Hello everyone!

We are so glad to see that so many of you are getting excited for the Jegulus Big Bang! 

It is now one week until Sign-Ups officially open up so we thought we’d share a little reminder of all of the important information about the fest in preparation for that!

As mentioned above Sign-Ups officially open on May 1st. You will be able to sign up as either an author, artist or beta reader!

The mod team has been working hard behind the scenes to prepare all of the sign-up forms, which will be available through Google Forms. For this you will need an email-address and we would recommend that you don’t use a personal one/one with personal information. The email-address will also be used for any future information that we might be sending out via email (like the link to our Discord server!). 

Speaking of Discord! We have worked hard on creating a space for everyone involved in the Jegulus Big Bang to have somewhere to talk, exchange ideas, hype each other up, do sprints with fellow creators etc. and we are so excited to be sharing it with you in the near future (spoiler alert: it’s pretty cool, if we do say so ourselves!)! 

As always we remind you that while joining the server is mandatory for signing up for the Big Bang, there is no pressure to be active within the server. 

Having all fest participants in one place will allow the mod team to make any important announcements and will make it easier for any queries to come straight to us. This will also allow for a clear line of communication between writers, betas and artists to collaborate once the pairings have been announced.

There’s nothing quite like a Big Bang to inspire you and we hope that all of the wonderful ideas floating around in your heads will be enough to convince you to join the fest and sign up next week because we cannot wait to see what you’ve come up with!

If you have any questions please feel free to check out the FAQ, send us an ask or email us at jegbigbang@gmail.com!

🌯Welcome to HP Recipe Rec Fest!🍰

Ingredients:

1 whole tried and tested recipe

A handful of any of your favourite Harry Potter characters

1 plot bunny (fresh)

A dash of productivity (double concentrated)

5 sprigs of inspiration

Method:

Sign up using the google form or by sending us an ask (here is an accessible log of all the pledged recipes, to avoid many multiple versions of the same dish).

Write your fic/ draw your art. Note: your fic/art must reference or include the dish matching your included recipe; this can be in passing or central to the story.

Ensure your recipe and the method is clearly identified within the fic or attached to the art - this may be at the beginning or end of your fic, or incorporated into the story/art.

Post your art or fic BY MAY 31st ensuring it has been properly tagged. This can be just to tumblr, or ao3, or both! If you would like to add it to the collection, you may do so.

Use the tag HP Recipe Rec Fest 2024 on ao3 so all recipes can be found under one tag.

Tag us on tumblr for a reblog and to have your recipe added to the ‘Masterlist Recipe Book’*

Enjoy your efforts with a cup of tea.

*NB: The Masterlist Recipe Book will be published on June 1st.

Nutritional advice:

All content warnings must be properly tagged. On tumblr posts, tag with #hprrf and #hp recipe rec fest. You should also @ us for a reblog and so we can read/view your work.

We will try to update the sign-ups as quickly as possible but there may be a short delay due to time zones and being working adults.

Chef (author) notes:

- ALL HARRY POTTER SHIPS WELCOME

- This fest follows SALS, YKINMKATO, DLDR

- We appreciate that recipes may not be of your own creation. Where a recipe has been directly lifted from a book/website, please drop a link/title. If your recipe found in a book/website has been adapted, this is not necessary.

- Ideally, fics will be between 1,000 and 10,000 words (though we don’t want to curb your enthusiasm).

- Please only write E-rated fics if you are over 18. Authors who abuse the rule will not have their works reblogged or endorsed by the fest.

- Multiple recipes and fics by the same author are welcome, but please complete your first before you submit another recipe to the google form

**I would like to give a huge shout out to @eyra and @greyeyedmonster-18 both of whom have written fics (TORFPS; Eyra and Chef’s Kiss; Grey, which is no longer on ao3) about sharing food together/recipes and cooking, and have recipes linked or have shared recipes related to them. Without their works, I wouldn’t have come up with the fest idea - thank you endlessly for sharing these with us <3 Rory**

PRONGSFOOT REVERSE BIGBANG: INTEREST CHECK

Open until Feb 1. 1pm. UTC.

