I've been considering creating a discord server tied to this blog BUT I- and the other mods- are very busy people. I am curious if there's any interest in that and if there's anyone who would be interested in assisting in running it. DM me - @for-the-love-of-angst and let me know if you're interested in helping run a server and if you have experience!
This is an OC whump art exchange where artists can sign up via Google form found here, and will be assigned a partner at random to draw art for, similar to a Secret Santa. At the end of the event, participants post the art on their blogs with the required tags and it will be reblogged to the main event blog.
The form closes on May 1st 2026. You will receive your partner’s information on May 8th or 9th, either in your tumblr ask box, or dms. You’ll have roughly two weeks to complete the art, and you will post the art on May 22nd 2026 with all of the required tags included.
When you post your piece tag it #whump_art_exchange_2026, and tag @whump-art-exchange, as well as tagging the person you made the art for. I will reblog all of the finished pieces so that people can see everyone's creations.
This is a minor friendly exchange, do not submit sexual content for this event, even if you are an 18+ blog. If your blog is 18+ check that off in the form and I will assign you appropriately.
Sign ups are open to all skill levels, and partners are assigned at random with the exception of triggers, 18+ blogs, ect. All works must be a fully completed art piece with a clear image, and effort must be put into it. Do not submit AI art.
If you are unable to complete your gift, or need to drop out of the event let me know as soon as possible so that I can assign a new artist for your partner. If you need a time extension let me know so that I know you are still participating!
Harassment, or hostility of any kind will not be tolerated and anyone doing so may be blocked or asked to leave the event.
Inbox @whump-art-exchange or dm @mottinthemainpot if you have any additional questions.
this event will run in the month of june, with 30 prompts you can either complete or pick and choose from. any form of creating is accepted, be it writing, prompts, art, collages, whatever you fancy. original settings and fanfic settings are both accepted and encouraged. the only rule is: all whumpees must be women. (whumpers, caretakers, teammates etc. don't have to be, but if you want to..... door's open.....)
as for what counts as a woman, that is 100% up to you. trans women, awesome. masc/butch women, awesome. he/him women, awesome. amab women, awesome. if the character is a woman to you, they are a woman to me!
i lied, there are actually more rules. one important one is: please tag your fics thoroughly. especially if they're nsfw. another rule is: please don't use ai when creating. i can't check if you did, so it runs on the honour system, but i trust you guys.
2026 prompts!

GUIDELINES:
Prompts should ideally be responded to in the form of whump
Creators can make any type of media they want (Yes, this includes any kind of media, no matter how niche. As long as it’s creative, it’s allowed)
You can do as few or as many prompts as you like
You can complete these prompts in tandem with any other event or other prompts (such as in combination with Bad Things Happen Bingo, AU-gust, etc.)
DO NOT use ai. I can’t be entirely sure what is or isn’t, but I trust you to at least put some type of effort in your creations. These events are no fun otherwise!
Tag & trigger warn your content accordingly
Yes, NSFW is allowed (and this year you CAN tag me in it! Aka I’m eighteen now baybeee)
Tag your works as #augustofwhump and/or #augustofwhump2025. (No spaces please! From now on I’ll only be reblogging what I find in these specific tags for my convenience.) In addition to that, you can also tag this account — @augustofwhump. I’ll try to reblog whatever I can!

This is an OC whump art exchange. If you are an artist you can sign up by filling out a google form found below and you will be assigned a partner at random to draw a gift for based on their requests. It works the same as a secret santa event, so keeping the person you get a secret is encouraged. At the end of the event, you will post your gift art to your blog with all of the tags required (that are stated below) and it will be reblogged on the event blog.
Sign up sheet can be found here, and the form closes on May 24th 2025, (or sooner if I get more submissions than I can handle). You will receive your partner’s information in the last week of May (probably the 27th or 28th), either in your email, or ask box. You’ll have roughly two weeks to complete the art, and you will post the art on June 14th 2025 with all of the required tags included. If you haven't posted after a day I will check in with you to ask about your progress.
When you post your piece tag it under #whump_art_exchange_2025, and tag @whump-art-exchange, as well as tagging the person you made the art for. I will reblog all of the finished pieces so that people can see everyone's creations. The list of tags I use can be found here.
This is a minor friendly exchange, do not submit sexual content for this event, even if you are an 18+ blog. If your blog is 18+ please check that off in the form and I will assign you appropriately.

If you are assigned a person who doesn't work for you, dm me within the first day and I will try to sort it out for you. Please only do this if it's a high risk situation such as triggering content, or a safety issue. If you are unsure, shoot me a dm at @mottinthemainpot and I will try my best to accommodate.
If you are unable to complete your gift, or need to drop out of the event please let me know as soon as possible so that I can assign a new artist for your partner. If you need a time extension please let me know so that I know you are still participating!

Is there gonna be a Winter Whumperland challenge this year? :)
As of right now, there won't be one.
Our team tried our best to get into the spirit of it and plan accordingly but our lives have gotten extremely busy lately (being full-grown adults with jobs, bills, and kids). We would've loved to still be able to share with the community around the holidays especially with everything that is going on with U. S. Politics, but life has become a bit more difficult and a bit more scary. We are all feeling a bit burnt out.
We've loved running this blog and the Winter Whumperland Event. This community is so incredibly creative and special. There are other blogs running winter/holiday themed events as well, such as Whumpcember if that interests you.
That being said, I (mod Monti) would still love to see your works and anything you come up with. I'll be pinning the prompt lists of the last few years. If you'd like to write from those, please do so and tag the blog! I will do my best to reblog.
