Is there a minimum/maximum word count?

Min/Max is the same for every challenge/prompt graph - 100 minimum with the max being sky's the limit. The only thing holding you back from writing a novel for challenges is the time limit! :)

Oh my God, when I re-read this I nearly died. I hadn't seen the list of prompts down there the first time and went straight on to pick a table and used it for the "If you were" challenge without knowing that the challenge has its own set of prompts.

I'm now going to go and edit my posts in the community and take out the challenge tags.

For prompt #9, "If I was in pain I know you'd sing me soothing songs," are we allowed to incorporate copyrighted song lyrics for the purposes of the story?

I believe that it is fine to quote lyrics as long as you credit the song in an Author Note. The whole thing about fanfic is that you aren't making money on it so as long as you don't claim that you're the one who wrote the lyrics, it should be fine.
