A lot of what I write is barely to prompt.

"Contes Barbares?" On scene with a snake out of 14,000 words.

Just because a fic used a prompt does not make it any more or any less. It makes it a fic that has a prompt somewhere in its history. I guess that's better than rage? And I say that as a rageohol powered writer.

That said, I tend to use vodka.
