Box of Chocolates Flash Fest
Join us for a Valentine's Day flash ficlet and/or art fest! In order to keep this mini-fest manageable, we'll have a limited number of prompts and allow two claims per prompt. First come, first served, so claim quickly!
Feel free to do whatever you wish with the prompts! Fluff, smut, angst, dead dove, whatever your heart desires!
IMPORTANT: Before claiming a prompt, please note that we will also be limiting the word count to 1400 for brevity's sake!
Happy claiming!
(Open, Moderated, Unrevealed, Anonymous, Prompt Meme Challenge)
