Happy 2026, everyone!

I've been in kind of a self-imposed exile most of this year, but I've realized that's really not been a whole lot of fun. So, while I'm not necessarily a big believer in official resolutions, I am making a committment to myself to at least try to ease back into some fandom life this year, and let myself enjoy the ride.

So, since OMWC has been pretty lax in participation and event hosting of late — not even a holiday event!🤦—it seemed only fair to start this new year off with a little something, so we're back with a few January prompts for a White Collar New Year, for any of you that are still following along.

It's pretty simple--pick a star, get a prompt, create something based on that prompt. Whether it's a fic, a piece of visual art, a random haiku—we're not picky. Just something about White Collar that uses the prompt in some way.

And yes, a good number of the prompts centered around the New Year holiday, so forgive us in advance for already making us all late to the party, but we figure the entire month is really fair game for celebrating the new calendar page.

❗Attention, creatives & video editors!❗

We at Studio Prism are creating an imaginative animated series, and would love your help to bring it to life! We promise that our engaging series will hook you in with vibrant charm and antics, but leave you with some food for thought that may leave you thinking differently about your everyday⭐

If you want to join our team of creatives in order to bring curiosity to life, click the link to learn more about our open position (right now we’re specifically searching for a video editor)!❤️

Why, yes, we are scheduling a post again, even after last month's failure, because it'll probably be late in the day on the 1st before we could think about logging on and by late in the day, things get forgotten.

But anyway, the year is dwindling down, and here we are at the penultimate flash fic prompt. Hard to believe; time sure flies by when you're mostly hiding from the world. hah. The point, though, is here's the November prompt. Make of it what you will, in a thousand words or less.

Even though we're still in the final days of #WhiteCollarNewYear (have you finished your entry yet, btw?), it's also time to start looking forward to next month and the return of one of our favorite days of the year—Mozzie Mania!

Mozzie is such a great character, and Willie Garson was an amazing guy, so we started a tradition of celebrating Moz on Willie's birthday each year, February 20th. The event is intended to encourage fan creations all about Mozzie, and this year's theme will be It's Mozzie's World; We're All Just Living In It. As always, the event is open to any kind of fan work, and we're always excited to see whatever you come up with. The one and only rule is that Mozzie has to be the center of whatever you create.

Hey, look at us, actually posting a prompt on the first day of the month! You know the rules: make a fic about White Collar less than a thousand words with this prompt, and have fun! (Also feel free to make any other kind of art, if you're so moved!)

If you've been around these White Collar parts for a while, then you know how much we love not only Mozzie, but the man who brought him to life. It broke (and breaks) our hearts to lose Willie, such a fantastic human taken from this world far too soon.

So, we started an annual creative event to honor Mozzie, and it's held on Willie's birthday, February 20th. So, since it's almost that time again, it's time to officially announce the 4th annual Mozzie Mania!

It's open to absolutely any type of fan creation you can imagine, and our philosophy is always the more the merrier. The only criteria is that Mozzie has to be front and center in whatever you create. Sure, he's an excellent sidekick, but just one day a year, we like to make sure he gets to have some main character energy!

There'll be an AO3 collection, of course, and we hope you'll share your work there. But also, if you're sharing in other places, please be sure to @ us and use our hashtags--#MozzieMania and #CheersToMozzie.

Lastly, we always like this event to really honor Willie and a cause he was passionate about, so we'll be making a small donation for each entry to You Gotta Believe, who has a mission to make sure that every foster child finds a forever family. And if you've got even a dollar or two to spare next month, we can't think of any way to honor Willie more than to make a donation of your own to an organization that was so near and dear to his heart.

Gosh, we've been bad lately. And this is just a quick drive-by post, but we've made ourselves a "new season resolution" to get back into the swing of things. (It's like a new year's resolution, but we don't want to wait that long, so almost summer will have to do.)

Anyway, we're sorry for being incommunicado for so long, and we're so grateful there are still folks out here looking for the flash fiction prompts. So, for the moment, here's the June prompt, but we'll be back sometime later tonight to see what sort of shenanigans we've been missing out on!