Do you love Prongsfoot? Are you an artist? a writer? we are making an interest check for our first Prongsfoot Reverse BigBang! What is a Reverse BigBang? A Reverse Bang is a fest akin to a Big Bang, the main difference is that the Art is created first and works as promp for the fanfic created for the BigBang!

We want to host a Reverse BigBang, but to do so, we first need to know if there are enough people, specially artist, interested in being part of this.

What kind of art would be accepted in the bang: Fanart, digital or analog and 4 panel minicomics. Moodboards are not considered as part of the art the art created as prompt, but it can be used as an extra piece for the project.

If you are an interested artist/writer, please fill up this short form:

Hello everybody, and welcome to the Jegulus Big Bang!

We are so excited to be bringing this fest to jegulus, and hope you guys will come along for the ride.

A big bang fest is an almost two decade old tradition throughout fandom, with its aim to bring writers and artists together to collaborate to tell one story in multiple formats.

If you’re unfamiliar with the concept of a big bang, here’s a brief description! These fests usually run for several months, typically with the goal to write a novel length works. An author will write a fic, in our case with a minimum word count of 20k, and provide a summary anonymously to the artists who sign up. The artist will then choose a summary that speaks to them, and they will create a piece (or multiple) of fanart as a companion piece to the fic.

Our hope for this big bang is to not only encourage authors and artists to try something new, but to help the community as a whole to connect with each other in a way we might not have before!

The mods have been working on this for a long time, and we are so delighted to be bringing it to you all now. We can’t wait to see what you will create!

- mods Cass, Gabby, Rose, Maggie, Shan & Kat

HARRY POTTER RECIPE REC FEST COMING SOON!!

Watch this space for more information soon!

[hpdrizzle]

☔ HP Drizzle 2024 Rules & Guidelines ☔

Welcome to HP Drizzle fest, a weather based, anonymous, 18+  fest for all ships in the Harry Potter fandom!

☔ What do we mean by weather based?

Any work that centres around weather (characters kissing in the rain, soaking up the sun, snowed in – go wild!)

☀️ What does anonymous mean?

Created works will be posted on AO3 anonymously, and authors will be revealed after all submissions have been posted!

Please do not post your work anywhere or discuss the details of your work with anyone but your beta/alpha and the Drizzle Mods until after authors are revealed.

Feel free to tell people you are participating in Drizzle Fest! Just no details!! 

🌤️ 18+? What does that mean?

To participate in any part of the fest (prompting, claiming, etc) you must be 18 years old as of 21 April 2024.

🌬️ Fest Timeline

🌧️ Prompting opens: 21 April ☔ Prompting closes: 03 May ☀️ Claiming begins: 06 May ⚡ Claiming closes: 06 August (for fic: once we reach 80 claims) 🍃 Submissions due by: 16 August ❄️ Posting begins 01 September

☔ Prompting

Prompts will be submitted via Airtable form that will be posted when prompting opens on 21 April. 

All prompts must be centred around weather. 

You may submit up to ten prompts. 

You can attach your name to your prompt or prompt anonymously - but we’re trusting you to stick to ten either way! 

You do not have to create a work for the fest in order to submit a prompt.

Prompts may be as short or as descriptive as you like! Please note that prompts are for inspiration only and creators may not fulfil all aspects of your wishes.

Self-prompting is allowed through the claiming form.

☔ Claiming for Art/Craft and Fic

⚡ Claiming opens via Airtable form on 06 May at 2pm ET (what time is that for me?), and will remain open until 06 August, or once we reach 80 claims for fic. Art/Craft claiming closes on 06 August with no cap.

Each prompt can be claimed once for fic and once for art/craft. 

You may claim for BOTH fic and art/craft at the same time, either as an individual or as a collaboration. If you are doing a collab, please email us at hpdrizzle@gmail.com to inform the mods. 

Prompts will be awarded on a first come first served basis. 

Please choose your top three prompts when claiming, in order of preference (i.e. your top prompt as prompt choice 1, second choice as prompt choice 2, etc). This is in case your first choice has already been claimed. 

You may only claim one prompt at a time. 

Once you finish your prompt, you may claim an additional prompt and create a second work, if claims are still open. Please submit your completed work as per submission guidelines below and then email hpdrizzle@gmail.com and let us know you wish to claim an additional prompt. 

