Sharing Your B2MeM Pieces Here

[dawn_felagund]

In about four hours, the first BINGO number will be posted! :) We've been working up to this point for a month and a half now, so it's exciting to finally be so close to getting started!

One of the good things about having a separate B2MeM community is that participants now have a centralized location in which to share their creations, no matter the source material, rating, or other factors that may have made a B2MeM piece ineligible for certain B2MeM affiliate groups in the past. I want to encourage participants to post their work here but to please use the posting format under the LJ-cut below. All B2MeM pieces are welcome.

As in the past, our founding websites the Silmarillion Writers' Guild and Many Paths to Tread both welcome B2MeM-inspired pieces that meet their specific posting guidelines. For the artists among us, this year, Arda Inspired has also joined us and has a separate section for B2MeM artwork.

( If you wish to share your work on the community ... )

This information is always available on the community profile page.

Once you make a significant start on a prompt or prompts for today's number, please leave a comment on this post.

If you've publicly posted a piece and would like to share a link so that others may enjoy your work, please feel free to do so.
