Yay! *g* The week of July 2 work for you?

[admiralandrea.livejournal.com]

That sounds fine - have written it on a post-it to remind myself! I shall no doubt wax far too lyrical on my most favourite subject *g*

[spikedluv]

Wonderful! I've put you down for it. *g*

Brainstorming on possible themes ... Guns, The Garage, AU, Larry, Action, Angst, Drama, Romance, Episode Tags/Missing Scenes, Humor, Cross-overs, Charlie-whumping, Don-whumping, Don and Charlie as kids/other kidfic, Calsci.

Re: Theme Suggestions

[spikedluv]

Thanks for these suggestions! Crossovers is most definitely already there, as I have a soft spot for crossovers *g*, but I'll add the others to the list. Unusual approaches is an especially interesting idea!

We have already done a drabble challenge, and I was a bit disappointed at the lack of recs, since so many people are involved in writing drabbles. I have been thinking, however, partly due to some themes getting so few recs, and partly because people are going to continue to write fic, that at some point we might do a second round with some of the themes, a drabbles redux, for example, so you may see that theme come up again. *g*

Clearly I don't recall a drabble challenge. Must have been a week I wasn't reading LJ.

Too bad Mel and I didn't know. We could have pimped it on N100 - the idea audience.

Since drabble series are so popular now (I've lost count how many we have at N100 alone) you could fit in a drabble related theme without an exact duplicate. /shrugs/
