The call for prompts is now CLOSED!
The Summary of stories is here on DW and here on LJ.
I am now taking prompts on the theme of Gifts, gifts, and the gifted
I will write (over the next week) at least one microfic (150-300 words) to each prompter. If you donate, I will write to all of your prompts,
If you have donated, I will write to every prompt you left.
In addition, for each $5 you donate, I will write an additional 500 words to the prompt(s) of your choice.
For every linkback I receive, I will post another 50 words on a story (See the poll for setting here on DW and here on LJ
If I get two new commenters or one new donator, I will write a setting piece (setting chosen by poll).
And, of course, donations are always well-received:
If I reach $35 in donations, I will post an additional 1000-2000-word fic on the subject of the audience’s choice.
If I reach $65, I will write at least 2 microfics for everyone, whether or not they donated.
If I reach $95, I will write to every prompt I get in the next 24 hours (limit 4 per person) – or third prompt for each original prompter. At this point, please allow up to 5 weeks for the writing to be completed.
If I reach $120, I will record a podcast of an audience-choice story and post it for everyone to read. Also, everyone who tipped will get double wordcount.
If I reach $150, I will release an e-book of all of the fiction written to this call and the last one. At this point, please allow up to 6 weeks for the writing to be completed.
I’m still saving up for the giraffe carpet, which will be installed THIS COMING WEDNESDAY (knock on wood!)

The/an unexpected gift. The/an unexpected Gift. The/an unexpectedly Gifted. The leftover Gift.
I have written yto your second prompt here – http://aldersprig.dreamwidth.org/206595.html
And I’ve written to your third prompt, too! Here – http://aldersprig.dreamwidth.org/223919.html
Got poked in this direction by ankewehner Small gifts in large packages Psychic powers wrapped up with ribbons Something fantastic longing for the mundane
I have answered your third prompt here – http://aldersprig.livejournal.com/346419.html. Because you have donated, you may ask for 500 more words on any story from this or any Giraffe call, and, also, I will write stories to all three of your prompts. Thank you very much!!
I have written to your first prompt here – http://aldersprig.dreamwidth.org/206884.html
I have answered your third prompt here – http://aldersprig.livejournal.com/366694.html
I wanted to see more about that accountant prisoner on the airship! Maybe there can be some gifting involved there. Maybe being taken prisoner ended up being a gift, given that no one cared enough to pay her ransom. 🙂
Hee! 🙂 I have answered your prompt here – http://aldersprig.livejournal.com/346716.html
And again here – http://aldersprig.dreamwidth.org/215880.html – hope you enjoy!

Somebody who doesn’t have powers of their own, but gives a power to others.
A few other thoughts: a gift fashioned from words. A child that is a gift, a -gift- and gifted. A gift that nobody wants, but somebody must take.
I combined your second and third prompts here – http://aldersprig.livejournal.com/359427.html err, by which I meant the first and second in this post.
I have written to this prompt here – http://aldersprig.livejournal.com/347903.html
The third king’s gift (myrrh).
Regifting. “In Swedish, ‘gift’ means ‘poison.'”
“In Swedish, ‘gift’ means ‘poison.'” And also ‘wife’ or ‘married.’ 😛
Punnage time…Yeah, I had only looked up what the Swedish for “poison” was for a supervillain name.
And here’s your poison gift wife: http://aldersprig.livejournal.com/360324.html
I have answered your prompt here – http://aldersprig.livejournal.com/348204.html
An ill-considered gift. A seemingly useless gift that proves practical. A faerie gift. A gift given in bad faith.
I have written to your prompt here – http://aldersprig.dreamwidth.org/205429.html 🙂
I have written to, more or less, your second and third prompts here – http://aldersprig.livejournal.com/361647.html
What do you get the person who has everything? Gift of words.
I have written to your prompt here – http://aldersprig.dreamwidth.org/205642.html – and it was fun!
I have gifted your words here – http://aldersprig.livejournal.com/364382.html

A person being given as a gift.
Can I have the same one again, with a different pair, for my second prompt? *grins*
AG or Cali? ;-D
Cali please!
Amusingly, that’s what I was going to do anyway, since I had two ideas, one AG and one Cali 😀
