I'm not saying that this is going to lead to anything, I'm just wondering out loud.
Has there ever been any sort of ficathon, wherein there is a single prompt that everyone uses? I guess the "Five Things" things that I've seen is at the least similar to what I'm thinking of. What would it be like to have a single prompt--I don't think it could be something too specific--and ten or fifteen or however many stories built around it? What kind of variety of stories could come out a single prompt?
