Stories have been posted - they're all from prompts from December, so thank you all for your patience. For some reason it's been really hard to write to prompts at the moment, even though I usually love it. I have two more to write to, which are the two most difficult, but I hope they'll be up by the end of the week.

Until Friday I will be Internetless again, because James and I will be spending time together away from my place, but feel free to email or PM me. I will get back to you when I get back.

Also this is early warning for the next prompts session, which will be starting on Monday the 30th of January. This prompts session is for Imbolc, so prompts for that would be good, or New Year as it's the Chinese New Year today, or anything else you would like to prompt me on.

Prompts day went well for me. Six stories were written, one of which was 2500 words thanks to a donation from a friend. :) However my editing abilities failed badly, so [personal profile] ysabetwordsmith found ten typos and received the chance to choose whether she wanted to adopt a character, have stories written based on her prompts, have bonus material posted, or get a mix of all three. Unsurprisingly she went for a mix of all three, which are for the Donor House collection. (I think she likes it.) Two pieces of bonus material will be going up - one is an unfinished timeline for the Donor House that will be edited as more characters and points in history are added; the second is a short piece on vampire's eating and drinking habits, as Issac was drinking whiskey. She's also given me three prompts to work on and has adopted Morgan for five months.

[personal profile] meeks chose to adopt Aurora after winning August's surprise prize, which now won't be as much of a surprise as it was for her because now people know it exists. I hope it was a nice surprise. She also prompted me towards the end of my prompts day, which means that I got five prompts and one piece of bonus material will be posted. It will be on the magic of Aurora's world.

Also, because I received a £6 donation one more free story will be posted this month. I emailed my donor and asked her what she'd like to see and she chose, unsurprisingly to me, Introducing Amber, which will be going up sometime next week. I've got to edit my sponsorable stories list because I have some that are ready for sponsorship that I haven't posted, so I'll probably do that either tonight or tomorrow. Once that's done I'm going to focus on writing as much as possible while my partner is in Russia. He'll be gone for another fifteen days so I should be able to get a lot done. :) First thing on the list is the two first month's adoption stories, then [personal profile] ysabetwordsmith's prompts, then [personal profile] unico_love's prompt as she won the signal boosters story, and then I have some things I want to write.

Eight stories of five hundred words (or just over) have been written. Thank you to all those who prompted. :) I think they all end, but at the same time I wanted to make it possible for me to continue the story. Is it possible to have everything that I have written today continued whether you were the original prompter or not. All PDFs should be done by Monday at the lastest so if all my prompters would like to send me an email address that they'd like them to go to via PM then I can email them as soon as they're ready.

Prompts are permanently open if anyone wants to prompt a story and I might change it so that all prompters receive a copy of their story if it's written that is for their eyes only. Would this be better for those who would be interested in prompting me? Then I can put it up for sponsorship so it can be opened up for everyone.

The next day I think I'm going to spend working on prompts is going to be the 1st of September and then I have a week when I need as much work to do as possible because James will be in Russia and Nan is in Croatia. I'll find out when that is and give a date soon.

Then, hopefully, I'm thinking of doing an Autumn Equinox special prompts time (three days long), with special donor perks, that I may do on a time basis rather than a words basis. So for half an hour I will work on a story and donations will lead to me working longer. The donor perks make me smiley too, although I think it's making a lot of work for me. It will be worth the donation though so I think it might be better for donors.

On Saturday I'm planning on spending the day, hopefully, working on prompted stories. At the moment there are so many things that I want to write that I find it hard to focus, so the plan is to try to get some of the people who have added one of my writing accounts involved in what I'm doing. I will write 500 words on every prompt that I get which will be posted on my writing account and sent to the prompted, probably as a PDF. If anyone wants more words on any of the stories then each additional 500 words will be £1.50, up to a limit of £12.00 for 4000 words. You can choose a specific story or I will pick a story to carry on if you don't want to choose.

The sorts of prompts I'm looking for are character prompts, eg. a story with Autumn and Tamara; collection prompts; or even single word prompts, eg. hope, tea, snuggling.

If I get ten prompts then I will post one piece of bonus material and this does include multiple prompts from one person, so if someone gives me two prompts then we will only need eight more. If I get 20 prompts there will be two piece of bonus material, and this will continue up to fifty prompts.

This is basically to get more free to read stories on my writing account so I'm not planning for huge amounts of money, but normal donor perks will be available and if I get more than £50 then I will think of a special donor perk for those who donated.

I will be open for prompts on this post from now until 6pm BST on Saturday.

Prompts are now CLOSED.
