CHALLENGE: Summer/Winter Holidays, Round TEN - The Memory Lane Edition
Ten years. It's crazy to think we've done this for a decade - and as always, we're thrilled the Holidays are here!
For those who are new: we have a terrific group of authors and artists who have spent the last month creating works for a special set of prompts, and now it's time to showcase them, one by one - and to let you all loose on them as well!
This year's theme? We've already had an Anniversary Edition for Summer/Winter Holidays 5, so instead we're celebrating our anniversary with a trip down memory lane. Our comm has a decade to look back on - and Jack and the Doctor have far, far longer. How do they keep track of where they've gone, when they've met, who they've seen? So, this year, we're taking a look in their metaphorical photo album. We're giving you a person (their name's on the tip of Jack's tongue... ;) ), an action (what WAS going on?), a memento (where did you get THAT?) and a description (you wouldn't believe me if I told you).
Every creator who signed up was assigned one of the prompts, and we'll be posting their works over the course of the month. In addition, for the whole month of August, all of these prompts are open for anyone in the comm to write or create to. As usual with Winter Companions challenges, you can interpret any of these however you like. You're not required to use all of a prompt group - they're just meant as something to get your ideas flowing. :)
Please let our authors and artists know you appreciate their work! And while you're at it, we hope you'll offer some of your own. Come and join our party!
The prompt groups are listed below, and they're all open for the taking. There's no particular order to them, and you can post your responses any day this month.
