Halloween In July?

Oh, man, I'm having fun! I'm looking over last year's Halloween Challenge and letting ideas run around in my head for this year's. I might end up just repeating the guidelines from last year, or it could be completely different! Anyway, I got in the mood because in my 'other identity', I'm a member of
halloween_fan, and we've been discussing how we're always ready for autumn! ;)
I was so happy to get such a big response to last year's Challenge! Everyone loves Halloween, seems like. :)
I want to unveil something big and exciting and most of all, fun! ;)
I'm also getting a little scared thinking about my LJ anniversary in November and how I might be entertaining masochistic tendencies by not setting a limit on requests (or at least waiting until I hit a number high up there before I close it). ;) I will probably do a repeat of the Mood Ring Fic Request Meme, using moods again or maybe some other hook, but that'll be after Halloween, so I can rest easy for now! ;)
So, if you get any Halloween-related plot bunnies, make sure to write down notes and be ready once summer's heat is over to enter a new Halloween Challenge when autumn arrives!

I'll be hosting an Autumn Challenge at the Free For All, myself, and I'm sure the two will overlap *just enough*. ^_~ *giggles madly*

Crossover fic is definitely welcome! I know Gotham seems like the perfect setting for the DCU part, but there are so many wonderful characters to choose from! :)
I'm going to let my ideas simmer and hope to put up the Challenge around Labor Day. That gives people plenty of time to think about it, and also I sometimes get Halloween-related fic on my birthday! ;)

As for getting Halloween fic for your b-day, I do believe that's what you got from *me* last year! *snickers* XD Man, I'm in a giggly mood tonight! *cackles*

Very great minds! :)
It's a good time to present Autumn/Halloween Challenges. Gives people time to come up with something, and gets us all excited! ;) Actually, come to think of it, I'd better start thinking of a story idea myself! Can't run a Halloween Challenge without contributing! ;)

Yes, and it was Bruce/Dick fic to boot! I've reread it several times. :)
My Clex bunnies are really nibbling! I just thought of a new story while washing the car today. :)
