Week Five Drabbles
Welcome to Week Five of the second round of mp_ldws! Okay, guys, we're down to the wire now. One winner, One disqualification until only one is left standing. Good luck this week! *insert evil laugh here*
A quick reminder to players before we reveal our prompts for the week... When you're writing your drabbles, please keep in mind the rules of the community. If you are unsure your drabble satisfies those rules, please feel free to send it to the mods for checking before you officially submit it. We are lenient folk, but if a drabble clearly violates one of our rules and it's been officially submitted without explanation or clarification, you will regretfully be disqualified.
Week Five Prompts
This week, the prompts are:
Genre/Cliché: Jealousy/Envy
Word: parchment
Word Count: exactly 200
Remember, your drabble must fit the genre or cliché, and you must use the word prompt somewhere in your drabble. Any drabbles that don’t adhere to the exact word count, deadline, or prompt use will be eliminated. (On some word processing programs, html coding is included in the final word count so please be careful to ensure your number of actual words is correct. If in doubt, please use this word counter to check.)
Teams
Teams for this week are as follows:
All players will write for Team Moony this week.
chlare
escribo
gorthead
lotherington
whitmans_kiss
anothersaturday
eprime
huntingsnarks
You must write from the POV of the character whose team you are on each week or you will be asked to resubmit your drabble or be disqualified. This is not a permanent allocation so please check for your name each week.
All drabbles are due by 7.00pm Sunday 13th March (EST--think New York), and there will 1 winner and 1 elimination this week.
We are using a simplified header. Please do not make any reference to a beta as we will not publish their names (you can thank them later!). Please use the 'Contains' section for any warnings or to provide any information a reader might need to make an informed decision about whether they wish to read on. Eg: Contains: angst, oral sex, naked Hagrid.
Copy and paste this header for your drabble:

Send completed drabbles to the mods at mp.ldwsmod@gmail.com, with your username and the week you're participating in included in the subject line. The drabble can be submitted as an attachment (.doc or .docx only please) or pasted into the body of the email. If you do paste your drabble, please ensure you include < br > codes (without the spaces) wherever you want a hard return as copypasting tends to mess up your line breaks. For example:
"Really, Padfoot? A poodle?"
< br >
"They have such fluffy tails... Are you jealous, Moony?"
We will respond to your submission email to let you know we received it. If you don't hear from us within 24 hours of submission, please let us know through a PM.
Any questions? Poke the mods: dogsunderfoot or remuslives23 either through the email address above or a PM through our journals.
Happy drabbling!
