Story Prompts & Sign Ups

Oct 22, 2018 20:09

Welcome to a new season of the Which Witch Ficathon!

I am very excited to once again bring you the ficathon featuring our favorite witch, Willow Rosenberg. This is my on-going attempt to try to get more Willow-centric stories written. So pick your favorite pairing and sign up to help spread the Willow love.

You can view the dates and rules here.

Below the cut you will find this year's prompts to choose from. There are four prompts per (television) season, four post-season prompts, plus four prompts for possible crossovers. If some prompts look familiar, it's because we kept ones that weren't written last time.

Look over the choices and then reply in the comments with your three favorite prompts - in preference order, including pairings (if applicable). Keep in mind that more than one person can use any prompt, as long as they're writing different pairings. Don't forget to include your name and contact info, since I'll be emailing/PMing the assignments.

I'll go through the requests, and then by November 5th I'll send out your assignments. Simple enough, right? If you have any questions, just ask!
