Our new challenge is:

SECOND CHANCES



As always, you can interpret the prompt literally or figuratively, in whatever way works for you.

Each work created for this challenge should be posted as a new entry to the comm. Posting starts now and continues up until the challenge ends at 4pm Pacific Time on Sunday, February 1st. No sign-up required.

Mods will tag your work for creator and fandom. When you've posted entries to three consecutive challenges, you will earn a name tag, and we'll go back and tag all your previous entries with your name.

All kinds of fanworks in all fandoms are welcome. Please have a look at our guidelines before you play. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to contact a mod. And if you have any suggestions for future challenges, you can leave them in the comments of this post.

You can view stats for [community profile] fan_flashworks entries and search and filter them via the Community Report and Creator Report. See our FAQ post for more details.

Also, keep an eye out for the next [community profile] ffw_social post, which will go up in the next couple of days. If you haven't joined the [community profile] ffw_social comm, it's never too late to come and check it out. (Posts are locked, which means you have to join to see them.)

Assignments have now been sent out!

  • The deadline is Saturday, January 31 @ 11:59pm Eastern Standard time (Countdown). If your assignment has not been submitted to AO3 by then, you will be defaulted.

  • If your recipient did not request a fandom, character, and drabble type you offered, please contact the mods at seasonsofdrabbles AT gmail.com ASAP.

  • If you need to default, please do so via the button on AO3.

  • For the requirements your drabble must meet, please see our guidelines. The collection is moderated and we will be doing a brief check of submitted works before admitting them into the collection. If we see an issue, we will contact you through email.

  • If you write a drabble for a fandom in the tagset but it doesn't fit anyone's request, you may post it to the collection anyway, with no recipient.

Sticker printing alternatives

[personal profile] ysabetwordsmith suggested I share this short list of resources for printing stickers and other relevant accessories.

This is old news, but Stickermule has shown their asses again by giving away free pro-ICE merchandise, so people have been scrambling for other suppliers for custom stickers. I'm thinking about ordering stickers of my art by Harmonycon. I can't keep up with a million tweets and my Bluesky feed is already scrambled, so here's what I've found:

https://www.standoutstickers.com/
https://stickerguy.com/
https://thestickybrand.com/en-ca (limited time deals page is worth looking at)
https://thestickerlad.com/home (website looks like a WIP but furry-owned. Prices are ok)
https://stickerninja.com/ (this looks like Stickermule's biggest rival)
https://unionmadestickers.com/en-ca (you can probably use them for non-union stuff lol)
https://stickerblitz.com/ (another rival with good prices)
https://zapcreatives.com/en-us
https://wiki.scumsuck.com/resources:stickers (guide on how to print your stickers at home. Lists options for scanners and paper to buy, etc.)
Vograce orders from China but I've had a good experience ordering sample packs and one-off keychains from them. YMMV. It's better for physical goods. Not sure of any alternatives that let you do one-off orders.

Hi all-

Since HalfaMoon has blossomed over the years, I'd like to get some help with the feedback/cheerleading end of things. Basically, I would love to have a person or two sign up for a calendar day (not a theme day) and read/view/appreciate the contributions for that day. Please leave a comment and let me know which day or days you'd like to help with.

Everybody loves a bit of feedback and who knows, you might just discover a new fandom to fall in love with.'

Thanks for the help!

We've finished initial matching and have two unmatchable participants (i.e., participants without a potential recipient). Please check the email associated with your AO3 account if your AO3 username starts with A or C, as we've reached out about your unmatchability. We will give 24 hours for a response before we proceed with the rest of matching. Update: we've heard back from all unmatchables.

Note: AO3 recently announced it'd be down for scheduled maintenance on Wednesday, January 21. We'll do our best to get assignments out ahead of the downtime, and will let you all know ASAP if we expect otherwise.
