The new prompt for this week is:

Symmetry

Which, if it helps get the mind working, can be defined as:
1: balanced proportions ; also : beauty of form arising from balanced proportions
2: the property of being symmetrical ; especially : correspondence in size, shape, and relative position of parts on opposite sides of a dividing line or median plane or about a center or axis — compare bilateral symmetry , radial symmetry
3: a rigid motion of a geometric figure that determines a one-to-one mapping onto itself
4: the property of remaining invariant under certain changes (as of orientation in space, of the sign of the electric charge, of parity, or of the direction of time flow) —used of physical phenomena and of equations describing them

As an unrelated pimp, xmas_rocks is almost ready to start accepting sign-ups for this year's bandslash fic exchange, and there are a few days left to nominate pairings. So please check out the F.A.Q. and see if it's something you'd like to give a try, if you haven't before! It's always a lot of fun and we get some great stories from it.

Because responses to previous prompts are always welcome, I thought it best to create a master list of all challenges, which will be updated as they are added. So you can always browse back to this post to see what challenges are available to work from.

Also, don't forget that if you have a suggestion for a future challenge, please leave it as a comment on this post.

1. Contrast
2. Parallels
3. One word (Your drabble must contain one word of dialog--no more, no less.)
4. Sleeping arrangements

Prompt #10 - Rhythm

( It's in his fingers; his head; his hips. )

I very well realize that this community may be dead, but I just discovered it, and have been wanting a good drabble community for a while. So if there's any chance of it revivifying, I'd like to help with that.

OK, the last three prompts have been washouts (and true I haven't kept up with posting one weekly but no one's been asking for new prompts either).

I'm not sure at this point whether there is still interest in the community or not; if not I may simply close it down as a worthy experiment that just didn't make it.

That said, with it being a new year, your newest prompt is

Resolutions

OK, last two prompts have been strike outs, maybe this one will inspire someone to write...something?

In the closet

Interpret as you will.
