First off, gleeeee! that with 20 participants, we ended up with way more than 20 stories. First there was the enthusiastic person who wrote one for each of his recipient's three prompts instead of choosing one. Then there were the "party favor" drabbles as a surprise from co-mods brightknightie and amilyn to all the participants who posted their contributions on time ( Read more... )
