The
fkficfest prompts are out. I'm looking forward to seeing what people come up with.
Writing fic has been a great creative and emotional outlet for me personally these past couple of years. Why FK in particular? I don't know. But as my country slips deeper into brazen lawlessness and breathtaking incompetence at the federal level, I'm grateful for such an outlet.
Last year, someone suggested combining prompts. And I found that combining winning prompts with losing prompts really helped with brainstorming. That exercise put different spins on the winning prompts, fueling fires in the imagination. I will be doing it again, and mention it in case anyone else might find it helpful.
Good luck, FK peeps, see y’all on the other side! 🫡

The hairbrush prompt can easily be used to trigger a flashback to something a writer wants to address. It might be interesting to have it go against expectations and be a character other than Nick or Lacroix having such a flashback -- Natalie's brother Richard is blond, for example, and I believe his daughter is, too, though I should check that to confirm.
