tictactales is OPEN... so who wants to sprint with me? The prompt tables go out March 1st, and you have until March 18th to write your heart out. That's it. Sort of. I missed torturing people with my wheel of odd prompts over at tamingthemuse, so I built a PROMPT WHEEL OF HELL. Nine separate categories--one hundred options per category. Oh yeah, that puppy is a sadistic glory. Sign up for a tile and you will get nine prompts on a table and you will have to use three at a time to create a tic tac toe pattern (tic tac toe... tic tac tales... clever, huh?)

This is a sample tile, but it's not the one you'll be writing from because there are one hundred different options under each of those nine categories.


So, are there any masochists out there? Everyone is welcome.

i really love this idea! and props on the prompt wheel of hell(trademark pending hehe) too lmao of course now i kinda want to see a human au of a candid cross-dressing xander lusting after a uniformed spike...hmmmm lol

LOL. You know, that wouldn't be a bad idea for a story, but that's the whole thing about prompts... they take the muse in some odd directions, and I generally LOVE IT

i've never done one of the prompt challenges that i've seen some of you do (the kind with the prompt tables) just the taming the muse ones so i'm both intrigued and intimidated by the idea, not to mention all my WIPs i've been ignoring lately are staring at me and making me feel guilty for even -considering- starting something else lol

Awwww. You know, you could use it to work on your WIPs. I hope to use a trio of prompts to work on my Dilly story.

that's true too, i didn't think of that. you never know where inspiration will lead you, hell two whole series of fics i have are strictly from the tamingthemuse prompts and they both started off as just one shots. oh, since it's -extemely- unlikely that same set of prompts will come up again, can i share that bunny over with spanderfiles?

Of course you may!! I think that's be a good idea. And I do understand what you mean about tamingthemuse inspiring interesting ideas. They've landed in my profic more than once.
