FK Recently: What You Guys Have Been Up To (10/01/19-11/02/19)

How is it November already?

For the month of October, in my corners of social journaling, here are the Forever Knight items that I happened to see:

Ficathons, fests & communities that welcome FK

  • Yuletide sign-ups close at 9am UTC on 11/04. For info, see [community profile] yuletide_admin and a countdown.
  • [community profile] inspiring_tables is an unofficial revival of the 15kisses, 15kinks, 15woes, and whole_new_world prompt communities.
  • [community profile] writetomyheart is a community that plays fiction "shiritori," taking turns posting short pieces that begin with the end of the previous piece.
  • [community profile] story_works is running a challenge for paranormal fanworks 11/01/19-12/31/20.
  • [community profile] fancake, a community for fanworks and recommendations, has set its November theme to: "soulmates."
