It's Oct. 1st and posting for Sirius Black Fest 2013 will start at 2pm EST today, but before we get underway, Kreacher has something he'd like to share with you.

A reminder )
What Kreacher was trying (very unsuccessfully) to say is:


  • Please review and comment. All of the participants took time out of their schedules to contribute to the fest and give you lots of goodies to look at and read, let them know that you appreciate their efforts. Whether it's a comment that rivals a short fic in word count or a simple back pat, comments give everyone a happy!

  • Please keep any constructive criticism to PMs to the artist or writer once the reveals have gone up. Concrit can be fantastic but an anonymous fest isn't really the place for it since the creator is unable to respond to it right away.

  • Please remember that this is an anonymous fest, so please do not repost your work until after reveals have gone up. This will take place a week after the fest concludes at which time you're free to repost where ever you'd like.

  • Please share your recs with us, we'd love to see them!

  • Remember entries will also be posted to Dream Width and Live Journal.

  • Most importantly, enjoy the next few weeks which will be chockablock with Siriusly wonderful art and fic!

FYI

Just an FYI, we will be turning on moderated posting tomorrow due to the fest; so if you had a story or a picture you were itching to post, you may want to do so before 12am EST.

We will turn off moderated posting once the last fest piece has been posted. Thanks and we apologize for any inconvenience.

Posting Begins 10/1!

Pimp us!







The deadline for submissions has come and gone and we are happy to report that all but five people have either submitted their work or have extensions with us. What this means is, we have a incredibly varied fest in the works with art and stories from some of the best creators in fandom. (Many of whom were kind enough enough to ensure I got a good bit of the other, thanks ever so!-S.B.) Posting starts one week from today at 2pm EST.  Hope to see you there!

Current Mood: excited
Deadline!

It's September 23rd, the day that submissions are due for those  of you who did not ask for an extension. While we've heard from most of you either on the comm. or via e-mail there are still a few of you who have not checked in with us. If we don't hear from you by 12am PST we are going to assume you have dropped out without notification.

 For those of you who submitted your work you should have gotten a confirmation e-mail from us, so if you did submit but did not hear from us it means the submission didn't reach us and you may need to resend it.



For those of you who have already submitted or requested an extension, thanks! We have had some wonderful submissions given to us and we're looking forward to sharing them with you!

Current Mood: anxious
Three Days Until Deadline

It's three days until the submission deadline of Monday the 23rd and while we have heard from most of you there are still a few of you who we haven't. If you haven't gotten in touch with us yes, when you get a chance please let us know where you stand with your submission. Thanks!



Having said that, we have already gotten in some fantastic art and fic that we can't wait to show you!

In the Home Stretch!

Ten days until the submission date of September 23, so if you need an extension or have any other concerns now would be the time to contact us!



We're looking forward to seeing what you've come up with!

Call for Betas!



With a little less than two months to go before our September 23rd fest deadline, we hope everyone is plugging away at their fics and art and getting close to the point of sending off their submissions to a beta.

With that in mind we're putting out a call for betas for those writers and artists who may be in need of one. So, if you're willing to handle beta duties for one of our fest participants please comment below. Please note if you're available to beta fic or art, and what sorts of stories/art you absolutely will not read (after all we wouldn't expect someone to beta what to them is a squick-fic.) or look at, and how you can be contacted (PM or e-mail, if e-mail please leave your addy.)

Alternately, writers can look to [info]hp_betas or hp_betas_wanted if they are unable to find a beta here.

Thanks in advance for any help!

And as always, there is still time to sign up if you want to join us!

Days 6 & 7 Prompt Round Up

 Here's the prompts for days 6 & 7. We're taking prompts until 6/28 so if you'd like to leave one, please visit the prompting post. Thanks for all the great contributions we've gotten so far!

Prompting Continues, Spread the Word!

Days 4 & 5 Prompt Round Up and a Question.

 As expected, prompting has slowed down a bit in days 4 & 5. However, that being said, we still got in a nice sized batch of interesting prompts in the last couple of days. There's still time to add to the list, so if you have any Sirius-centric plot bunnies gnawing at your brain, go visit the prompt post and set 'em free.

 Now on to other business. As I've said before, this is my first time at the rodeo with all the learning curve that implies and we may have made the prompting period a bit longer than it needs to be. To that end, the mods are thinking of shortening the prompting period and instead of closing prompting on 6/28, closing it one week earlier on 6/21.

This would mean claiming would happen sooner as well; we're thinking 6/24. Submission due dates and posting would remain the same; the only dates that would shift forward would be the prompting and claiming dates.

 What do you all think? Would you prefer the dates to stay as originally posted or should we close it early? Thanks in advance for any input!
