11:23 pm - HP: Femmeslash Fanathon

There’s certainly no lack of fan work in the Harry Potter fandom. Slash, het (or both), gen, it’s all available in rather massive quantities, with the exception – like in so many fandoms – of femmeslash. I won’t say there’s nary a piece out there (that’s of course simply not true), but the fact of the matter is that there’s not enough. The amount of femmeslash pales in comparison to the piles of ‘regular’ slash, het and gen, wouldn’t you say?

The dearth of femmeslash must be remedied, my friends, my fellow girlslashers, because there’s simply not enough of it out there. The [info]sapphic_hp Femmeslash Fanathon has been created for that very purpose – to give the Harry Potter fandom its well-deserved share of femmeslash. Hopefully, both writers and artists will find themselves interested and sign up!

Signups are conducted at the community: join the community and leave a post in the format specified here. The signup opens October 13 and closes November 13, so you have a month to sign up. Questions can be directed to the FAQ, and I’d like to ask if there are designers interested in helping us out to check this post out.

09:19 pm - Moving On Challenge

Click on the button to sign up:



The Moving On Challenge

In 1,000 words or more explore the ending of one relationship, obsession, flirtation or crush and the beginning of another. Why didn't it work? Where did it go wrong? What made the difference with the new lover/crush/flirtation?

There is a catch.

Here's how it works:
You pick the character moving on and the character he/she settles with in the end, but the old love/crush is the organizer's choice. Keep in mind that it can be any character from the Angel/Buffy verse, although plausibility/character interaction will be taken into consideration.

10:24 pm - Smallville Swing Challenge



The Smallville Swing Challenge Archive is now up.

The basic idea of the challenge is simple. You pick one character (any fandom) for half your pairing, I provide you with two randomly picked Smallville characters for you to chose from for the other half of your pairing, and you write a story or make art based on that pair. Slash, het or gen are all welcome. Stories should be over 1000 words (roughly) and art includes manips, collages, wallpaper.... basically any digital art other than icons.

The closing date to sign up is Saturday 12th June 2004, I will be assigning pairings on Sunday 13th June 2004 and stories and art will be due on Saturday 14th August 2004.
