that march 1st deadline seemed so reasonable
that was then
FEMININOMENON !!!
HEY! HI! things are rough out here right now, and i think in times of unrest like this, when we're not quite sure what the next day will hold or where our place in the wider world is, community is more important than ever. and i think we're all in agreement when i say fandom can be such a lovely resting spot from all of it so, hey. hi. you have a place here!
this fest is dedicated to female and genderqueer stories, art and edits, aiming to represent those who are feeling unsteady right now, and give us all a bit of space to breathe, be seen, and simply Be.
THE BASICS:
Signups are open here from today (November 11th) until December 13th.
Fanfictions, edits, and fanart are all accepted as submissions
Two servers: 18+ and 16-17 will be placed in separate servers (nothing else is different! just keeping it as safe and comfy as possible <3)
Fics: told from pov of female/gq character(s)
Any era/pairings/au allowed (or no pairings! you pretty much have free reign!)
No minimum of maximum WC for fics: oneshots or first chapter of a multi-chapter fic.
You can do as many submission across as many of the three categories as you want.
EXEMPTIONS: non-con and family pairings are excluded from this fest.
DEADLINE: working deadline of March 1st for submissions - flexible! (taking into account holidays, Jan 20th and all the emotions surrounding that <3)
HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE !!!

hey guys can you develop more complex nuanced loving views of yourselves. thanks.
not enough women stabbing each other to symbolize sex in the media actually
Black water rushing through me.
🪩 Posting Day Four 🪩
Another load of female and genderqueer centric works have just dropped!
You can find fics and art in our AO3 collection here
Art can also be found with #HPFemFest2025 art on this page, where we are reblogging everything <3
We will be sharing a masterlist of edits at the end of the fest, but for now edits can be found in the TikTok collection here
Only one more day to go after this! We hope you're loving everything that's been released so far 💞
People have written a lot of touchy-feely pieces on this subject but I thought I’d get right to the heart of the matter

sex is fine but have you ever thought about all the ways you’d rewrite a flawed piece of media that shaped your life and holds a special place in your heart despite its unfulfilled potential
