2010 Prompting is now OPEN!

Prompting
is now
OPEN!

Prompts can be something like 'Fairy lights' or a scenario like 'Harry and Draco want to go somewhere warm for Christmas'. If you need inspiration, check out last year's prompt lists:
2009 word prompt list
2009 scenario prompt list

Remember, it's any December Holiday, Christmas, New Year, Winter/Summer solstice etc. If you want to submit Christmas songs they are welcome too!
You don't have to be a writer or a participant in the fest to leave a prompt, it's not an exchange. You can leave as many prompts as you like, they don't have to be in individual comments, just make sure it's easy enough for me to read when it's time to compile the lists. :)

If you have any questions email mini_fest @ live.com or send a PM to brissygirl

Let the Prompting Begin!

"The times were full of certainties: we could be certain we were right — and we were — and that certainty made us certain that anything we did was right, too. I have seldom been sure I was right since." (A.J. Liebling) - for a character who was around during the First War

And the heart be still as bright

- So we'll go no more a-roving by Lord Byron *Please include the Marauders and/or Lily Evans
