Hey all,
So the happy day is here, and all of the prompts are up on the LJ page!! It’s time to go over there and pick your prompt, and a few are already gone… so you do NOT want to wait on this one.
Just head on over to the LJ site, and as always, click on the pic above to get there.

And this really my absolute pic so far, in a weird way. 
Hey all,
So today is ABSOLUTELY THE LAST DAY to get your prompts in. If you’ve been waiting, wait no more!! Prompt picking will be on the 14th, so this is your LAST chance to turn in your own prompt. And then the FIA D/G Fic Exchange A-GoGo of 2013/14 will begin. 
This really is my absolute favorite out of the ten pics. And remember, I TOLD y’all that this was rated I for Innuendo.
Hey all,
It’s Day 9, and y’all, we are getting down to the wire. If you’ve been thinking about sending in a prompt for the fic exchange, THIS is the time. If you already have sent yours in, then now is the time to convince someone else! We can only do this with YOUR help!
And BTW… this HAS to be my favorite pic so far. Just use your imagination about how Draco got there.
Hey all,
That’s right, it’s Day 7 of our fic exchange! We’ve turned the corner to being more than halfway done with this part, and y’all, we need more prompts. We are currently at 16 prompts submitted. This is great… but we have a long way to go! The 2010 exchange had 51 prompt entries. So now is the time to get yours in!!
We’re halfway through as of today. You know what that means… if you don’t already have your prompt in at dgfics @gmail.com, this would be a good day! (Why is there a space in the email addy? Because of spammers everywhere. That’s why.)
THIS pic was a LOT of work. I’m not even going to say how much time I spent on it, but it shows just how much post you have to do in Photoshop sometimes.
So get in that prompt!
From the LJ Community:

So here’s what to do now.
Submit a prompt request based on what you want to see in a fic written for you. Here’s the template– and remember that the basic theme is rebirth/regeneration.

Check out the rules on the userinfo page if you need a refresher, and let us know if you have any questions! Signups will be open until DECEMBER 10TH.
The previous mods USED TO take the prompt requests as comments on this first post, but I’ve decided that the email option will be easier to handle. That having been said, PLEASE feel free to comment on the prompts or anything else right here.
Don’t forget, send them to dgfics @gmail.com

There’s an idea that’s starting to come up in discussion. XXXEauDeToilettexxx, who runs a D/G Spanish language FB page, is asking if we can put up Spanish language fics on FIA. YES!!!!! was my first reaction. I would love to get some diversity there!!
The only thing, though, is that I can’t do what ffnet does, which is to make fics searchable by category. The Efiction platform itself is going to need to be updated first, and who knows how long that will take. BUT. If we get them up there, I will do everything in my power to pimp them. I will read and review, even if I have to put the whole fic through Babelfish. (I had six years of Spanish in high school and college, but it’s unbelievable how fast a language goes if you don’t use it…) Spanish has got to be the most practical language you could learn in the U.S., by far. So I need to get back to it, and reading these fics is the perfect reason!
I will also do the same thing for fics in any other language. Okay, if they use a different keyboard, this may start to get difficult. But I DO have a friend in another fandom who speaks and writes Japanese pretty well. So we’ll make it work.
Hey,everybody out there in the non-English speaking world!! What do you think?
P.S.: To all: And Happy Day-After-Thanksgiving!
aka, eating all the leftovers for breakfast even though you said you’d never eat again after last night. 
Hey all,
SO… yay!! The WP FIA blog now exists!! If you’re here when it’s first up, you may notice a generic theme and a certain lack of content. These things WILL be fixed; I’m just not sure when. The D/G Fic Exchange a GoGo of 2013/14 begins on Dec 1st– a week from today!! So my guess is that there won’t be much done with this blog until January. Still, that’s not very far away.
We have a tumblr blog, a FB page, a YT channel, and a Twitter account, and links to those will be up soon. But WP is where I REALLY want us to have a presence.
Why?
I guarantee that I’ll be posting more rants about this point…
