Looking at the Mid-month mini-giraffe-call poll (LJ), right now, it appears that the 4th-5th of February is the clear winner.
Would people be interested in watching me livewrite for some period of time during that call?
The “which ‘verse?” section right now appears to be settled on Aunt Family, by a 2-point lead over Reiassan or Dragons next door. I’ll close that on Friday, just because it’s already swung twice.
In the meantime, looking further ahead, I posted “Pretty Icons,” (LJ) a discussion on possible February Giraffe Themes based on dhamphir‘s free icons (Hey, that’s how I picked October’s Call!).
The theme I suggested was “wine and roses:” it seems wide enough to allow for entirely non-romance-based prompts while still being a bit seasonal (Mind you, the call will be on the 18th, so a little late anyway). What do people think of this? Too close to the dreaded holiday?
Edited to add: Bribery! Give me feedback and I will write you 100 words on the setting of your choice!

Wine and/or roses gives lots of room to cover everything from trying to make a struggling vineyard profitable to the symbolism of white roses. If it has to be wine *and* roses, it’s a bit harder to escape the romance theme, but should still be doable. I will largely ignore the “dreaded holiday” regardless.
An/or is good. 😉 100 words on your choice of topic!
The gremlins in Junie’s backpack?
I can work with wine or roses. Should be fun!
Cool!
