Hello everyone! Hope your Halloween was wonderful. I am not sure I should do this as participation has been low in all the fest this year; but I opened a 2018 Holiday fest if you'd life to write a holiday story and add it.
Holiday Fic Fest. Write whatever you want as long as it includes a holiday/winter theme. Don't forget to add it into the Holiday tag.
Welcome Autumn time! As the start of autumn the summer fest is now over! Yay?
With that, I am going to open a Halloween Fest. I propose you pick a challenges from the challenges and make it 'Halloween-y'; or just please please write write write.

Happy Summer everyone,
So July 1st I plan to post the fic fest challenge. In order to do this it would be helpful if we had word or phrases anyone would like to see in a fest. So come on in and drop your best in the comments! ;)
Hello!
I was wondering if anyone had any ideas they'd like to see happen? A new fic fest? What find? Another type of challenege?
Hope you are all doing well.
Helloooooooooo Everyone! Let's make some noise! (Did I wake you up?)
Halloween is now behind us, yes, it's very sad, it's now onto the Winter season.
This year I'm proposing if you choose to accept: write a story that involves snow and where Harry or Snape (or both) have to try a 'new' food from the other that they haven't ate before.
