hi! I'm trying to add a fic into the ao3 collection but it's not even showing up when I type in the name. am I overlooking something?

Hi! Unfortunately, that's a difficulty other participants have faced as well. It appears that the collection will not pop up on ao3 as an option for a fic draft, but if you type in the collection name manually, it should be added, though it might take a few minutes. alternatively, if the fic has already been posted, you can do the same thing with the adding collections option at the bottom of the ao3 page for the fic. please let us know if that does not work either, and we'll see what can be done to fix it.

Mergwenthur Week 2022

November 13 - November 19, 2022

Mergwenthur Week 2022 is a week-long event dedicated celebrating the ship of Merlin, Gwen, and Arthur, consisting of a seven-day long prompt challenge. Each day has a word, trope, and color prompt assigned to it to reflect an aspect of Mergwenthur alongside an episode from the show.

All creators are welcome to participate. Content is open to fic, art, edits, gifs, manips, meta, poetry, podfic, and whatever else you can creatively come up with during these seven days.

You do not need to do something for each day. Participate as much or as little as you want.

You may tag #mergwenthurweek2022 and your content will be reblogged to our main Tumblr, mergwenthurweek.tumblr.com and our Twitter, Mergwenthurweek. If you are submitting to AO3, feel free to add your creations to the MergwenthurWeek2022 collection.

Please read the FAQ before sending an ask if you have questions.

HOW DO PROMPTS WORK?

The themes of each day are inspired by Mergwenthur. You can use the word prompts, trope prompts, or color prompts for whatever you make, or even write fix-it fics or make fanart related to the chosen episode.

The prompts are meant to inspire you, not box your creative muse in. You can interpret the prompts as literally or loosely as you want.

RULES

You may combine this fest with other ongoing challenges (ie: Merlin Bingo, Kinkalot, MerthurWeek, Tropemas, etc).

Each prompt days opens midnight in your time zone. However, there won’t be a deadline for when you post a prompt if it’s from an earlier day, and you have until the 13 of November to post. There will also be an amnesty week until the 26 for anyone who couldn’t post their fills in time. We understand it’s a hectic season for most of us. The event will officially end (and the AO3 collection will close) on November 26, 2022.

The last rule is to have fun. Please do not stress if you aren’t inspired for every prompt, and have fun creating!
