Word of the Day

[glennagirl.livejournal.com]

It's Wednesday already, and we have a word to help proclaim it ... haha.  Just write something using this new word of the day and post it in the comments.

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 6

Promulgate

[PROM-uhl-gate]Part of speech: verb

Origin: latin, early 16th century

• To proclaim or make an idea widely known
• To put into effect as a law or regulation

Examples of Promulgate in a sentence

• A side effect of social media is to quickly promulgate news and gossip.
• It may seem like nothing ever gets done in government, but the primary role of elected officials is to promulgate new laws.

About Promulgate

There’s power in selecting the perfect word. If you want to share a doctrine or philosophy, you would promulgate. Announce implies sharing for the first time. Declare and proclaim are both forceful, confident announcements. Languish just means you’re too feeble to do anything.

Did you Know?

While the official definition has nothing to do with livestock, the origin of promulgate has ties to the milking barn. The Latin verb mulgere means to extract, or literally “to milk.” Paired with the prefix pro, meaning forward, and you’re bringing something forward when you promulgate.

A Little Drabble Do Ya!

Forgot to post this on time, I guess turning the clocks back has really thrown me off.  I feel like going to bedt at 4:30. wow!

Your story is Due: Tuesday November 26th though you can post anytime between now and the end of the month!

Please try to post on the date, but it you’re late, that's okay. We'd rather read your story a little late than not at all! Just make sure to include the photo prompt(s) with your story!

Statistical stuff: Minimum 500 words, no maximum.

Subject Matter: Write a MFU story using the photo prompt(s). Your fic. can be specifically about the prompt, featured or just mentioned in your story. It's meant to inspire!

Posting here should fit into the GENeral concepts of the section7mfu community, contain nothing explicit and reflects the 1960's series in style and content, and featuring our brave men from U.N.C.L.E.

However, that being said, there is a GEN-mature tag option for stories that contain violence, torture, angst or very mild het. So if your story falls under one of these categories, please use the appropriate tag.

Section VII is a GEN community. However, your response can be in any genre be it, gen, het, romance, AU, slash, but please post your story in the appropriate site listed below.

Where to post:

Gen stories, gen-mature post in section7mfu,

Het, long term romance & AU post on our other site mfu_map_room.

All other genres post in uncle_du_jour

Subject Header: Please include in the Subject Header: your Title, the phrase:'For Picfic Tuesday' and the original due date.

Double Prompts:

Two prompts are offered, pick one or both. You can incorporate both into your story, or write two separate PicFic stories if you wish.

Again, please include the photo prompt(s) with your story! (very important!) It's easier for readers to relate to the story when they can see the image.

Here's your prompts: Black and white this month for a little noir, perhaps?

Prompt 1:
