Once again, the pen ink calls, inviting one and all to participate. That's right, it's Inktober time, and the prompts are flying thick and furious. Lessee; I've got seven prompt lists handy, and if anyone's got more, feel free to post 'em. ... I got two of these from Twitter, the rest from either googling or following links. The general rule from the Official Prompt List is 'pen and ink, one drawing a day', but I am certainly not holding anybody to that if they don't feel like they can do it. I also bravely ignore the 'pen and ink' rule, but I don't necessarily suggest my slapdash 'pick something from a list and go after it with whatever media amuses me' method, either...

INKTOBER Last year quite a few of us had a some fun doing this Inktober event. The idea is to draw something each day, inspired by a list of words; there is a word for each day. — @Pingo This was The thread from Last Year: https://forum.reapermini.com/index.php?/topic/88233-inktoberdrawlloween/ There are official rules. We broke most of them. There is more than one person making lists (apart from the guy that started it 11 years back), the lists have different themes…. Last year anything that could leave a mark on paper counted as Ink, some people found ways to combine words from multiple lists, it was fair game to jump from one list to another and back, some only ever posted their pieces here but not on fb, twitler, instychat, (or any of the popular social media pages), skipping days was a thing, gradually catching up was a thing, using two prompt words in one drawing to count-as-2-days was a thing… THE ONLY REAL RULE WAS TO HAVE SOME FUN WITH IT I have stumbled on three other lists in addition to the original Inktober2020 list. Images of them all follow. I will cheerfully add some others if someone suggests any. InktoberLite2020: One possibility if One-A-Day just seems too much, too fast, is to do one every 48 hours. We have here four lists, that yields 2 words per list for a total of 8 word choices, from 2 days. Pick one word (out of 8) for a drawing to be completed sometime on Oct 1st or 2nd. Rinse repeat for 3rd-4th, 5th-6th, and so on. NB: Rolling 5D6 will mostly result in a lot of Owlbears and Beholders and Bulettes...no idea how you’d roll choices 1-5 (blame whoever did the graphic #totalartmajor #notagamer). The Official ^ Original Rules and Prompt Words Added per Guindy’s suggestion.
