More Lightning Round Stories Inbound · 12:10am Mar 29th, 2016
The backlog of stories waiting to published to the Lightning Round collab is all caught up! All the stories are copied over, I'm just waiting until tomorrow to publish 7, hopefully 8 or 9 new prompts. You may have already seen my submission pop up in the NSFW Twilestia Collab. It'll stay there for the time being, as I'm trying to figure out future plans for it. That's a conversation for another blog post, however.
