Welcome to the hd_familyfest

thumb

The H/D Family Fest is a prompt based fest for the pairing of Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy. The purpose of the fest is to create fic and art celebrating the idea of Harry and Draco as a couple and as parents. The fanworks can be about established relationships, they can include mpreg or they could be epilogue compliant fics where Harry and Draco get together long after they've become fathers.

They could feature the next-gen kids or they could just be about Harry and Draco raising Teddy together. They do not necessarily have to be together at the beginning of the story, but they do have to be a couple by the end of it. The stories can be fluffy or angsty, but they need to have happy endings. It is not absolutely necessary that all the stories have to feature kids. Stories about Harry and Draco learning to be a couple and learning to live together would also be fine.


Schedule
Prompting begins: 2nd November 2013
Claiming begins: 20th November 2013
Fan works due: 8th Feb, 2014
Posting begins: 3rd March, 2014

Note: All ratings are fine.

:) Brill.

Do you have permission to use art or should I look for pics that fit the hd_family theme?

Also, do you want the entire Schedule written or just pimping banner at the moment?

You can mail me the specifics at thecapitu@gmail.com if you want.

I'd love it if you could find pics to fit the hd _family there and I want the schedule written. Thanks in advance.

Total fest n00b

[identity profile] askmeagaintmrw.livejournal.com 2013-10-12 06:33 am (UTC)(link)
Hey everyone! I'm absolutely brand new to the world of fanfic fests/exchanges, but I've been wanting to participate for a long time. I'm a long-term lurker and have read great fics that came out of fests, but somehow I could never participate because I just cant figure out how it all works (also livejournal is scary). Would someone be kind enough to walk me through this? Where do you post a prompt when the prompt date opens? In this very thread, or is there some other assigned space? And how do you politely claim a prompt? Also how do people usually find betas, because I would like one? I don't have any fandom friends because I'm shy and so far I've been content to read fic from a distance, but I would really love to participate in this one, so... please help me out :)

Thank you so much for that comprehensive reply! It was really helpful. I'm definitely going to friend you :)

[identity profile] mab.livejournal.com 2013-10-12 04:36 pm (UTC)(link)
What are the fest rules? Will they be posted soon?

[identity profile] slowroad.livejournal.com 2013-10-12 04:46 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll post them tomorrow.

oh man....you may break my resolve on no more fests....

*wibbles*

[identity profile] slowroad.livejournal.com 2013-10-13 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
I keep making that resolve too and I break it all the time. No more fests, I said and then I went out and started a new one. So glad to know that you're tempted...

I have a question. Where do you stand on OC kids? Are they accepted?

Or do the stories feat children specifically have to be the next gen 4 and/or Teddy?

[identity profile] slowroad.livejournal.com 2013-10-16 02:23 pm (UTC)(link)
OC kids are fine. In fact, they'll make the fest more fun.

[identity profile] sophie-french.livejournal.com 2013-11-15 05:02 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm very interested in signing in for this, but that would be my very first fest, so I'm also a bit nervous...
Anyway, hope I won't be sleeping when claiming begins and that I'll be able to participate! :)

[identity profile] knowmefirst.livejournal.com 2013-11-21 05:08 am (UTC)(link)
I have a question, if you don't find a prompt that calls out to you, can you have 'own prompt' option. Thanks :D

[identity profile] knowmefirst.livejournal.com 2013-11-22 05:41 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I haven't checked all the prompts so I wont discard the possibility of finding one. However, I wanted to know just in case I couldn't find one :D

Thanks!
