aldersprig: a close up of an alder leaf (Leaf)

Looking at the Mid-month mini-giraffe-call poll (LJ), right now, it appears that the 4th-5th of February is the clear winner.

Would people be interested in watching me livewrite for some period of time during that call?

The "which 'verse?" section right now appears to be settled on Aunt Family, by a 2-point lead over Reiassan or Dragons next door. I'll close that on Friday, just because it's already swung twice.

In the meantime, looking further ahead, I posted "Pretty Icons," (LJ) a discussion on possible February Giraffe Themes based on [personal profile] dhamphir's free icons (Hey, that's how I picked October's Call!).

The theme I suggested was "wine and roses:" it seems wide enough to allow for entirely non-romance-based prompts while still being a bit seasonal (Mind you, the call will be on the 18th, so a little late anyway). What do people think of this? Too close to the dreaded holiday?

Edited to add: Bribery! Give me feedback and I will write you 100 words on the setting of your choice!

I would definitely like to watch you livewrite! I had a lot of fun with that during the fundraiser for Drake.

I like the theme, too. It has that nice balance of specific and open.

That's okay, I don't mind waiting! Just don't get too stressed out! ::hugs::

I like the theme

But, I also don't dread that particular holiday. I would like seeing some romantic stories. I also could see some interesting ways to turn the theme on its head.

But seriously though, a lot of your stories involve courtships and relationships. I bet most of us enjoy that stuff!
