July Mini-Girafe Call: Addergoole Summer Camp!

The July Mini-Giraffe Call is OPEN!

The theme this month is Addergoole Summer Camp

For the next 60 hours, leave your prompts on Addergoole characters, Addergoole themes, and the like... in the summer. Or at camp. Be creative, be silly. I know I will be!

Reiassan has a landing page here (and on LJ)

Because this is a mini-Call, there will be mini-perks!

* For every $10 donated, one prompter chosen at random will get an extra 500-word story -
* For every $30 donated, I will write a second story to three people's prompts - chosen at random
* $60 level pending ;-)

* If you donate, as always, you have sponsored 100 words continuation on any Giraffe story for every $1US donated, and I will write to at least one additional prompt of yours.

* For every prompter I will write 50 words on an extra story. For every linkback, 25 words. Every donation, 75 words!

At least 1/2 the proceeds of this Call will go towards hiring crowdfunded art or editing for the Addergoole Year 9 e-book.

Tell me your favorite Addergoole characters you'd like to see in a story!

Who knew Yngvi could punch that hard?)
