August Fic Exchange 2025

Hi! I'm @newwwwusername, the admin behind @hurtcember, @marchofpain, and @newwwwprompts.

In light of the upcoming Art Fight competition, I realized that I want there to be something similar for fanfiction.

So, I am glad to announce the first official August Fic Exchange, a month-long event where fanfic enjoyers can write each other fics based on listed preferences (fandoms, ships, ratings, etc.) and get fics in return.

Important links are below.

Below I will link the Discord

While not technically a requirement, it is heavily advised to join the Discord for better communication and the option for "off-site exchanges" (fic exchanges worked out privately rather than AO3's gift exchange system)

And, here is the AO3 collection

Sign-ups for Gift Exchange should be available there, and ALL FICS FOR THIS CHALLENGE MUST BE SUBMITTED TO THAT COLLECTION, even if they are for off-site exchanges

Every 10 words = 1 point, and top users and works will be highlighted in a spotlight post at the end of the month

Outlines and brainstorming is allowed but please do not actually start writing until August 1st

Happy writing!

AO3 writers!! The admin and creator of the Hurtcember prompt challenge turns 18 years old on January 4th!!

In celebration, there is a gift event being held through an AO3 collection. There are multiple fandom-specific prompts as well as a catch-all for any fandoms you want to write for.

To participate, simply claim and fulfill one or more of the prompts before January 4th. Fics will be unrevealed until January 4th, so they can be a surprise to the admin.

This will not be an annual thing. There is no pressure to participate. The AO3 collection is linked below 👇

BONUS EVENT

So, this will not be a yearly thing, but my birthday is coming up so I figured I'd provide a little AO3 prompt meme for anyone who wanted to do that. There's a few Arcane prompt and then one catch-all prompt in case you don't care about/haven't seen Arcane, and all fics will be unrevealed until my birthday

The collection link: Hurtcember Birthday Event 2025

Genuinely no pressure to participate, it's just a fun little bonus thing for anyone who wants to do it

@handfulofwheels (and also whoever), THERE ARE NO DEADLINES. If you like the prompts list and wanna write stuff for the challenge even if the "deadline" has passed, go for it!! Creativity and writing is always encouraged, that's why I make these lists in the first place :)

Gonna be fr, nothing for next month either. Nothing for the rest of this year (aside from Hurtcember ofc). Sorry, y'all. I just can't. This year is beating my ass

No Cleft Awareness Month prompts this year, sorry. Without getting too into it, I'll just say I've been having a lot of health problems come up (both mental and physical) and I frankly just don't have the time or energy or "spoons" to host a prompt challenge this month

Perhaps there will be something in September and, either way, I will still be hosting @hurtcember at the end of the year
