Writing challenge community!

I participated in a few timed writing challenges at TWH, and it reminded me how much fun those sorts of things can be. Challenges are great in general, but the timed ones can provide great opportunities to push yourself as a writer. So why not extend the TWH experience a bit? :-D

hp_quince is a community for timed writing challenges, modelled after contrelamontre. A challenge prompt will be issued every Sunday. The idea is that sometime within the week, participants will write for fifteen minutes. They will post whatever they managed to write during that time. All genres, pairings, kinks, etc., are welcome.

See the first post for more information. :-) The first challenge will be posted Sunday!
