Happy New Year, everybody.

Welcome to a year of song lyric snippets offered up as prompts, along with download links to full versions of the songs.


Prompts can be used for any fandom/pairing or even original fic, if you like. Yes, any. All I ask is that you credit me with providing the prompt and comment with a link to the story.


PROMPT #1

So good-bye, dear, and amen
Here's hoping we meet now and then
It was great fun
But it was just one of those things



Just One of Those Things-Bryan Ferry
Written by Cole Porter
From the album As Time Goes By
  • Location:Home
  • Mood: thankful thankful

Oooh, I'll have to think about this. This is my definitive cover of the song, by The Pogues and Kirsty MacColl.

Thanks for the link. Obviously nobody's going to write every prompt, but I think having a bunch out there is a good thing. If something strikes your muse, go for it.

okay, this is the most absolutely awesome idea for a meme in the world. I was *just* mentioning on my LJ that prompts/challenges are practically the only thing that gets my muse going these days and then I spot this on my friends of friends list.

You earn the wowsaworthy icon of approval!

Awwwwww! Well you'll be spotting one every day for a year, if I can keep it up. My personal challenge is to come up with interesting snippets from a wide variety of music and see who does what with them.

I shall do my best to come up with a few, if not a LOT! And there's so much music out there, there's a LOT of potential!

Would you mind if I friend you?

This is WAY better than the meme a day challenge, and I LOVED the meme a day challenge!!

I was just about to post a list of resolutions, one being I need to write at least a drabble everyday this year. So this is perfect!!

I'm excited! I downloaded this one. Let's see if I can come up with something for January 1st before the day officially ends here, which gives me 39 minutes... ;-)

Okay, so I only "finished" the bit of fic now, but I still made an effort! :-D We'll pretend it doesn't end suddenly... ;-)

Ooh, now this will be interesting. I love to do things with song lyrics, even it's just to use them as titles! We shall see what happens in the next year...

Anything anybody does with the prompts is awesome. All I ask is the link and a credit for the prompt.
