Here's a heads-up: the fest will be running again this year, though, due to recent LJ drama, the actual fic and art will probably be posted to InsaneJournal and GreatestJournal. If the decision is made to use these alternate sites, all admin posts will be posted here, including sign-ups, and the headers to the fics will be posted here, with links to the fics on the other site(s). (This is so that participants and watchers need not create journals on these other sites if they want to -- they can comment to the header post with their impressions! I do ask, though, that the content of these comments is kept within the new LJ standards. Know that I will screen any comments that might result in TOSing as soon as they come to my attention, at least temporarily.) Alternately, I might just post R and NC-17-rated stories elsewhere. I would love to hear feedback on this before I make any permanent decisions.
If you have any concerns at all, please feel free to email me (fem.exchange @ gmail.com) or comment on this entry. I will address any issues you might have, and try to work something out that is satisfactory for everyone. ♥
All participants are required to be of legal age in their country/state of residence.
