2009 [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] sign-ups open

[havocthecat]

[Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] is an exchange-based ficathon celebrating female characters in the media today. Het, gen, and femslash are all available options (with boyslash available as a background pairing only, due to the nature of the challenge), and there are 32 official fandoms, with the option for a wildcard entry.

Read through the rules, the list of available fandoms, and sign up here. Last year's ficathon got over 60 stories, and we'd like to equal (or preferably surpass) that this year.

Fics must be 1000 words minimum, and stories aren't due until May 1st.

Picspam: Romana II (Dr. Who)

[harriet-spy.livejournal.com]

Romana II was the companion that I always wanted to be when I was growing up. At the time, I focused more on her being a Timelord in her own right--witty, cultivated, brilliant, and just a bit of a snob--and less on her fabulous clothes. Now I appreciate them both!

Multi-Fandom Recs

[fallingtowers.livejournal.com]

I'm bringing recs focusing on some of my favourite female characters (mostly femgen, with a dash of het and femslash) from various fandoms. All of these stories were written since the last halfamoon fangirling fest. Maybe you know most of them already; but maybe there's also one or two you missed out on. Many of these fics were taken from this year's femgenficathon and the first LJ galpalficathon, which you should check out too!

( Recs for BSG, Doctor Who, Farscape, Gosford Park, HP, Indiana Jones, LOTR, The Matrix, Narnia, Shakespeare, T:TSCC, Vorkosigan Saga & XF under the Cut )
