Short Affair PROMPTS for March 7th

[jantojones.livejournal.com]

Here we are with the first Short Affair Prompts for March. Hopefully, spring is preparing to be sprung for those of us in the northern hemisphere. However, while winter maintains its hold, why not stay cosy and warm, and write a short story. The prompts and rules are where they always are, down there beneath the cut.

Today is also the day for posting your stories from last Monday’s prompts. You’ll find those right here.

Section VII is a Gen site, but stories which are Het, Long-term Romance or AU can be posted in the Map Room. You’ll find the link for it down the side there.


-Prompt Word #1 - Rust

-Prompt Word #2 – Jealous


-Prompt Colour – Crimson


-Due Date – 7th March 2016


Challenge Rules

-Your story should be built around ONE of the prompt words plus the colour. I.E.- Word #1/Colour or Word #2/Colour

-Word Count – must be between 300 and 1000.

-All stories should be headed with ‘Short Affair’ Challenge, the due date and your title.

-Please state at the top of your post which prompt combination you are using.

-Tags - please use short_affair, gen or gen-mature.

-Section VII is a Gen community, so stories should be appropriate, i.e. nothing explicit or overly-graphic. However, there is the Gen-Mature tag for anything containing violence, torture or mild Het. The Map Room should be used for Het stories, but again, nothing overly graphic.

-Also, as a courtesy to others, please use the LJ Cut, so as not to take up all the room on someone’s feed.
