I've been thinking about all the communities around for short stories, like MXficlets things like that. Last night I looked for a TS one and found nothing. I talked to [livejournal.com profile] castalie about it and she's helped to twist my arm about starting one for TS.

I know there's a lot of TS writers on LJ. I think this thing could work. I might be mad trying it,but hell, nothing ventured nothing gained.

So, any opinions? Right now I'm leaning towards an open 100-1000 words challenge every week. For slash or gen, even het if anyone writes TS het.

Anything that gets more TS stories has to be a good thing.

LOL.

Nope, that's a perfect opinion *g*

I'm thrashing out rules now with Castalie so it should be running soon.

I think my sister would be interested. She was asking me about TS Communities.

Great.

I'm just talking through rules etc with Castalie now so it looks like this thing will happen. I'll announce it when I have more news.

I'll be sure to let her know when you announce it.

What TS/HL? I never wrote anything TS/HL? *frowns* Oh no... you don't mean the horribly bad one... oh man, why do you have to remind me of youth errors - people, the fic is posted on ffnet... that's saying something! lol

Well, okay, I'll join to read - who knows, maybe the beginning of a new fandom for me? lol

Oooo! I'd join! :D Can't garantee a ficlet every week though, as I am already behind on some I need to write. But maybe it would get my muse going. ;)

If I may answer this one as well, sis? *g*

Hi there, Panda,

There's no obligation to write a drabble/ficlet *every* week, we know how we have to fight against our Muses sometimes. Just write when you can, if you can't follow a challenge one week, it's okay, and after all, maybe you'll write three ficlets for the new challenge the next week? *g*

Having limits and rules is nice, but it must not take the fun out of the thing, right? *g*

Hopefully your Muses will get inspired as well as ours *g*

I'll echo what Castalie said. There's no need to post every week, and I'd love you to be there Panda!

I think this is a great idea! Maybe it will kick-start my muse and help me to stop procrastinating.

Thank you!

It's great to have you, I can't wait to see what you write if your wayward muse comes back.
