Last Call!
May is drawing to a close, which means time is running out for submitting theme list suggestions and Retro Fest prompts!
I've only had one response to this month's theme list search (threesome: Severus/Remus/Harry), so if you know of any stories or have written any stories featuring that threesome, you need to drop me a link ASAP or it's going to be a sparse list. The search post can be found at IJ, LJ, and DW.
RETRO FEST:
First, some more clarification: The Retro Fest does NOT mean going back to the 1950s/1960s. "Retro" in this context means going back in HP canon, picking a point pre-DH, and expanding on or changing canon from that point onward. For more detailed information, see this post.
Second, lore and I talked about it and decided that since the response had been underwhelming, we'd change the one prompt limitation in order to generate a decent list of story and art prompts for potential participants. So! If you've got more than one prompt you'd like to submit, you may submit as many as you like here at LJ, IJ, or DW.
If you're having trouble remembering in which book we learned a certain bit of information about a character, the Harry Potter Wiki might help.
If you're having trouble generating prompts, my suggestion would be to think of your favorite canon era and think about what we knew at that point and maybe how you want to change things. You could also think about fandom cliches or theories that used to be popular, such as Remus being killed/injured by Pettigrew's silver hand or Severus being a pureblood who hung around with Lucius and lived in Snape Manor.
You could also browse mctabby's Time Capsule posts, which held a lot of canon speculation that might provide inspiration for the Retro Fest: 2005, 2007, and 2008.
