We've already received a number of amazing creations and we're looking forward to even more wonderful Snarry! You can find our FAQ post here. If you have any other questions or concerns or if there is something you need, don't hesitate to contact us.

The short version - Snarry-a-thon15 entries are due in 3 weeks!

( The possibly more amusing version below the cut )

Snarry-a-Thon15 entries are due April 1 - and we aren't joking. ;D Please send all entries to spfestmod AT gmail DOT com. You can find all submission guidelines here.

Apologies for the lateness of the 2015 Fest Schedule! Better late than never. :D

This year, we hope to have a fest that will meet everyone's Snarry needs. We will be hosting three fests at snape_potter: Snarry-a-Thon15, Odd Jobs Career Change fest, Secret Snarry Swap and one challenge.

For those who like to work from anything goes prompts, there is Snarry-a-Thon15, for those who like to warm up with Snarry during the busy end of the year holidays, there is Secret Snarry Swap, and for those who like to pick up spur-of the moment challenges, there will be our annual summer challenge in July before we slide into Fall and our revolving themed fest, The Odd Jobs Career Change fest.

The first fest of the year will be the 7th annual Snarry-a-Thon. Prompt-based and anything goes, our signature fest begins posting April 20th.

The summer months are always a bit slow and we want to perk things up a bit with a challenge. Details will be announced closer to the date, but you can be sure Severus and Harry will be involved somehow. *g*

Since our Autumn fest has a revolving theme, this year the theme for the Autumn fest will be Odd Jobs Career Change fest. Tired of Harry as an Auror? Wonder how Severus would fare as a traveling salesman? This fest gives you the opportunity to break the boys out of their traditional careers and try something new. If you can imagine it, we want to read (or view) it!

Our final fest will be Secret Snarry Swap with details to come closer to sign-ups.

"The Road Not Taken" Fest is an anonymous, one-shot, AU/AR theme-based fic and art fest hosted at snape_potter on LJ, IJ, and DW. Take any point in canon and deviate from that or use an entirely different setting or time period for our favorite boys entirely. If you can imagine it, we want to read (or view) it! Entries can be set in a different country, be non-magical, include de-aging, time travel, creature!fic, fusions (Severus as Sherlock Holmes, Harry as Watson), or a particular event from canon can be changed: Harry is not the Chosen One, Severus was never a Death Eater, etc.

Sign-ups begin Monday, June 16!

Whether you're having a barbecue, sitting poolside, or slaving away in your office today, we wanted to take a moment to mention that we have two different events planned at snape_potter over the summer.

Our autumn fest, The Road Not Taken, will focus on any manner of AU/AR creations with sign-ups in mid-June, entries due in mid-August, and posting beginning on Sept 15. The Snarry Summer Challenge is a self-posting, mini-fest that will be held during the month of July closing out on the 31st, Harry's birthday.

Details for both of these (as well as fantastic banners!) will be coming in the next week or two so you can plan your summer holidays accordingly. ;)

We hope you'll join us!

Because she wouldn't thank me for clogging up the Master List, I am posting separately because I feel I must mention that accioslash is in the hospital. Her husband, Al, just created his own LJ, bigal113, to update us on her condition.

If you'd like to leave her well wishes, there is a community, littleaccio, for this purpose. Any Snarry thoughts and prayers would be most welcome. Thank you. ~torino10154

This year, we hope to have a fest that will meet everyone's Snarry needs. We will be hosting three fests at snape_potter: Snarry-a-Thon14, The Road Not Taken AR/AU fest, Secret Snarry Swap and one challenge.

For those who like to work from prompts with no limitations on length, there is Snarry-a-Thon14, for those who like an Exchange fest or bite-sized entries during the busy end of the year holidays, there is Secret Snarry Swap, and for those who like to pick up spur-of the moment challenges, there will be our annual summer challenge in July before we slide into Fall and our revolving themed fest, The Road Not Taken AR/AU fest.

The first fest of the new year will be the 6th annual Snarry-a-Thon. Prompt-based and anything goes, our signature fest begins posting April 14th.

The summer months are always a bit slow and we want to perk things up a bit with a challenge. Details will be announced closer to the date, but you can be sure Severus and Harry will be involved somehow. *g*

Since our Autumn fest has a revolving theme, this year the theme for the Autumn fest will be The Road Not Taken AR/AU fest. Magical, non-magical, take any point in canon (including the epilogue!) and deviate from that or use an entirely different setting or time period for our favorite boys entirely. If you can imagine it, we want to read (or view) it!

Our final fest will be Secret Snarry Swap with a participant poll and details to come closer to sign-ups.

Don't hold back. All kinds of prompts are welcome - happy prompts, dark prompts, silly prompts, kinky prompts, fluffy prompts, romantic prompts, prompts set in the past, present, or future, prompts from any universe, both unique ideas and beloved cliches....We welcome any flavour of Snarry. Let your fantasies run wild! Since this is not an exchange, anyone over 18 may submit a prompt without obligation (though it's nice to return the favor if you can).

Each person may leave up to 3 prompts. All comments to the post will be screened and prompting will end Sunday, October 13 at 11:59 PM EDT. As with all prompt fests, there is no guarantee your prompt will be claimed. However we will make every effort to ensure that all claimed prompts are filled.

You can find a detailed description of how the fest works - timelines, rules, and FAQs at snape_potter on LJ, IJ, or DW. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask here or email us at spfestmod [at] gmail [dot] com.
