Firewhiskey Fic

Macho Bee had a really big stinger.
Lady Bird, when aroused, was a singer.
When they heard her loud COO,
all the wood creatures knew
that first date must have been a humdinger!
by Andrea Dietrich

Firewhiskeyfic is FRIDAY, APRIL 12! So don't start drinking yet--at least not for the event! :D

For this Birds and Bees Edition, we highly recommend Cocktails Named After Birds!

Why not start off with a Thirsty Crow...



If bees are more your style, how about the Bees Knees!



The festivities will begin at 10PM BST/5PM EDT/2PM PDT on Friday April 12! 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!

Gilderoy Lockhart

Sex Ed

Honey

Birds of a Feather

Well-Bred

Total Eclipse (of the Heart)

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

( Basic Rules )

Again, Friday, April 12 at 10PM BST/5PM EDT/2PM PDT. We hope to see you there!

Your drunken mods have been BUSY and need a little guidance as to when our next FWF Event should take place. Please answer the poll by this Friday, March 15!

Before we start, please read these rules and guidelines:

1. Each entry has been posted separately so that creators can get feedback on their work. This is a drunken creation contest, so feel free to laugh and tease, just don't be cruel. We'll be watching very closely. CREATORS - DO NOT REPLY TO COMMENTS ON YOUR ENTRY. The voting period is anonymous. You may reply AFTER the reveals.

2. Some of these entries are very NC-17. Please keep this in mind when you click on the link. There will be no anonymous comments - you must have a DW account if you are going to comment.

3. You may only vote once! No voting for your own entry.

4. Cast your vote by responding to THIS POST using the format below. All votes will be screened.

Most Coherent Entry: [insert entry# here]
Least Coherent Entry: [insert entry# here]
Funniest Entry: [insert entry# here]
Favorite Entry: [insert entry# here]
Best use of prompt: [insert entry# here]
Best smut: [insert entry# here]

ENTER ONLY THE ENTRY NUMBER, NOT THE NAME OF THE FIC!!

5. All votes must be in by Saturday, December 16th at 11:59PM EST. If you submitted a fic, you MUST vote. If you do not vote, and your fic was the winner in that category, guess what? You will not win!

6. Winners will be revealed no later than Tuesday, December 19th. All entries will remain up so everyone can read them again and again.

7. Winners will get a banner for their bravery, hard work, and for putting up with the Mods' inebriated selves. :D

Wynter wakeneth al my care,
Nou this leves waxeth bare;
Ofte I sike ant mourne sare
When hit cometh in my thoht
Of this worldes joie, hou hit goth al to noht.
‘Wynter wakeneth al my care’ is one of the earliest surviving winter poems in English literature. You can read more about it here. As soon as I saw it, I thought it looked perfect for FWF. ;)

Firewhiskeyfic is SATURDAY, DECEMBER 9! So don't start drinking yet--at least not for the event! :D

For this Wintry Mix Edition, we highly recommend 46 Best Winter Cocktails for the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!

Nothing says the holidays like a cranberry mimosa....



Or if you want something more tropical while you stay warm by the fire, perhaps a Jack Frost is for you.



The festivities will begin at 10PM GMT/5PM EST/2PM PST on Saturday December 9! 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

Welcome to the 'Travel' edition of firewhiskeyfic! We, your Mods - sdk and 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:

Minerva McGonagall

Portkey

Sex on the Beach

Lost Luggage

Sweater Weather

Trains, Planes and Automobiles


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, August 21st. Voting will begin on August 22nd and last until Saturday, August 26th.

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)

<b>Title:</b> <b>Author:</b> <b>I am of legal drinking age in my region:</b> (yes/no) <b>Pairing(s)/Characters/Fandom:</b> <b>Challenge/Prompts used:</b> <b>Summary:</b> <b>Rating/Warnings:</b> <b>Word count:</b> <b>Author's Notes (if any):</b>

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!

Torino plans to start with a rum and Coke while Shelly has had something come up at the last minute and probably can't make it tonight. That's all right though, Torino will drink enough for two! :D

Let's get our drunk on!

We're back with a brand new fun-filled drunken night of fic, art and frivolity! Join us here at firewhiskeyfic on Saturday August 19, beginning at 4pm EDT/9pm BST! Prompts and further details will be posted a week before!
