torino10154: Glass of firewhiskey (Firewhiskeyfic)
[personal profile] torino10154
Welcome to the 'April Fools' edition of [community profile] firewhiskeyfic! We, your Mods - [personal profile] sdk and [personal profile] torino10154, are so glad you could make it. We love everyone today. Feel free to friend us on DW. We promise not to stalk you... much. :D

Your challenges for this round are:

Fred & George Weasley

Riddikulus

Court Jester

Sex Pollen

On Heat/In Heat

Tiptoe Through the Tulips



Quick clarification for newbies: you don't have to use all the prompts--though that does make for a fun fic!--but since one of the categories for voting is "Best Use of Prompt" we do recommend using at least one. We try to have a few prompts each round that are not HP-specific.

As you know, this is the Official Discussion Post. If you feel like chatting, and we hope you do, pop in here and let us know how it's going. Please do not discuss your fic/art. You can discuss ideas, drinks, how wasted you are, your favorite actors or musicians, the state of the world (a nice, safe topic LOL), or whatever floats your boat. Just don't discuss your fic/art. This is an anonymous fest until after the reveal, and we don't want hints being given as to what you're writing about. :)

And just so we're clear, you don't have to write pr0n, though it definitely makes for interesting reading when characters change right in the middle of shagging because you're too drunk to remember who you're writing about. ;) You can write for any fandom (including original), but though we're getting more diversity, we're still fairly HP-focused. Anything goes!

Once you are semi-conscious, send your UNBETA'D UNCORRECTED fic to this email: fwfdrunkmods@gmail.com Trust me, we can tell if you've messed with it, so don't do it, okay?

You will receive an email from us confirming that we got it. If you don't get an email, we didn't get it. Your fics/art will be due by midnight on Monday, April 3rd. Voting will begin on April 4th and last until Saturday, April 8th.

HERE IS THE HEADER! You can put this in the email body or the fic body. Whatever!

(please fill this out to the best of your ability. If you're unable, we will try to complete it for you)



In order to make things easiest on your poor, likely hungover mods, please put your DW username and (if you can manage) the title of your fic/art into your subject line or at least somewhere in the body of the email. Thank you!

Shelly is going to start with some Pomegranate craft cider (if it's still good) and Torino might try the prepackaged Jack & coke my daughter picked up at Target. :D

Let's get our drunk on!

On the first of APRIL, called APRIL-FOOL DAY,

Approach ye nine Muses, Parnassus descend,
And help out the weak Verse of a destitute friend;
To a poor silly fool prove prevalent tools,
To shew that mankind are all APRIL-FOOLS.

~British Magazine, 1748 (Read more about the origins of April Fools here)

Firewhiskeyfic is SATURDAY, APRIL 1 and that's no joke!

For this April Fools edition, we highly recommend Best Spring Cocktails!

Nothing says spring like a Cherry Blossom cocktail...



Or maybe you'd like to try this gorgeous Griffith Park Swizzle.



The festivities will begin at 9PM BST/4PM EDT/1PM PDT on Saturday April 1! Hopefully, the time works for you but remember that you can come and go as you please, start early, leave late. It's all good as long as while you are writing, you're drinking. :D

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!

Fred & George Weasley

Riddikulus

Court Jester

Sex Pollen

On Heat/In Heat

Tiptoe Through the Tulips


A rundown of the rules. A more thorough explanation will be posted on the night of the event.

Both [personal profile] torino10154 and I agree that April Fools is a much better day to drink with friends than prank them so we're announcing a new round of Firewhiskey Fic!



Firewhiskey Fic April Fools Edition
Saturday, April 1st: 4pm EDT | 9pm BST

(Hopefully, I did the complex Daylight Savings time zone math correctly!)

More info/prompts will be posted approximately a week before. Hope to see you there! ♥

I was googling Hagrid memes and kept coming across images of PS1 Hagrid and cracking up so there is an abundance of PS1 Hagrid in these banners. I'm sorry or you're welcome!

So many categories were close calls with the voting. Fantastic job, everyone!!

Without further ado, may I present the winners and banners of FWF Jan 2023!

winners and banners )

Please let me know if I've made any mistakes! Spelling is hard for me even while sober. XD

[personal profile] torino10154 and I are looking at a possible April Fools date for our next round so keep that in mind. We'll make an official announcement once we know for certain. But for now, please feel free to repost your drunken masterpieces and reply to comments and all of that fun stuff. Thank you all for making this such a fun event time and time again. See you next round! ♥

Hey, everyone! How are you doing out there? Did everyone survive intact? We hope no one suffered any morning after ill-effects. :)

If you turned in your piece, by now you should have gotten confirmation from either [personal profile] sdk or myself (or possibly both of us!). If you've emailed it in but didn't hear back, we haven't got it. Please send it in again! Our email is fwfdrunkmods@gmail.com.

You have until midnight EST Sunday to turn in your piece if you haven't already. Remember, no editing allowed! If you passed out before you finished a header, that's acceptable to add to, but no correcting or messing with the fics and/or art itself.

We'll be posting all pieces anonymously on Monday all in one go and then voting will commence! A post on voting will go up then as well, with all the details.

We are so excited to share all of the drunken masterpieces!! :D

— Homer, The Odyssey

Firewhiskeyfic is FRIDAY, JANUARY 20! (So don't start drinking yet! Though we'll understand if you do.)

For this Not-So-Day January, we highly recommend Dry Drinks for Dry January

The "King of dry drinks" is a Martini!

Martini with olives

Or for dry wines, we've got Sauvignon blanc or Chianti!

Glass of red and white wines

The festivities will begin at 9PM GMT/4PM EST/1PM PST on Friday, January 20! Hopefully, the time works for you but remember that you can come and go as you please, start early, leave late. It's all good as long as while you are writing, you're drinking. :D

I haven't quite finished the charcuterie board but I know we always have a few guests who arrive early so I figured I'd unlock the door. Help yourselves to a drink and a canapé....

Welcome one and all to this very special NYE edition of Firewhiskeyfic! Your mods, [personal profile] sdk and [personal profile] torino10154, are thrilled to spend the evening with you as we count down to 2023!

For tonight, we've got two sets of recommendations: The 32 Best New Year’s Cocktail Recipes to Ring in 2023 in Style and 12 OF THE PRETTIEST NEW YEAR'S EVE MOCKTAILS

Why not try a lovely Sparkling Cranberry-Orange Champagne Punch...

Drinks for New Years

Or perhaps a Blackberry Lemon Mocktail is more your style!

Glass of blackberry lemonade

I seem to like fruity drinks. Sorry! :D

This is not one of our usual events in any way. There's no submitting a fic and voting, no need to keep mum about what project you're working on, no need to even imbibe to participate! I know at least a couple of folks who don't drink were planning to pop in so let's be sure to give them a warm FWF welcome.

Feel free to discuss what you're looking forward to in the new year, write some New Year's themed comment fic, tell us all about your fallen holiday soufflé. :D

Come and go as you please, we'll be here all night!

ETA: I started us off with a couple of comment fic suggestions but feel free to add your own!

Hey y'all, happy December! On behalf of my co-mod [personal profile] torino10154, I come with news! Our next official Firewhiskey Fic event will be on Friday, January 20th, 2023. Mark your calendars!
