Welcome to our own version of the FanFic100 Challenge! The difference is that we will work through this one together! I hope they will inspire us! Look over the list. If there is a word you want, post a reply here with the number and word. The word does not have to be included in the fic, but the story should at least be inspired by it. When you have posted the story elsewhere, add the link! Repeats are, of course, welcome, but let's try to get through the 30 prompts first! Oh, and let's try to keep them under 500 words, please!

Good luck and happy writing!

1. Charms	2. Roots	3. Student	4. Professor	5. First
6. Last	7. Awkward	8. Fun	9. Indecent	10. Sweet
11. Sour	12. Tackle	13. Complicated	14. Simple	15. Believer
16. Shop	17. Yes	18. No	19. Maybe	20. Fast

I'm taking number 8: Fun. (that sounds strange for me, doesn't it?) I'm already writing it down, but it has to be betaed, of course.
Must I give it a title or is the prompt already a title itself? I have no ideas about it, you know!

All generalizations are false, including this one.

Land where my love has grown,
To you, my dear Big Apple,
With hope, your Little Son."

Sorry to doublepost folks, but i thought it would be nice to have an updated table at this point (yes, i know Sprinks has done that at the top of the list too), because we'll probably look at the bottom more than the top. Yes, we are female and like our bottoms. Well... Wood's bottom.

1. Charms 2. Roots 3. Student 4. Professor 5. First
6. Last 7. Awkward 8. Fun 9. Indecent 10. Sweet
11. Sour 12. Tackle 13. Complicated 14. Simple 15. Believer
16. Shop 17. Yes 18. No 19. Maybe 20. Fast
21. Slow 22. Bench 23. Desk 24. Tree 25. Life
26. Death 27. Trunks 28. Young 29. Old 30. Age

The ones in bold writing are the ones already taken.

And i have taken indecent!

Dearest Sprinks,

i know you are supposed to take down this section of the board, but i would really like to keep this thread going, because i think it is fun, a challenge and extending the challenge really oughtn't be a problem.

Will you please think about it?
