We also have a Ko-fi page (also PayPal) and Cash.me.

This prompt call is officially OPEN!

It will run through Saturday September 7th @ 2PM EST.

I'm looking for prompts on the theme of "companion animals". This includes pets/companion animals, service/emotional support/therapy animals, and animals who serve as sidekick-companions.

Everyone who prompts will get one prompt filled free of charge in the form of either a ficlet (probably between 100-300 words) or a short poem (probably 5-10 lines). One prompt may be fanfiction in which case it will default as your freebie. You can find my fandoms linked to my AO3 account.

In lieu of tips, I'm taking donations to my page for the Walk for Animals which is next weekend September 8th. All donations go toward helping the MSPCA support its mission of advocating for animals in a variety of forms. Using the link above you can donate by card or paypal.

If you'd like to work out an alternate payment (i.e. cash or check), contact me back-channel via message or comment with a way to contact you, and I'll give you the address & information.

My donation goal for the session is $75.




Donations can be used to sponsor additional prompts or possibly add words or lines or some variation of a continuation of a work already posted.

If we meet session goal, I'll unlock a meta post to everyone. For the purposes of this, meta can be anything from a crowdsourced ask-the-author session to background information on one of the universes that appeared in this session to a playlist to collaborative adoption opportunities.

Linkbacks (of up to four unique services) will enter you into a drawing for an additional story which can be used either for this session or held as a coupon for the next session.
