Hello, loves! I can't believe I haven't updated with a new challenge since before the holidays! Thank you for all being so patient with me. Now that I have Drabble Tag 6 results and I'm a little more organized, I have a much better schedule for upcoming challenges. You've all been amazing, and I thank you for making this community consistently awesome.
With no further ado, I welcome you all to 2016 with Challenge 484--
fireworks.
Standard comm rules apply to the weekly challenge - 100 - 250 words, any f/f pairing, any fandom. See the user
info for complete rules. Also, please remember to tag your entries 'challenge484' as well as 'author: yourname', 'fandom: yourfandom' and, if applicable, 'crossover.'
