Starting Date: Friday, March 14, 2014
Open to all forum members, even after it starts!

This month's prompt:
Lions and Lambs

Do you have a character who is lionlike and fierce? Do you have a character who is lamblike and gentle? Put them in a scene together and see what happens!

Instructions:
Simply post your blog's URL in this thread to join. I'll let you know in this thread when it's your turn. Once your turn comes up, you have two days to complete a blog post using the prompt. When you are finished, please add a link to your post on the thread.

If you signed up but find yourself unable to participate or need to be moved around in the schedule, please PM me or post in the thread. If you fail to post on your blog and on the thread within two days, I'll bump you down to the end of the line on the third day; you'll get a second chance at the end of the month.

Each post should be less than 1000 words if possible. Read and comment on other participants' posts if you possibly can--they'll be doing the same for you! Please include a list of all participants' blogs (not necessarily their actual posts for the month) in your blog post.

Well, looks like we don't have quite enough peeps for a viable chain. As such, I am going to delay the start until March 14.

I'd like to join, but I have a quick question. Looking back, it seems like many of the monthly prompts are able to be written as nonfiction, but this month's is strictly fiction. Is it okay if I use different blogs for different prompts? I have one for fiction and one for personal writing.

I don't see why not. The idea is to get you posting in your blog, after all, not to blindly adhere to the rules :)

Thanks! My fiction blog isn't properly set up yet, so I'm trying to get it organized before linking it. Just letting you know that I haven't forgotten about this and should have a link for you by tomorrow.

Take your time, airship wreck. I hope they find the black box!

Quick heads-up, I'm off to the west (of Ireland) today for St Patrick's weekend, and it looks like my net access will be more sporadic than I'd thought.

I'll be back on the 18th, not sure if the chain will have caught up to me by then, but I wanted to let you know that I may not be able to post before then. Apologies for any hassle caused, we just got everything finalized this morning.

Oh great! I didn't miss anything. We had a stomache bug race through the house this week. I hope to have something up by tomorrow night!

In the middle of it. Church day, it's only 10 here. I'll have it up before midnight.

Ok here. It's a start. I'll have to come back to this one sometime. I think it leaves room to grow.
