May Giraffe Call: Origins and Creations (Call of Nature)

[aldersprig]

The call for prompts is now OPEN!

I am now taking prompts on the theme of Origins and Creation Leave one or many prompts, and I will write (over the next month) at least one microfic (150-500 words) to each prompter (prompts may be combined)

Prompts can be related to one of my extant settings (See my landing page) or they can be for something completely different.

Prompting is free! But Donations are always welcome.

If you have donated, I will write to one extra prompt of yours.

In addition, for each $5 you donate, I will write an additional 500 words to the prompt(s) of your choice.

If I get two new prompters or one new donator, I will write a setting piece (setting chosen by poll).

At $30 in donations, T & I will get take-out!

At $40 in donations, I will post an additional 1000-2000-word fic on the subject of the audience's choice.

At $50, anyone who donated $7.50 or more will have a copy of "Alder by Post" mailed to them if they wish

At $70, I will write two extra 500-word continuations - chosen by prompters picked by random number generator

At $100, I will write three extra 500-word continuations - chosen by prompters picked by random number generator

At $105, T & I will buy ourselves a reel mower!

At $130, I will record a podcast of an audience-choice story and post it for everyone to read.

If I reach $200, I will hold a mid-month Call on a single setting of the readers' choice. Everyone who tipped will get wordcount-and-a-half

This is the Call of Nature, Mark 1, Because I am saving up for: (1) Yard stuff, and then (2) Bathroom fixtures. ;-)

Also, are the Smiths of DND actual smiths, or had ancestors that where? A dragon forging would be interesting.
