I will be holding three absolutely tiny Mini Giraffe Calls over the next few days.
The window for prompting will be open for an hour each time.
These will be:
Tuesday, 1/15/13, from 8:15 – 9:15 a.m. EST, with a theme of the weather
Wednesday, 1/16/13, from 12:30 – 1:20 p.m. EST, with a theme of transitions
and
Thursday, 1/17/13, from 9:15 – 10:15 p.m. EST, with a theme of seven deadly sins.

Can I pre-prompt? The only one I think I have a chance of being around for is the first one. If I don;t fall asleep.
frequent contributors may on a case-by-case basis (you may)
Thank you, gracious lady author. Where should I do so?
E-mail would be best.
Rar, yes, those are tiny little windows. Experimenting, or …?
Combination of experimenting and want to make sure it stays a mini-call, since sometimes I go for mini-calls for time-I-have-available-to-spend and they end up Huge Calls.
The option to buy more words (or signal-boost) can lead to scope-creep! How much writing would you like a mini-call to lead to?
That… is a very good question. Let’s see, if I say “enough I can finish it in the month” I have to define how much that is. Which should be about 300 words/day. Awkward number, since microfics run 250. But 500 words can be pushing it.
Does that 300 words/day include only the call itself, or also commissions and your current flash project and addergoole and R&G revisions and …? So round down, because there will be busy days, and call it 250 words/day. So no more than fifteen prompts for five hundred words each? Would it be reasonable to just cut off at that many?
Just the call. I’m averaging about 1200 a day total. Hrrm. I could do that next time (March; February will be a full call). Just cut it at 15, or 10, or something.
