Oh, that is an intriguing idea. I can't promise I'd write something for it (although I would like to), but I would definitely buy it.
Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

Because books.
I don't think we'd need a theme. It could just be a collection of short fiction. Or, like, "original writing under fifteen thousand words" or something.

I also think it could take us a long time to consense on a theme. And if we did want to use one, it should be extremely broad -- like, "Buffistas Explore Darkness" not vampire stories, or even stories about goats, or what have you.

Oh, I think I'd have no problems turning in something under fifteen thousand. Heh. I'll get back to you when I break five thousand.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
What, you think we can't all come up with fifteen thousand words about goats?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Yes! That's why I said "original writing," with you in mind!
And a broad theme (like ... I don't know, people, or darkness, or blue, or whatever) would work for anything.