If you claim a prompt and subsequently feel unable to complete the work, please inform us as soon as possible at hpdrizzle@gmail.com. We understand that life can get in the way and there will be no repercussions for dropping out of the fest! 

☔ Claiming for Podfic or Translation

⚡ Claiming opens via Airtable form on 06 May at 2pm ET (what time is that for me?), and will remain open until 06 August.

If you wish to claim for podfic or translation, you must have the author's permission, or a blanket permission stated publicly by the author allowing for podfics or translations. We require written proof for the permission either via a screenshot of the page showing blanket permission or of the conversation as part of your claiming form.

All podfics and translations must be of works within the Harry Potter fandom and be heavily influenced by the theme of weather. Podfics must be recorded specifically for this fest. Translations must be done specifically for this fest.

If you are looking for fics to podfic or translate, you can always start by looking at previous works within the HP Drizzle collections! 

Please be aware that works must also meet the minimum word count of 1,000 words to be eligible!

Podfics will be posted anonymously, but podficcers are allowed to state their name in the podfic recording.

☔ Creating

For fics, podfics and translations, there is a minimum word count of 1,000 words and no maximum. 

AI generated works of any format are not permitted in this fest.

All fics and translations must be beta-read (If you are unable to find a beta, please let us know!), and podfics should be beta-listened for accuracy before submitting.

If you are creating a work that would also benefit from a sensitivity reader and need help finding one, please let us know! 

If you are looking for an alpha, beta, or sensitivity reader in a public forum, please keep the information provided to a minimum as this is an anonymous fest.

Creations must be complete works. Please do not submit a draft for a fic that has not been completed (or single chapters of a multi-chaptered work). 

All creations must be individual works, and cannot be part of a series, or a prequel/sequel to an existing work.

All creations must be in English or include an English translation.

Submission of translations as a creation may be in any language, but must be linked back to the original English work via the AO3 “Inspired By” function.

All creations are posted anonymously. However, we allow artists to include signatures/watermarks on their creations if they wish, and podficcers are allowed to state their name in the podfic recording itself. 

☔ Submitting

⚡ Once you have completed your work, it’s time to submit! Submissions are due 16 August, but if you are finished before this date, you are welcome to submit early.

Submission Requirements

You are required to add drizzle_mod as co-creator when uploading your creation. This is primarily so that we can change the posting date, and add in the standard fest end note and the tag for HP Drizzle 2024. We will not make any other changes to your work, and we will remove the mod account after reveals.

Add your fic to the Drizzle collection. All works must be posted directly to the AO3 collection here.

Podfics and translations should be linked to the original work using the AO3 function: “This work is a remix, a translation, a podfic, or was inspired by another work” and pasting the URL of the original fic.

Please state the title, author, rating and any major archive warnings in the audio intro of the podfic. 

Any art or images used for cover art should be copyright-free or have the consent of the artist. Any music or sounds used within the podfic should be copyright-free.

Works must be tagged appropriately and extensively, and include all appropriate warnings. If you have any questions about tagging, please refer to this list of potential triggers, tags and squicks or ask the mods.

We ask that you do not gift the creation to the prompter if you are not taking their squicks into consideration.

Please include your prompt in the creation notes at the beginning of the work to share the inspiration for your work.

Complete your submission header form when you submit your fic. This will be sent directly to participants via email. If, at any point, you decide to change your header after submission, please make sure to send the mods your updated version.

The mods will proof all fics and podfics and inform you if there are any additional requirements. Please check your emails regularly to see if we’ve sent you a message regarding your work.

Please don't change the date on your creation - mods will update the posting date when your creation is revealed!

Please contact the mods via email if you have any issues with/when posting your work.

☔ Extensions

If you need an extension, or have to drop out, please let us know by email ASAP!

We are happy to work with you to set an extended submission date if you need more time - you just need to communicate clearly with us so we can make it happen!

☔ Posting

The mods will post your creation, and creations will be shared via the fest Tumblr. 

We will do our best to provide a posting schedule for creators, but the schedule may be subject to change!

☔ Further information

For general questions about the fest, don’t hesitate to contact the mods at hpdrizzle@gmail.com or drop us an ask on Tumblr (@hpdrizzle). We will aim to respond within a reasonable timeframe.

