Fic posting is now open for the McShep Happyfic Challenge!

Once you've posted your story at your own journal, comment to this entry with a link using the template below so that we can add you to the master list we'll be posting to the noticeboard in a few days. You have until November 5th at noon your own time to get your fic posted and linked. After that, we'll be closing the fest down with a big ol' post of glory and nothing else will be included, but you're more than welcome to keep posting happy fic until the end of time as far as we're concerned! And if you have any questions, concerns, problems, feel free to ask them right here in the comments. Bring on the fic!! :D

<b>Title:</b> <a href="YOUR POST'S URL HERE">The title of your fic here</a>
<b>Author:</b> However you want to be credited
<b>Rating:</b> G through NC-17
<b>Summary:</b> Can be a few lines from the fic or a synopsis - please, nothing too epic, just a couple of sentences.


The Masterlist - updating as we go along )


Closed!

Guys, it felt like the day would never come. The weeks - if not months - have dragged on eternally, and we're all so ready for this to be over, so ready to be free...oh, wait, that's next Tuesday.

Because, actually, this time around, I'm talking about HAPPYFEST! Yes, that's right, tomorrow is the magic day! I'm so excited, aren't you! It might even tide me over until Tuesday (and keep me from having a nervous breakdown)!

Because I'm on the East Coast and we are impatient, we're declaring Happyfest open for business at midnight, New York time. As soon as midnight hits there, no matter where you are, you can post! I'll be putting up a collection post right around then, and once you post your story in your journal, comment there with a link and we'll add it to the masterlist!

A note for those freaking out: a bunch of people have been asking us if they can have a tiny extension. We're going to extend the posting deadline through noon on Wednesday (I'm sure you can guess why). If you post through that time period, we'll link you in the masterlist and then make a noticeboard post with the whole list after it's over. If you can't make it by Wed morning, you won't be in the masterlist, but you should still post your fic anyway - happy fic never goes out of style!

WOO HAPPY FEST! \o/

Hi, all! Remember that super awesome McShep Happyfest a bunch of you signed up for? Yep, that one. This is your friendly October reminder post, letting you know you have a little over three weeks until the November 1st posting date. Don't freak out, you can totally do this! We have confidence! And to encourage you, we're opening this post up for recs, cheerleading, idea-bouncing, and all that fun fest stuff. More about that at the end, though; first, [livejournal.com profile] chopchica and I have each come up with our top five fest-compliant fics to give you some inspiration and/or a reason to procrastinate. Fridays are made for procrastinating, after all!

In which we ramble lovingly. )

Now. About that fun fest stuff. We're hoping to turn this post into a kind of fest in its own right. Writers are encouraged post snippets or "OH GOD I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WAS THINKING"s so that everyone else can bring out their pom poms and cheer them on. Happy fic recs, whether they be fest-compliant or not, are welcomed with open armed delight. And if you're having trouble finding a beta or you need someone to hold your hand, there are probably plenty of volunteers floating around!

And lastly: pimp this if you can! We don't know how all the participants got to us the first time around, but we'd like everyone to see the reminder. Here are two smaller buttons if you want them, feel free to hotlink. :D

Welcome to the signups for happyfest! We're your mods, [livejournal.com profile] unamaga and [livejournal.com profile] chopchica!

What is happyfest, you may ask? Why, it's a fest for long and happy fic, set in the canon SGA universe! We've noticed that a lot of the long and plotty fics written in the last three years have either been chock full of angst, or AUs, and we started wondering how to get ourselves some long and happy fic - fic where there are romps and adventures, and hopefully some really, really hot sex. 

Then it occurred to us; make other people write it for us! [livejournal.com profile] eleveninches put a poll in the field asking if anybody would even sign up, and the answer was yes! Now here we are!

So, want to write a long happyfic? This is what we're looking for. )
