[brightknightie]

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

Ficathons, fests & communities that welcome FK

• fkficfest is on for this year, challenge-style, and will elect prompts soon. Come play!
• theficclub is a new community for reading and discussing fanfic.
• ushobwri ("You Should Be Writing") will focus on works in progress (WIP) through February.
• sunshine_challenge, the July equivalent of January's snowflake_challenge, has announced that it's on this year. (In the meantime, the Snowflake Challenge has no deadlines.)
• dove_drabbles is a monthly prompt community (not actually limited to drabbles).
• rthstewart is hosting a 3-Sentence Ficathon (not actually limited to 3-sentence fills).
• fancake's February round features "character development."