Your rays of sunshine ☀️,

Magical Trans Comfort Fest (AKA MT comfest) 2023!

For the third consecutive year, we are running the MT comfest! With new prompts, fresh out of the oven, we cannot wait to see what you'll offer the world! This fest is meant to provide comfort and a sense of community to those who might have a hard time during the holidays, and those who want to spread warmth during this time! Thank you @basicallyahedgehog for your beautiful graphics.

This is a very informal fest, so there is no hard deadline and you don’t have to sign up– all you have to do is create your work, and then post it into the collection once it’s open! The rules are the same as last year– above all, we ask for respect and kindness in both creating and interacting with this fest. Your creation must also have a positive tone, be an HP work, be thoroughly tagged, and contain at least one trans character. Works can be mature or explicit as long as they are tagged appropriately and the creator is over 18. You do not have to be part of the server to participate, though we’d love for you to join!

You can produce whatever you feel comfortable with, whether it be a drabble, a long one-shot, a doodle, a time-consuming fanart, a podfic, a collage, a fic-bind, a headcanon post… whatever you want!

The fest will run for three days and we are providing prompts for inspiration, but feel free to pick and choose or completely ignore them if you have other ideas! The collection will be opened closer to the date of publishing. In the meantime, feel free to check out the great works from last year’s fest!

You might have peeked two sets of prompts earlier on this post. For extra spiciness, we got you another entire new set of prompts! We have the regular prompts, and same as last year, they can be combined or used on their own. Then you have the dual prompts, who go together and don't bear really well to be separeted. Have fun!

December 23: Euphoria - Board games - Holiday T4tree - Fringe cutting - Spices & boats December 24: Ribbon - Book lending - Authentic introduction - Hot chocolate - Family & nail polish December 25: Sharing is caring - Flux - Jewellery shopping - Carolling - Communal cooking & empowerment

Are you really couple cooking with wine if the bottle, the next bottle and half the box the wine came in isn't empty by the end of it, after only needing 150ml for the recipe? my piece for the @hprecipe-recfest. Thank you so much for hosting, this was so much fun to do :) Recipe is below the cut also featuring a live demonstration of me playing ship of Theseus with it

Tartiflette (For 6 people) the * marks stuff you can easily replace with something else see end of recipe for that

Recipe takes about: 50-60 minutes in total - 30-40 min in preparation, 20min in baking You'll need: 900g potatos (hard boiling) 400g bacon* 5 shalotts* 2 gloves of garlic salt and pepper 150ml wine (white, dry)* 1 Reblochon (400g-500g)* how to prepare: Wash the potatos and cook them without peeling them first until completely cooked (~20 minutes). While the potatos are on the stove, dice bacon, garlic and onions and fry all with a bit of oil on medium heat until everything is cooked. Once the potatos are finished peel them and slice them finely.* Preheat the oven to 200°C/390°F. Save yourself a headache later and oil the baking pan. For the next steps it helps if you know how salty your bacon is! Put half of the potato slices into the pan and salt and pepper it. Then put half of the onion, bacon, garlic mix down, salt and pepper that too. Repeat with the other halves, so you have 4 layers in total. Pour your wine over the layers and slice your cheese so it can cover the entire casserole while melting. Put it onto the middle level of your oven and bake for 20 minutes. Note: If you have leftovers you can just freeze them and reheat them in the oven. (personally wouldn't recommend microwave it gives the soft cheese a funny bytaste) Alteration suggestions: bacon: if you don't eat pork just use chicken or beef optimal would be an air dried one but really it's whatever, personally I use this recipe to use up kinda dry leftovers shallots: just use whatever onion is in season wine: also alcoholic: if you already have an open white wine honestly just use that one up if it's a dessert one just add a bit of vinegar if you want the tardness to be strong but otherwise you'll be fine non-alcoholic: use veggie stock with a bit of vinegar instead the recipe needs some sourness that'd otherwise come from the wine so I wouldn't recommend using only stock Reblochon: you need a camenbert-like soft cheese if you don't like spicy ones use a mild one, if you have leftovers use these If you have sensory issues or the potatos you have shouldn't be boiled in the skin just peel them before cooking honestly. You'll lose some of the earthy taste the recipe is going for but it's a pretty subplimental taste here.
