Wankfest 2011 Farewell Address... and Goodies for All!
Well, with this final post, HP Wankfest 2011 is all over. The mess is mopped up, the lotion and towels are put away, the various characters are having a smoke or a nap, and poor Snape has been sent back to his dungeons with a special salve to treat the chaffing. We're sad to see it end, but also ridiculously proud of the fantastic collection of fic and art that came together here this time around.

Truly, you all demonstrated some unbelievable creativity and surprised us over and over again with your inventive uses for the prompts and brilliant pieces that were far beyond your everyday wankfic or art. To date, the fest generated more than 800 comments on its 48 pieces, and 23 fics and arts -- nearly half the fest! -- found their way into the Daily Snitch.

Our huge, huge thanks to all the amazing authors and artist who clearly brought their A-game for this celebration, and to everyone who read, viewed, commented, recced, and squeed along. You made the return of Wankfest a smashing success and a whole hell of a lot of fun.

As a special thank you to our participants, there are some final goodies below the cut. Those of you who were around back in 2008 will get a particular kick out of what's down here. ;)

Thanks again, and happy wanking!!
