updates, PSAs, and a new HP fic

[pauraque_bk]

Ugh, my computer. Long story short, taking it to a local repair place did not go well. I'm in the process of ordering new stuff online. Still using hannelore's computer for now, so I haven't been keeping up with LJ/DW like I usually do, but fandom marches on:

Nominations are open for rarewomen, a multifandom fic exchange focusing on female characters in small fandoms, and rare female characters in large fandoms. This was new last year, and I had a blast writing in it, as well as receiving an amazing gift in a nonexistent fandom-of-my-heart, so I'm very excited it's running again!

Sign-ups are open for hp_beholder, a fic and art exchange focusing on the HP characters who get less love because they're not considered conventionally attractive. Such a great range of amazing stuff always gets written and drawn for this.

Also, posting for hp_kinkfest has started, and my first entry for it is up:

     The Secret Incantation (NC-17, Hermione/Sirius)
     Content notes: Underage sexual activity, age difference (15/mid-30s),
     dominance/submission play including body worship and orgasm denial.

I wrote this to the very first prompt on the list (Hermione/Sirius femdom), and as soon as I saw it I knew it was the prompt for me. :D I love to play with different kinds of power dynamics, and I've only rarely written Hermione as a main character, so I had a lot of fun writing this. You can also read it on AO3 if you prefer.

So what are you guys all up to lately?

Totally understandable, I know RL has been kicking your butt lately. Sometimes when I know I don't have the time or brainspace to do a fest, I just copy down the prompts I like and save them for later, it helps me not feel like I'm missing out. :)

Yeah, I'm thinking if no one's picked it by the end of the fest, I may write it later (I know the prompter and I'm sure she'd be happy to get a story outside the fest, too.) Or maybe I'll be struck by wild inspiration and the story will write itself in a couple of days and I can claim the prompt after I've written it. :) (Not very likely, but it's happened to me once or twice!)
