A special THANKS! to Emily Kirsch for rediscovering the lost Proj#2!

Topic/Focus:  The focus of this edition was just what the title suggests.  There was a “no duplication of deity” rule for Proj#2.  Those who wanted to participate, were first required to choose and announce a god or goddess (of any mythos) that had not been previously “taken” by anyone else (first come, first served).  Participants were cautioned, "Do not 'reserve' a deity if you aren’t going to follow through and submit something."  Failure to participate is precisely why such heavy hitters like Mars, Isis, and Thor are absent from this edition.  As this edition was initially proposed, only stories and poems were allowed. However, that restriction was lifted during Project 7.5 "Literary Stew", when the first seven editions were temporarily reopened for new submissions.
