To anyone interested - I'm feeling out a Pride event for June. This would be much more free-for-all than Lemony Shenanigans - people would be welcome to post as much or as little as they like, no specified posting dates, just as long as they follow a few content requirements they can be added to a collection on AO3 and promoted in a dedicated server and potentially on tumblr.

At this stage I'm looking for anyone who would be interested in brainstorming prompt ideas, weekly themes, and helping to promote the event server on and off discord. If this is you, please add me on discord - my username is picimadar. I'm not terrifically active on tumblr, but I'll keep an eye on this post 💛

FAQs

Are there any content restrictions or content rules?

- No! We expect that all works are appropriately tagged, content warned, or whatever the mods and creators deem is appropriate for audience awareness.

- This event is inclusive of all identities. Including exclusionary language, ideas, themes or plots in a work will lead to it being removed from association with this event. When in doubt, please ask the Mods.

I don't know if I'll be able to post for Week (X) during that week. Can I post later?

- Absolutely! Posting for a past week is always allowed, and we will include a grace period for July 1-7th for any 'catch up' entries to be added to the A03 collection. Please do not post for a future week 'in advance'.

I'm not sure if my work fits the theme of the week.

- Ask away! Our moderators will field any questions about themes and prompts. When in doubt, reach out!

Does my creation for this event have to be specifically for this event?

- No! Your work should be new - whether it is a new chapter of an existing work, a redux of a past work, or an entirely new creation. It can be cross-posted to other events during June or in the future.
