FemmeRemix

If you haven't already noticed, the collection is live! Please read and enjoy! We encourage you to leave comments, especially since remixes often have lower readership than regular fics.

If you do not have a gift in the collection or the story you have received is incomplete or not compliant with our rules, please contact the mods via femmeremix AT gmail.com! We will sort it out as best we can.

Thank you once again to all of our participants!

The collection will be closing in approximately 24 hours, on July 29 at 8PM EDT. Any final changes/edits to your fics as well as any treats you wish to post must be in by that time.

I will try to post a final reminder tomorrow evening, but I will be on the road and am not sure if I will be able to do so.

We have one outstanding pinch-hit that needs a writer. Once it is claimed, we will be able to re-open the collection for edits, treats, and pinch-hit posting. This story will be due on July 29 at 8PM EDT.

( Details below the cut )

If you are able to write for this pinch-hit, please comment on this post with your AO3 username. Comments are screened.

This pinch-hit has been claimed. Thank you!

Deadline is in one hour. At that time, all assignments should be in, save late pinch-hits and extensions granted.

If you have posted an incomplete story, to the collection, you will be defaulted by the mods and banned from future FemmeRemixes. NO EXCEPTIONS.

ETA: If you have posted a draft to the collection, you MUST publish it in order for us to accept it as complete. We cannot view drafted works to verify their completion.

This is a reminder that all assignments (including pinch-hits that have already been assigned) are due TOMORROW, July 24, at 8:00PM EDT.

If you find that you are not able to complete your assignment, please default ASAP by going to your assignment on AO3 and clicking "Default" so that we can assign a pinch-hitter.

When assignments are due, we will close the collection briefly to check posted assignments and to compile the list of needed pinch-hits. Anyone who has posted a placeholder/obviously incomplete story or who has not posted a story at all (with the exception of pinch-hits assigned after July 22) will be defaulted. If you are defaulted by the mods at the deadline, you will not be allowed to participate in future FemmeRemixes.

Any pinch-hits generated from now on will be due on July 29 at 8PM EDT.

Once posted stories are confirmed and needed pinch-hits have been generated, we will re-open the collection to allow pinch-hits and any treats you might wish to write. You may also make any edits you wish at that time. The collection will be closed again on July 29, at which time all outstanding pinch-hits and treats should be posted.

Collection is here.

ETA: Also, if you have submitted your story to the collection but still have it saved as a draft instead of published, we cannot accept it. Please make sure that you publish your story before the deadline!

This is the official reminder post that stories are due on July 24 at 8PM EDT US. If you haven't started on your fic, you might want to get on that!

This is also a reminder that if the mods default you at the July 24 deadline, you will be banned from future femmeremix exchanges. If it looks like you will not be able to complete your story by the deadline, please default ASAP. This will make it much easier for us to find a pinch-hitter and make it possible for you to participate in the future!

And sign-ups are closed.

If for some reason you were waiting until the very last minute possible and were unable to complete your sign-up, please contact the mods via email at femmeremix at gmail.com immediately.

Assignments will go out when matching is completed, which will be no later than June 5.

Sign-ups will close in just over 24 hours, at 8PM EDT (US), Saturday. If you have not yet signed up, now is the time to do so.

Now is also a good time to double-check the Sign-up Summary to see if there are any fandoms you are interested in offering to remix. Please pay special attention to those fandoms listed with either 1 request and 0 offers or 1 request and 1 offer, as they are the ones which will be most difficult to match. If you are able to write in any of those fandoms, the mods would greatly appreciate it if you could edit your offers to include them.

Once sign-ups have closed, we will start the matching process. Our calendar says that assignments will be out June 5, but if matching goes quickly (and it is likely to), we will send out assignments earlier than that. An earlier assignment send-out will not affect due dates.

Pinch-hit signups will remain open. Pinch-hits will go out as-needed and will be assigned on a first-come, first-serve basis. All pinch-hitters will be expected to follow the remix rules (1000+ word remix about at least one female character). As with the regular assignments, pinch-hits are due on July 24. Pinch-hits which are sent out after July 22 will be due on July 29.

Remix Treats sign-ups will also remain open. If you are not participating in the main remix but would like treats, we'd also like to encourage you to sign up as a pinch-hitter (however, you are not obligated to claim a pinch-hit).

Sign-ups are coming along nicely - so far we have 33 participants!

We have also had some questions about writing treats for the challenge. Last year, we did not have that as an option, but this year, we've decided to allow it. Treats are opt-in, so if you are not interested in having more than one story remixed, you do not need to do anything.

If you are interested in receiving remix treats, please leave a comment on this post using the following format:

AO3 Username:
Masterpost URL:
Qualifying Fandoms:
Other Fandoms:
Previous Remixes:
Safe Story:

You may also indicate that you're open to treats in your signup details - signups will be visible to anyone.

ETA: For clarification, treaters are NOT required to remix a story from a qualifying fandom. Anything that is female-focused which is not a previous remix or a safe story is allowed. Treats should also follow the constraints set out in the remix challenge -- that is, all treats should be focused on women (for our given definition of "women"). That said, treats are not subject to the 1000-word minimum.

ETA2: Another clarification: non-participants are allowed to sign up for remix treats. However, we cannot guarantee that you will receive a remix unless you sign up for the challenge through AO3. If you are a non-participant, we would like to encourage you to sign up for the pinch-hit list as well. You are also more than welcome to treat as much as you like.

The treat deadline is July 29 -- the same day as our final pinch-hit deadline.

Below the cut is the full list of nominated fandoms, separated by media type. There may be some duplication of tags across media types - this is due to AO3's system, not duplicate nominations. Please double-check that the fandoms you nominated and that were accepted are listed.

If you have any questions or don't see your fandom(s) listed, please comment here.
