Rainbowfic Presents: A Midsummer Night's Dream

Up early because it's 110 out already where I live and I will be damned if I'm going out of the house.

Here's how to join the celebration...

1- Post a comment with the subject "Lantern- [Your Author Name]".

2- You will be given a prompt. You may specifically request "no n00dz" or "no dead d00dz" for prompts, if you like.

3- You have one hour to write and revise a story based on that prompt; posting/generating a header doesn't count for your time. Now, obviously you're not going to be at the computer all day, so you're on the honor system for having taken an hour or less.
> Midsummer Night's Dream prompts count as graffiti.
> You can use any other colors and supplies you can get your mits on. Glitter highly recommended. But, you can also post without a color if you desire. Hey, you only have an hour here. Do what you must!

4) When you have gotten your fic into the community, reply back to your prompt with a link to the fic. Specify if you would like another prompt. Repeat as desired.

5) You can mulligan on any given prompt, but you should wait twenty-four hours from when it was given to you. Just reply back to the prompt requesting a new one.
> Prompts do not expire unless you muligan or the event ends.

6) The person who uses the most prompts gets a prize. The prize is not more prompts. There will be a tie-breaker [based on total posted wordcount] in the event of multiple winners. The prize has no monetary value except to my Mum. because I have a bet with her over it. You can only eat it under certain circumstances. It also does not conflict with the Supreme Whumpmaster title awarded at the end of The Summer of Whump.

7) Please post questions with the comment subject "Mushroom".

ETA: The post limit per day has been raised to *7* if you are doing Midsummer Night's Dream.

ETA2: We have officially cleared the first page of prompts in less than twelve hours.

ETA3: 36 hours in = finished the second page of prompts. NICE GOING! KEEP IT UP.

ETA4: We are now on page four of prompts where the art starts to shift.

ETA5: And the lanterns are out! Stay tuned for the winners.
You may have been issued extra prompts based on your post count bracket. Enjoy them or sleep off the party as you like. But remember, you only have until 12:01AM August 13th.

Relaxing

Moving On

Are we still doing this? If so, I'd love to have another!

:| A fine job you do, too.

So I could just not get an hour until Monday, or I could drop everything I was doing and write a story that demanded to be told:

Lay another one on me, coach. :)

Turned out WAY sadder than expected.

Another? Or are we done?

Done! http://rainbowfic.dreamwidth.org/698495.html

It's technically the 10th, so if it's done then it's done, but if it's not, I'll try to get in another prompt before the deadline?

Disjointed Thoughts

(I think I may have ended up with at least three ideas in response to that image for some reason. This is the one that won out, though I may return to another if I can get comfortable with writing it.)

Another prompt for when I'm able to get to it?
