I was thinking about the way fandom is tracking the other day and it occurred to me that if we want to keep this ship thriving, it might be a good idea to make our pairing visible again in the wider HP fandom. Never fear, we will still continue here as we have been, with new ideas and projects and challenges, but it couldn't hurt to inform you of further opportunities to introduce people to or remind them of the potential of Remus and Severus as a couple. This is also not to say that if you see an event posted here, you must create Snupin for it if you're interested in participating -- there was probably no need to say that, but I felt I had to, just in case. ~_^
Severus' Big Bang! There is a BB just getting started that's meant to celebrate Snape's 50th Birthday next year (If anyone hears of a similar BB for Remus underway, let me know!). What's different about this BB is that there are different levels of participation, including options for drabbles and very short fic or unpolished art. Sign-ups don't even start until June 1, so you'll be hearing more about this BB as time goes on, but here's a link to the fest so you can start considering your options!
The Lusty Month is Just Around the Kinky Corner! Five times, pervy_werewolf hosted the Lusty Month of May daily posting marathon, and on this sixth year, there's a new twist in the game to help open it up to more Pervy Werewolf Fanciers. Tiers have been set up for writers, allowing for daily posting of a minimum word count, daily posting of a drabble or monthly posting of a longer work. More details can be found here. PW is a community dedicated to the kinky side of Remus Lupin, and each year, the Lusty Month of Mary marathon has been a treasure trove of fabulous, creative smut, always involving Remus Lupin (and sometimes Severus; just remember, any pairing goes as long as Remus is around or in it).
Fic Exchange - Sign-ups end Today! The 'Five Things' Harry Potter Fic Exchange Pretty much what it sounds like - an exchange of "Five Things" fics (very sorry artists, I don't like it either). 1000-word minimum (works out to five 200-word drabbles, if you think about it). Sign-ups end late today (Friday, April 24), fics due May 30. If only I had seen this sooner, right? Still, if you see this in time to jump in, do! We might get each other. Had to put my money where my mouth is. ~_^ Closed now, but you can watch the user's journal for the exchange, which starts after May 30!
Oh yeah, Lupin_Snape Is Busy, Too Snupin: Bigger, Longer and Uncut (our version of a Big Bang), Chocolate & Asphodel 2, and the monthly challenge, Fools, are all discussed and linked in this mod post. It's not too late for creators to try their hands at any one of these!
So, get out there and circulate, Lupin/Snape fans! Just be sure to remember that you'll always have a home to come back to, here at lupin_snape. ^_^
