[jantojones.livejournal.com]

Can you believe it's 2020,and the show we all love turns 56 this year? In our own little way, our stories keep alive.

You'll find the prompts for January 13th down below the cut. For stories due today, simply follow this link.

https://section7mfu.livejournal.com/2710433.html

Don't forget, you can now chose to use one of the prompt words, or to use both in your story (not forgetting the colour element), remembering to state which combination of prompts you are using.

Remember, Section VII is a Gen site, but stories which are Het, Long-term Romance or AU can be posted in mfu_map_room.

You can post directly to Section VII or, if you wish, you can post your story elsewhere and provide a link. Please say where the link leads as a lot of people are unwilling to go to certain sites. Don't forget, Section VII and the Map Room are both available on Dreamwidth, for those of you who can figure it out (Just let us know if you posted there).

Have fun.
