Short Affair PROMPTS - Jan 18th

[jantojones.livejournal.com]

I've decided to make a slight change to the way stories are posted for the Short Affair challenge. As it stands at the moment, I post prompts on a Monday for stories to be posted the following Monday.

From now on, I will still post prompts on a Monday, but you can now post stories at anytime from the moment the prompts go up until the end of the following Sunday.

I hope this meets with everyone's approval.

Anyhoo, for the moment, the prompts posted last week, for today, can be found following this link https://section7mfu.livejournal.com/2930284.html

Today's prompts, covering the next seven days, and the rules, can be found below the cut.

-Prompt Word 1 - Sleeve

-Prompt Word 2 – Penny

-Prompt Colour – Silver

-Last Day of Challenge – 24th January 2021

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.

Challenge Rules

-Your story can be built around one or both of the prompt words plus the colour. I.E.- Word 1/Colour, Word 2/Colour, or Word 1/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. Remember, Section VII is a Gen site, but stories which are Het, Long-term Romance or AU can be posted in mfu_map_room

Hi I love to read all of your stories but don't know how to submit one. This would be my first attempt and I don't have a clue as to format or how to get it to you. Could you please explain the process.

That's great to find a fan of the Short Affair, and MFU stories in general.
First of all, you need to join Live Journal, and then request Membership here on Section VII. When you do that just click on the POST TO COMMUNITY at the top of the page (on any community within Live Journal), copy and paste your story onto the template. If you have any difficulty with the process you can Private Message a member for help.
I hope this helps, and look forward to seeing you here as a member.
