January Fresh Starts Bingo Card

[nsfwords]

This is my prompt card for the January 2021 Fresh Starts Bingo challenge at the AllBingo site.

I had a great deal of fun in 2017 making short 200 word fills for my prompts & am feeling ready to try writing again after a long hiatus. These short fills will most likely NOT end up being a complete story for each fill, but they're a reasonable number I feel confident I can commit too.

I'll certainly consider any suggestions readers want to offer for any word or phrase on the bingo card, but I'm not able to promise I'll make a fill for your request. I still feel bad about leaving unfulfilled requests the last time I tried writing regularly & would hate to create that kind of disappointment again - I can only say I'll do my best!

Squares that have been filled with 200 words of story will be Struck Through so it will be easy for everyone to keep track of what's been done & how close I am to a Bingo!

I believe in a high-inspiration, low-pressure artistic environment. No expectations, no disappointment.

I'd enjoy seeing a story or scene about imprinting, where someone makes deliberate and responsible use of a moment of imprint vulnerability.

You've seen some examples in my Hurt/Comfort writing, but it doesn't have to be that intense. One time I did it was when we were setting up for Ostara and a friend mentioned that he had never gotten to decorate Easter eggs as a child. O_O "Well, we're going to fix that right now," I said, and so we did.
