I'd like to test our prompting experiment before we open the real thing this coming Sunday, May 3.
This year's new approach: Every FKFicFest community member may submit one (1) prompt, anonymously, for writers to use, combine, or ignore as they please. No claiming (multiple people may use the same prompt). And no reveals (the prompts stay anonymous, including to me). If I've selected the right options, the poll below will collect and display one (1) anonymous free-text answer per community member.

P.S. Also, the poll it set to allow only community members to reply. If you can't reply to the poll. please join the community first. Thanks!

Date: 5/3/26 10:37 pm (UTC)I just now looked up "kimono" to learn whether that word can apply to a man's garment as well as a woman's, and it can! I had always thought "kimono" was specific to Japanese women's garments. Something new for me to learn; thank you.
