My picfor1000 assignment for 2015 is a black cat and a castle :

[chamekke]

The challenge 13 theme is "unlucky things" (I guess because it's the 13th challenge), and each participant is given a photograph to inspire any fic as long as it weighs in at exactly 1,000 words. Here's my pic:



Admittedly I did go AWOL on my assignment for the previous 2 years. Well, third time lucky, I say! THIS IS THE YEAR WHERE I BREAK THAT TREND. *determined face*

Luckily this image has tons of potential. I've been toying with various ideas involving (a) Sleepy Hollow, (b) Shirley Jackson (i.e. a postscript story to We Have Always Lived In The Castle, because clearly that IS Jonas outside the Blackwood home), or just maybe (c) Warehouse 13. I figure, in a pinch I can do a fic where an artefact turns the world black and white. You know, the way things were in the olden days.

That said - if your first reaction to the pic is "OMFG this would be perfect for {fandom/plot bunny}", I am definitely all ears! *chinhands*

Not sure how many of you are also doing the challenge? I know draycevixen and severinne have both signed up. How are you faring with your prompt?

Yes, it's a lovely photo. I was attracted by the way the different pieces were all reflecting different things. I'm thinking of using it for Spooks (MI5) - and the whole not being the image you are protecting.

But first I need to get my SmallFandomBigBang written.

As plot bunnies go, that's magnificent.

Good luck with your SmallFandomBigBang! What fandom are you writing in? *proffers a pompom waggle*

Lewis - it's a casefic.
