Tomorrow's the day we can all start posting our fanfic/fanart/whatever! Go ahead and post your submission whenever it's the 12th wherever you are. *g*

Don't fret, though, if you're not quite finished. Fic may be posted over the entire Valentine’s Day weekend, Saturday, February 12 - Monday, February 14.

And if you still want to claim another prompt, you may do so here!

The prompts are in, now it’s time to get creative!

All types of fannish creations are welcome. You may choose to write/wallpaper/vid as many prompts as you like, and more than one person may choose each prompt. There is no length requirement, and you may claim your own prompt(s).

Please claim your prompt(s) in comments to this post. And so that you can find it again, this post will be tagged {challenge} v-day fest 2011.

Submissions will be due Valentine’s Day weekend, Saturday, February 12 - Monday, February 14, as a sort of Valentine’s Day gift for us all. *g*

I guess that’s it for the rules; on to the prompts.

Have fun! *g*

( Prompts )

There seems to be some interest in a third Valentine’s Day Fest here at shelter_diner, and individual prompts was the consensus, so hit us with your prompts! We’ll take general (word or phrase) or more specific (scenario) prompts. The only requirement is that your prompt must have something to do with Valentine’s Day or romance (or the lack thereof) in general.

---

Here are some examples of both general and specific prompts (you do not have to submit both, this is just to serve as an example):

candy hearts
flowers
love

The first time one of them says ‘I love you’.
Zach and Shaun argue about something stupid, then make up while baking cupcakes for Cody’s Valentine’s Day party.
Zach wonders if Shaun will think that flowers are too girly.

Get the idea? Now it’s your turn! Comment here with your prompts, and I’ll collect them all in one list for claiming. You can submit prompts for the next twelve (12) days, through next Saturday, January 15. I’ll post the complete list of prompts to the comm on Sunday, January 16. Fic/graphics/etc will be due Valentine’s Day weekend, Saturday, February 12 through Monday, February 14. That'll give you a full four (4) weeks to create your submission.

Please remember that you will be able to write fic, create graphics, etc, so keep that in mind, also, when you submit your prompts.

You will not be required to claim a prompt in order to submit a prompt, nor do you have to submit a prompt to claim a prompt, and you may claim your own prompt. Whew!

There is no limit on the number of prompts you may submit. However, if you come back at a later time to submit more prompts, please do so in a new comment to this post rather than in a reply to your previous comment. This makes it easier for me to make sure I don't miss any.

Okay, now you guys say something! *g*
