Writing In the Community:
This year's A to Z Challenge series is going to be a community effort. List your word suggestions in the "suggestions" columns (make more columns if you need) and I'll pick one word the day before to write a short flash fiction piece of at least 500 words. Leave your name with the suggestions and a link to your blog/twitter/soc media so I can credit you! You can do that by adding your name to the column (if you have a whole list of suggestions), or by bracketing your name/link after your word suggestion on the misc/anonymous column (if you only want to make one or two suggestions).
Word selections are likely to be completely random, but might be biased towards stuff I usually write about, i.e. folklore, mythology, fairy tales, fantasy. But anything goes. My blog is kid-friendly, so keep that in mind.
