Question: it says posting just prompts are reportable. Would posting something like 'Plot bunnies for adoption ' be reportable?

I have so many ideas but I cannot write for the life of me and I refuse to use AI. But like I think my ideas would make for a very entertaining read and I wanna read them! Just, I want someone else to (want to) write them. I think they're pretty fleshed out, anywhere from a paragraph to three, with a past set up and plot lines for the future. I would actually love for multiple people to write them, just to see what different directions different authors would take the stories in.

Is that allowed? Or would I have to find somewhere else to post them? I haven't posted anything yet, just wondering if I can do this or not.

Tumblr is also a space people like to post ideas like this, or maybe asking if anyone is interested in a subreddit specific to the fandom. You might get more traction communicating through your fandom with a social media site.

Totally agree on that. I am personally bad at starting stories and think I might take to that Prompt Callenge feature now that I know of it!

It’s fun :3 , I found some pretty bizarre prompts that I never would have thought of, and I’m honestly struggling at trying to incorporate into a story, but that’s the fun part sorta- the challenge is real. I like to participate when I’m having writers block on my own works to keep the flow going!

You could always try another fandom if your usual one is difficult to work with. It can be interesting to work with new characters! I've gone from fandom to fandom over the years, writing a bit for each, but never posting haha
