everywoman, an all-fandoms exchange featuring female characters, has nominations 6/01-6/08, with sign-ups 6/10-6/20, and works due on 7/25. All characters who canonically identify as female (or can be reasonably interpreted as canonically female, as determined by the mods) are eligible and must be approached as female for the event. Stories must be at least 500 words. Visual art must be at least a clean sketch.

fkficfest, the annual Forever Knight challenge, is releasing its new stories once per day as long as they last. We're up to 7 now with 2 to go. As mod, I happen to know that of all the 9 stories, 4 will feature FK's outstanding women characters. See this year's AO3 collection.

Remember Forever Knight's remarkable women characters? Pathologist Natalie Lambert, entrepreneur Janette Ducharme, detective Tracy Vetter, captain Amanda Cohen, technician Grace Balthazar...?

For our 10^th annual Forever Knight fanwork game, we're playing classic challenge style (on the AO3!) with the common prompt: "10 years" (or "10" & "years").

So: no sign-ups, no matching, no commitments! But we do have a submission deadline of July 14 so that we can enjoy a week of reveals together. (And for those who like more specific requests, we have a Fandom Stocking-style wishing thread.)

Come play with us!

fkficfest, the annual Forever Knight (1992-1996) ficathon game, is open for sign-ups until June 14. Come one, come all!

You fondly remember this remarkable show and its remarkable women characters, don't you? Forensic pathologist Natalie Lambert. Entrepreneur Janette Ducharme. Police detective Tracy Vetter. Police captain Amanda Cohen. Forensic technician Grace Balthazar. Urs! Divia! Norma! Serena! Lisa! Erica! Sofia! Fleur! Come celebrate Forever Knight, its woman characters, and the astonishing fandom of which you're a part!

This is our sixth annual game, so you probably know the drill. (Complete 2015 rules, instructions and examples.) We've added one twist: In the event of 8 or fewer exchange sign-ups, we'll throw open the gates with a classic FKFic-L-style "challenge" game.

06/14: Exchange sign-ups close at noon Pacific Time.
06/15: Exchange assignments are emailed or the challenge prompt is re-posted.
08/22: Stories are due on the AO3 at 11:59 PM Pacific Time.
08/24: Stories begin revealing, and continue at one per day as long as they last.

Come play! FK's rich premise and unforgettable characters are ripe for new stories grappling with the new questions in our lives. Which of FK's outstanding women most speaks to you today?

Title: One Day
Author: Missy aka

bring_me_sugar
Rating: PG
Warnings: Language, mild violence
Fandom: Venture Brothers
Characters: Dr. Mrs. The Monarch, The Monarch, Brock Samson, 21, TimTom, Kevin
Pairing: Dr. Mrs. The Monarch/The Monarch
Recipient:

overthetiber
Prompt: Between co-running the cocoon, developing new villainous schemes, rescuing her beloved yet incompetent husband, fending off the advances of Henchman #21 and/or Rusty Venture, and thwarting Brock Samson's constant attempts to out her, it's a wonder that Sheila finds time to sneak off for a cigarette break.
Spoilers: Up to Season 3, takes place in mid-S3 continuity
Summary: A single day in the life of Sheila.
Author's Notes: Written for

overthetiber for femme_fest ‘10

ariestess

Title: What is Real?
Author: A. Magiluna Stormwriter [aka

ariestess]
Rating: PG13 [for language]
Warnings: none
Fandom: Leverage
Characters: Sophie Devereaux
Pairing: n/a
Recipient:

havocthecat
Prompt: How does a grifter develop genuine friendships when so much of who she appears to be is an act?
Spoilers: This takes place while Sophie's on her sabbatical to find herself during Season 2. Episode 02x04 "The Fairy Godparents Job" and episode 02x07 "The Two Live Crew Job" are specifically mentioned and dealt with in this story.
Summary: "You're the closest thing I've ever had to a real friend and I've never heard you say my real name. How sad is that?"
Author's Notes: The minute I saw this prompt, I jumped on it. I had such big plans for this story prompt, things I wanted to add in about each of the aliases we've seen or heard of, as well as each of her friendships with the women and the men in the team. And I'm actually going to follow through with them, when I have a lot more time and a lot less deadlines, so I can really do with this what I wanted to initially. There's going to be a much longer, more fleshed out version of this down the line. I just don't know when yet.

The background information and alias names that were used and/or considered came from one of the following sites :: Leverage Fan Wiki, Paradisa Wiki, Wikia [Sophie Devereaux], Wikia [Katherine Clive], & Wikia [Sophie's Real Name], as well as episode 02x04 "The Fairy Godparents Job". The name Siobhan McCairney was actually taken from an earlier fic of mine called "Reborn", though the two stories are not necessarily related.

Title: Legacy
Author: A. Magiluna Stormwriter [aka

ariestess]
Rating: PG
Warnings: none
Fandom: Star Trek: Voyager
Characters: Kathryn Janeway [w/ appearances by Gretchen Janeway & Phoebe Janeway]
Pairing: n/a
Recipient:

atraphoenix
Prompt: Legacy
Spoilers: Post-series, though there are spoilers for episode 05x01, "Night".
Summary: There's something about the legacy inherent in the name of a strong person to be admired.
Author's Notes: There was another story I really wanted to try for this prompt, but I knew it wouldn't work right. It was a similar situation, but involved a long lost lover of Kathryn's, and I didn't think I would be able to adequately and properly introduce the lover in the context of the story. Plus? The prompt was about Kathryn, not Kathryn and a heretofore unknown lover of hers. That story will come somewhere down the line.

I want to do a major shout out to Watch Trek.com for having all of the Voyager episodes available, so I could re-watch Night for clarification. You can bet that site will be used in the future for any episodes I need to rewatch. Any family and background info I'd forgotten and needed on Kathryn Janeway came from Memory Alpha.

Additional inspiration on this story came from the song, I'm Your Captain (Closer to Home) by Grand Funk Railroad. The lyrics were more important when I was going to focus on "Night", but I listened to the song on repeat for the bulk of the time that I was writing this story, so they still work as an influence/inspiration.
