Science prompts
I'd like to pick your collective brains on something I've been contemplating. One of the things I personally have enjoyed about writing for the Doctor Who fandom is the ability to take some real science and twist it into a story. I've been keeping track of science-related prompts for several months. The prompts take a variety of forms -- a Wikipedia article I stumble across, a real-time news article, a photo from APOD, top ten lists from LiveScience, etc.
What has stumped me is what to actually do with them. Where do I post them? I could share in my own journal, but the audience seems somewhat limited and I'd love to get them out to a wider audience. One of the Doctor/Rose shipper communities? While I tend to write that pairing, I don't want to limit the creativity of the people I might share the prompts with. I'd want to make sure that I have the all-clear from the mods of whatever comm I post them to, as not to overlap with any other prompts or step on anyone's toes. I also don't want to annoy anyone by spamming several comms with the same group of prompts.
What it boils down to is that I'm not sure where to start, so I just haven't started at all.
I'd love your ideas on what to do here. If you are a mod for a comm and would be interested in having me share the prompts there, let me know!
ETA: There's also the (humbling) possibility that I will share them and ... nothing. Is anyone interested in actually writing based on the prompts?
