We've come a long way since 1970, baby! :)
Reminders: five weeks left for the Green and Wee!Dick Challenges! Today's a perfect day to dream up something for the Green Challenge and The Wheel Of The Year Challenge. Prompt: Beltane. Where are all the Pagans on my flist? :)

May. 1st, 2008 01:03 pmA Merry Beltane to all! It's May Day, and it's absolutely gorgeous out! In fact, I might not be on very much at all today, and might have to post my review of Smallville's "Apocalypse" tomorrow. I'll see. :)
I am looking forward to tonight's episode very much as like-minded folk have given it their recommendation. Can't wait! :)
But today? Today is the apple blossoms blooming white against a clear blue sky, the thin contrail of an airplane up, up, and away creating wispy ribbons. The smell of those blossoms is heavenly.
The light is that special April light you get: something that artists pine for and try to capture.
I am in a creative mood right now, so expect quite a bit of fic in the next week or so if all goes well.
Celebrate the day by eating fresh, succulent fruit or food rich in flavor.
And if you have any sexy bunnies, today's the day to write 'em and post! ;)

Well, yesterday was Beltane, the first day of May and a day closely associated with fertility and sex! ;) So I was thinking of issuing a Beltane/Spring Challenge to any interested parties:
Write a fic, draw an illo, create a manip/icon:
1) Any length (drabble, ficlet, short story, long story, etc.)
2) Any genre (romance, angst, drama, humor, PWP, AU, etc.)
3) Any rating (G through NC-17)
4) Any pairing (or threesome, or foursome ;) You know my favorites but as with the Fic Prompts #1 I don't want to stifle people's Muses. I'll probably do some prompts or challenges in the future with specific pairings but not this time! :)
5) Celebrate love! Use the theme of Beltane for the celebration of sex/love, and include elements of spring. Of course you might think bright and happy fic at first glance, but if you have any darker themes you might like to work with (including deathfic), go for it! :)
6) Since Beltane is a Wiccan holiday, if you want to include elements of magic, please do!
If you think your flist or LJ comm might be interested in this Beltane/Spring Challenge, please feel free to call their attention to it. The more the merrier! :)
As with the Fic Prompts #1 , please put in your fic link(s) in this post. Thank you kindly! :)
