January 2016 Potluck Challenge
Welcome to the 2016 January Potluck Challenge. For those of you who are new to this challenge, it's where we (1) give you a chance to finish up and post any challenges you did not finish during 2015, or (2) give you a chance at some of the prompts that did not get used during the past year or (3) both.
This year we are trying something new. Instead of striking out the prompts as people use them, simply choose your prompt and claim it, but we will leave it for others to claim as well. In addition, you are not limited to just one prompt. You may claim as many as you like; we do ask that you put each claim in a separate comment, as it will help us keep track of things better. If you want to, you may claim a prompt, finish it and then claim another. You may also comment to say if you are finishing up a story from previous challenges.
In addition, we are adding the Yule Fic Exchange prompts this year to give you even more to choose from!
Your stories will be due in the moderator's queue by Friday, January 22, and will be unlocked on Monday, January 25. Please tag your story "month: 2016 January" and "challenge: potluck" Please remember to use the following header template (also found on the community profile page), and to put the name of your story and your name in the subject line.
To claim your prompts, please leave a comment to this post. If you have any questions, please comment here or e-mail the mods at manypaths@lotrgfic.com.
