 card, too? If so, I think I'll try to tackle Adult Gymnastics 3.

[haldoor.livejournal.com]

YAY! BINGO!

Of course you can! We're all about getting the words, so if it helps you get more, go for it! ;-)

[naemi.livejournal.com]

Perfect, thanks =)
