2023 Wrap Up
Thank you to my lovelies @phoebe-delia and @geesenoises for the tags! You can find their round ups here and here. I’ve lost track of who has and hasn’t done these, so if you see this and want to join in, consider yourself tagged :))
I’m almost a week late, but here we go!
2023 was A Year. I somehow managed to get nine fics out, even though it doesn’t feel like that many. I have multiple WIPs that “should” have been done ages ago and I get so caught up in thinking about those that I forget to look at what I have actually achieved (and then Phoebe has to shake me a little bit!). So here we are, looking back on what I’ve achieved in 2023 - and not letting unfinished projects rob them of their joy.
Some stats
Last year I wrote 19,539 words across nine fics.
I wrote for three fests - magical trans comfest 2022 (late entries!), 2023 trans fest and the inaugural dronarry fest.
I helped mod the inaugural drarry disability fest.
I wrote four gift fics.
I wrote for three unique pairings/triads.
Drarry
The Perfect Knit - the one where Draco is a dog trainer, Harry is an adorable mess, and they both pine
Right Over Left - the one where Harry would do anything for his partner, including learning to braid hair.
This Time and Keep You In This Heart of Mine - the one (two) with eighth year party games, getting together and back together, angsty Harry and cinnamon roll Draco from two points of view.
A Little Bit Of You - the one with misunderstandings, coming out, and redefining love. And possibly the most unique interpretation of Mambo No. 5!
Simple and Confessions - the ones where Rowan tries to write micros.
Triads
The Promise of Things to Come - the one where Harry is kidnapped, and long-held feelings are shared. Established drarry, pre-dronarry
(They) Keep Ke Warm - the one with coming out, all the soft trans feels, and disaster bisexual ron. Established golden trio poly
Non-Fandom
I debated back and forth but I’ve decided to share some of the non-fandom things I’ve achieved this past year. Because they’re worth celebrating too.
Stepping into a senior role at work, while being the only person of my profession in the company, and the only one working across both community and residential care services
Continued studying my Masters
Received multiple diagnoses and started the investigation process for others
Bought a fucking house
Continued to learn about myself as a human being, and, more to the point, embraced those parts of me
Continued to make and grow some of my most treasured friendships in this fandom
Wrote the first words of my original non-fiction book
All in all, I’m not sorry to put 2023 behind me. But I’m grateful for what it taught me and I’ll carry those lessons into 2024.

It's That Time of Year Again...
Drarry Disability Fest 2024
Welcome Back to the 2ND YEAR of Drarry Disability Fest (2024)!
For those who don't know, Drarry Disability Fest is a fest dedicated to the accurate representation of disabilities, d/Deafness, medical conditions, and mental illness; Drarry Disability Fest is the first of it's kind. In this fest there will be no romanticism of disability (though romance will definitely be present elsewhere), instead we want our artists and writers to focus on accurate depiction - whether it be of the sad, mad, or glad times of disability and mental illness.
Our goal is to add diversity to the Drarry fic and fanart community, and we firmly believe that while disability and mental illness can be very difficult to handle, they do not mean that we're destined to a life of inaction and solitude; we are an empowered community.
All the mods for this fest are disabled/mentally ill to some extent, and have experience with a variety of additional disabilities to ensure that we have maximum ability to give feedback and filter prompts to the best of our ability.
We would also like to say that everyone's experience with mental illness and disability is different, so if you end up reading a depiction of your illness or disability that differs from your own, please accept that we do our best to filter the media in this fest so that it is safe for disabled readers, and remember that every different experience with a condition is valid.
This fest will not be anonymous, and we're posting to the fest AO3 Collection in July as that is Disability Pride Month. This year we are starting everything slightly earlier so that all you beautiful creators have more time to create, so follow our tumblr and join our discord sever to be sure you don't miss anything.
Anyone may prompt to this fest, even if you don't plan to create anything, however we will be filtering your prompt submissions on the AirTable to ensure they are sensitive to the disability/mental illness you are wishing to see depicted.
You don't need to be disabled to write about disabilities, but please do your research, ask questions from disabled sensitivity readers, and if you're ever unsure our wonderful mods Ceylon, Rowan, and Kel are happy to help. We have a wordcount minimum of ~1000 or equivalent. This means if you're not doing a written piece then put in the effort equivalent in your digital fanart, podfic, or other media. We do not accept videos at this time.
Beta readers/viewers are required for each submission. You can self prompt when claiming, and you can claim multiple prompts as long as you submit each work before claiming a new prompt.
The Dates are as follows in MST/MDT:
February 29 (Leap Year): Prompting Begins
March 20: Prompting Closes (Self-Prompting still allowed)
April 1: Claiming Opens
June 15: Claiming Closes
June 16 : Submissions Deadline
July 1: Posting Begins
July 31: Posting Ends & Fest Wrap-up
Further in depth fest rules can be found at the pinned post on our tumblr, please give them a read as they have been updated!
Your mods: Rowan @basicallyahedgehog (tumblr), Ceylon @quackquackcey (tumblr), Kel @slytherinthelibrary (tumblr)
A PSA: We acknowledge that J.K. Rowling is the author of the series this fandom is based in, however all mods involved strongly disagree with and refute any and all racist, antisemitic, transphobic, homophobic, and other prejudiced ideas the author holds. This is a safe space for trans people and two of our mods are trans themselves. If you are transphobic or homophobic or otherwise prejudiced against any marginalized group; you are not welcome here.

