Trim the tree and hang some mistletoe, my friends. It’s time for the Dramione RomCom Fest: Christmas Edition!
FEST RULES
No prompt list this time, my loves. There are a million and one Christmas romcoms, and who am I to limit your options? The only requirement for the movie you select is that it be a romcom set at Christmas. Go with a classic like White Christmas or Love Actually, or one of this year’s Hallmark lineup, or some obscure made-for-tv flick you recorded one Christmas and now watch every year. Just pick one you love and let the merriment begin!
Not sure if your choice fits that description? Contact me and I’ll be happy to discuss with you.
Here are few lists to help if you don’t have a film in mind
45 Most Romantic Christmas Movies, Including the Best Holiday Rom-Coms
33 Best Romantic Christmas Movies That Will Give You All the Feels This Holiday
The 40 Best Hallmark Christmas Movies of All Time
Posting deadline is January 15 midnight CDT.
Stories and artwork must be posted to the AO3 fest collection before the deadline. I ask that you please wait to post to other platforms until after the fest has gone live.

Be sure to include your chosen movie in the author’s notes!
The fest will go live January 16 noon CDT
I will promote each story and art piece on Tumblr, one or two per day depending on the number of entries
As always, this fest is open to both authors and artists!
AUTHORS: 1000 word minimum, no max, written for the fest
I understand that stories sometimes run away with us, so you are welcome to post a WIP as long as it meets the 1000 word minimum. You can then update on your own schedule.
ARTISTS: At least one piece of original artwork.
This can be hand-drawn, digital art, or photo manipulation. You are not limited to the number of pieces you create for your prompt.
If you are both an author AND an artist, you are welcome to post artwork to go along with your story. Again, you will only be allowed one prompt.
Any rating welcome, but please tag appropriately for any TW. No non-con or pedophilia permitted.
This is a Dramione fest, so while you are welcome to have other characters and pairings, the main pairing must be Draco and Hermione. Triads and multis (Dramione + another character/s) are welcome.
Let your imagination run wild! This does not have to be a direct retelling. Feel free to focus on your favorite scene, make it an au, swap the main pairing’s roles, set it at Hogwarts. Have fun with it!
I’m so excited to host this fest again with a holiday twist and can’t wait to see all the amazing stories and artwork!
