10 Year WOLFiversary!

Welcome to WOLF's 10th anniversary!! We would not be able to celebrate such a distinctive milestone without our amazing community. Thank you to everyone for all the years of brilliant writing and collaboration. We are excited to share with you a little surprise for the month of July, a small community-driven BWP featuring both OOC and IC events for all.

To participate, you do not need to sign up -- but you do need to track your own threads individually and submit them here once the festival is over. Each category has a prize for the top winner, featuring art from our own community. The event runs July 1st to August 31st . Keep in mind that only threads started after July 1st count, and they must have at least 9 replies and be archived to count. Each thread may only count for a single prompt.
