2024 wasn't my best year for writing, and 2025 poses several challenges to my usual Winter Writing Season. Primarily my commitment to sew more this year - at least 1 sewing project a month. I stopped sewing for no discernable reason in 2014 (looks side-eyed at Depression) and I started to pick it up again a decade later in 2024. I want to stay committed to that goal, but am not completely willing to sacrifice writing.

So, a new strategy is necessary! Instead of a full monthly Bingo Card based on the bingo fest's happening on the AllBingo site, I've instead made all of the best looking fests their own square on my 2025 Reader Suggestions Bingo Card and I've filled the other squares with all the reader's suggestions I received in 2024 that I haven't fulfilled. As a month's bingo fest is announced I will come back to this board and update that month's square with a real prompt from the prompt lists given.

My plan is to make 200+ word fills for most of my prompts. These might not end up being a complete story for each fill, but many of them connect into longer stories in my ongoing series:
  • The Earthen - Fantasy - The tales of The Earthen, tiny nutlike beings who live in warrens, and are highly cooperative.
  • Green Skies G.T. - Cozy Science Fiction - The monthly logs of G.T., a sentient apartment dwelling, and it's inhabitants. Currently there are 3 monthly logs posted, and I'm actively writing the log for April 2053.
  • OtherWorldly - Dark Urban Fantasy - Carnelle the Succubus is on the Hunt for a killer.
  • RePrint - Science fiction - Althea has chosen to undergo an unusual medical procedure that will allow her to imprint new memories of important first experiences.
  • Village Witch - Edwina - Steam Punk/Fantasy setting - These stories are being created as a playthrough of the Solo TTRPG "Village Witch." Edwina has a year to find the village where she belongs as their Village Witch.
  • The Witch's Kitchen - Contemporary Fantasy - Lucia and Jeanette are opening the restaurant of their dreams, and it takes a little magic to make things work.
As the year goes on, I'd appreciate reader suggestions that expand on any word or phrase on the bingo card that I add through the Bingo Fests. Feel free to make suggestions that tie into my ongoing series or for something completely new.

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!

  • The Earthen - Fantasy - The tales of The Earthen, tiny nutlike beings who live in warrens, and are highly cooperative.
  • Green Skies G.T. - Cozy Science Fiction - The monthly logs of G.T., a sentient apartment dwelling, and it's inhabitants.

For this bingo I'm doing something a little fun - I had a chocolate bar recently that was divided into little pieces with words, and I took a cute pic to use as this month's bingo card! I'll list the squares below as they're filled to keep track of my progress towards a bingo.

This is my prompt card for the January 2023 Public Domain Day Bingo Fest challenge at the AllBingo site.

I've got this kind of "reverse hibernation" situation going on with my writing, where I'm most successful in the cold winter months, and too distracted by The Outside in Spring/Summer/Fall to stay at the keyboard. So, we're just going to roll with it again this year and see how much creativity can strike in these first 3 months of 2023!

I'm sticking with the plan of making short ~200 word fills for my prompts - these short fills will most likely NOT end up being a complete story for each fill, but many of them connect into longer stories in my OtherWorldy series, VillageWitch game, and RePrint series.

I'd enjoy reader suggestions for any word or phrase on the bingo card, and will do my best to make a fill for every request.

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!

This is my prompt card for the March 2021 Celtic Bingo Fest challenge at the AllBingo site.
 
I made it through February and am still writing! This is very exciting & I'll be continuing my goal of 200 word fills into March with a new bingo card. These short fills will most likely NOT end up being a complete story for each fill, but they're a number I know I can commit to.
 
I enjoy taking suggestions any readers want to offer for any word or phrase on the bingo card, and I'll try to make a fill for every request. I'm still not able to promise a fill, but 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!
