Hello, I'm new to the destiel fandom and with the show wrapping up soon, I'm trying to read as many fics as I can. I found your tumblr but I was wondering if you knew other good tumblrs I can look at to connect with writers and see new work as they publish. I love your tumblr, tia!
We are so glad you found us and like our tumblr! We aim to promote as many fics as we can, from writers new to experienced. Anyone who uses the hashtag #deancasfanficnet will be reblogged on our tumblr. So, our tumblr is filled with several fics, each with many different genres, tropes and settings. We keep this updated on our tags list if you would like to check it out.
However, we also know plenty more places where you can find DeanCas fics! I hope you are prepared to do some reading! *cracks knuckles*
First challenges and fests are a great way to read old fics and find new fics! There are a range of DeanCas challenges out there and each one has an amazing group of writers who each bring something amazing to the table. On our tumblr, we have a Fest 2020 calendar which showcases the current timelines for a few fests! There are also some fests which have not begun yet which we will mention here:
@bottomcasbigbang - Posting in April!
@casdeanflipfest - Follow their tumblr to receive updates on when sign-ups open!
@deancasbigbang - Follow their tumblr to receive updates on when sign-ups open!
@deancasminibang - Follow their tumblr to receive updates on when sign-ups open!
@deancaspinefest - Posting in April!
@deancasreversebang - Posting in March!
@destielharlequinchallenge - Winter Cheesefest currently posting now! Sign ups for the mega bang open next month!
@destielomegaversebigbang - Begins posting Mid-May!
@spn-mediabigbang - While a Supernatural Fest, you will find DeanCas fics amongst them! Posting begins in mid-April!
Collections are also another great way to find DeanCas fics! While there are many, two we know of currently are:
@destieltropecollection - Currently accepting applications for fics. Collection begins posting in May!
The Destiel Fan Survey Favs by @unforth - a whole collection of fics on Ao3 for your pleasure! All voted on by our fellow DeanCas readers!
Servers and are another great place to join in and find fics from writers. If you follow the @writersofdestiel tumblr, they frequently reblog the new fics of their writers onto there. To join the server you need to have published at least one destiel fic in the past (to prevent trolls from entering!). If you just want to read, please follow their tumblr!
@profoundnet is a great server with an abundance of writers and artists. If you are 18+, you are welcome to join! There you will be able to see fics be posted on the regular from some great authors! Plus hopefully you will also make some friends!
Let’s also not fail to mention @destielfanfic! Another great source for DeanCas fics!
Finally, there are two DeanCas projects that know of being published this year. The @profoundzine is a Destiel Fanzine produced by the team at @profoundnet. While pre-orders are finished and the final touches are being made, there will most likely be extra copies eventually and if not, there is always the next edition! Follow their tumblr to keep an eye out on that.
And then there is the @tohellandbackanthology. This is a DeanCas Anthology set to be shipped later this year. Writers and artists have already been chosen and are hard at work. Follow their tumblr to get updates so that you can get your hands on a copy!
If anyone else knows anywhere else that promotes or publishes new DeanCas works, don’t hesitate to let us know!
