firewhiskeyficThe Dog Days of Summer
Around the corner lies August, which can make
you rue, the day. If you think July was
hot, August is the worst by far. It's hard
to escape its sweltering heat, no matter
who you are. You can take a dip in the
ocean, if you enjoy having a steam bath.
The water will never be cold, as August,
unleashes its wrath. Here it is, the
wonderful days of summer.
We recommend some fruity summer drinks for the occasion!
Why not try a blood orange bellini...
or perhaps, a classic Pimms cup!
The festivities will begin at 10PM BST/5PM EDT/2PM PDT on Saturday, August 11th!
We are hosting on our DW community again this round. If you do not have a DW account (yet *g*), you should be able to comment with OpenID or anonymously.
Your Prompts!
Ginny Weasley
Eeylops Owl Emporium
Rogue Bludger
Bat-Bogey Hex
Stormy Weather
A run down of the rules. A more thorough explanation will be posted on the night of the event.
1. This round will take place on Saturday August 11th, 5pm EDT (and last until you finish or pass out). Due to sucky time zones mucking everything up, if you'd like to start earlier or later, that's fine!
2. Your fic and/or art will be due approximately 48 hours from the challenge start time. For this round, that means Mon., August 13th by midnight. (We would prefer to turn them in the same night or the next morning, but we understand drunk/hangover emailing might be a tad too challenging.)
Please note: The extra time provided may not be used for editing or adding on or fixing typos, etc. (If you were too drunk to add a header, please add one when sober. ;)) Also note: NO BETAS ALLOWED. We recommend you don't even look at or reread your submission before turning it in. (You can be surprised right along with the rest of us!)
3. Submissions will be posted anonymously on August 14th and voting will be open for various categories through Saturday, August 18th. Please vote! (But not for yourself! :P)
4. All fandoms are welcome! We're traditionally very HP focused here, but if you get inspired to go Marvel or Supernatural or Doctor Who, etc., etc. (or a crossover!) that's totally fine.
5. And finally, you must be at least the legal drinking age in your country in order to participate.

Again, Saturday August 11th at 5 PM EDT/10PM BST/2PM PDT. We hope to see you there!

Date: 2018-08-11 06:45 am (UTC)I'm going to start early, so I expect I'll be a little sozzled by the time you all arrive. I chair the social committee in my complex, and the annual BBQ we host is tommorow at 6pm(pst). I warned my committee that I may be less than completely sober when I arrive.
