Results are in: we WILL be making a Shapetober prompt list this year!! We've been brainstorming, and should have that ready sometime before October starts, most likely within the week. :)

#JSaB #shapetober
A screenshot of the Tumblr poll, titled "Should we make a Shapetober prompt list?". Option 1, "YES!!", has 96.8% of votes. Option 2, "Nah, just stick to the zine", has 3.2% of votes. The caption on the bottom says "Final result from 62 votes".