Prompting is Now Open!
We're sure you're all as excited as we are about Drarry Disability Fest 2024, and prompting is now open!
Please be mindful of our prompting guidelines when submitting your prompts:
This is an 18+ fest.
Anyone can prompt, whether you’re planning on creating or not, and each person is allowed to submit a maximum of 10 prompts.
A person with a disability doesn’t need to be the main character, but they do need to be one of the primary characters. Along the same note, the disability(ies) don’t need to be the sole focus of the creation, but it does need to be an important part of the person's life.
No cure-all fics, please! If you choose to give your character a disability that can't be cured in real life, please don’t magically take them away in your fic; disabled people can have happily ever afters while still being disabled.
It’s fine to prompt disabled people or mentally ill people getting sick, however please don’t prompt sickfics in which an able person happens to be temporarily sick—they don’t count as a disabled person.
If you have previously written a fic centering the experiences of a disabled person in a Drarry-centric fic, feel free to recommend your work for podfic. However, your fic will still be subject to the screening we put to all prompts in this fest. Because of the nature of this fest in that it’s centered on stigmatized topics, the mods will screen prompts, (and self-prompts once claiming opens) to make sure these rules are followed.
If you are prompting someone else's fic for a podfic, please ensure permission is gained from the author before prompting.
Prompting closes March 20, self prompting still open during claiming
All prompts that have been submitted can be found here.
We can't wait to see what you all come up with!!!
Our discord link is here for those who wish to join the server.

Rules & Guidelines - Drarry Disability Fest 2024
We finally have our rules and guidelines all sorted out and ready to share with everyone! So here it is; if you notice any omitted or missing times or dates that is because those are farther in the future and we cannot predict the exact time they will happen.
We would like to reiterate that transphobia, homophobia, racism, antisemitism, ableism, and fatphobia do not have a place here in this fest; we will take down and reject prompts promoting those ideologies. We do not support J.K. Rowling's damaging views - though she is somehow the author of these books and owns the rights to them - we do not profit from or otherwise benefit from this fest based on the Harry Potter books in any way.
Prompting
Prompting opens February 29.
This is an 18+ fest.
Anyone can prompt, whether you’re planning on creating or not, and each person is allowed to submit a maximum of 10 prompts.
A person with a disability doesn’t need to be the main character, but they do need to be one of the primary characters. Along the same note, the disability(ies) don’t need to be the sole focus of the creation, but it does need to be an important part of the person's life.
No cure-all fics, please! If you choose to give your character a disability that can't be cured in real life, please don’t magically take them away in your fic; disabled people can have happily ever afters while still being disabled.
It’s fine to prompt disabled people or mentally ill people getting sick, please don’t prompt sickfics in which an able person happens to be temporarily sick—they don’t count as a disabled person.
If you have previously written a fic centering the experiences of a disabled person in a Drarry-centric fic, feel free to recommend your work for podfic. However, your fic will still be subject to the screening we put to all prompts in this fest.
Because of the nature of this fest in that it’s centered on stigmatized topics, the mods will screen prompts, (and self-prompts once claiming opens) to make sure these rules are followed.
Prompting closes March 20.
Claiming & Creating
Claiming starts April 1.
Please claim one prompt at a time. You may claim another prompt only after submitting your work. As mentioned in the prompting section, we will allow self-prompting as well granted that your prompt passes our screening.
Collaborations are allowed in any shape, form, or medium aside from videos or gifs. Please sign up together once. We will ask for one main person of contact for the team, as well as emails and AO3 for all members of the group.
This is a non-anonymous fest, so feel free to chat about your prompts as much as you like!
For fics writers, we ask that you write a minimum word count of 1k words and that your fic is beta read. In addition, if you do not personally have the disability you’re writing about or don’t have experience with it, we require for you to have a sensitivity reader look over your work—please research the topic if you don’t know much about the disability you’re writing about!
For podfics, please make sure you have permission from the author of the story you’re podficcing. We will be screening the fics for podfic as well, since sensitivity to issues faced by disabled people is important to us (being three disabled people ourselves, this is kind of a 'no shit Sherlock' moment but we thought we'd say it anyway).
As mentioned in the prompting section, due to the nature of this fest, the mods will be screening works as it is important to us that we have proper representation of the disabilities portrayed, rather than romanticization or stereotyping.
Claiming ends June 15, we trust you to not claim something on the 15 that you cannot finish on the 16.

If you need an extension or need to drop out, no worries! Just email us at [email protected] and tell us how much more time you need.
