IT'S TIME: SNARRY HOLIDAYS STARTS TODAY!

[snarryhols]

For many people it's a stressful (if lovely) time of year, and snarry_holidays is ready to insert that special bit of Snarry into your holiday season. ;-) We'll kick start our posting tonight at 9pm EST, so please stick around if you can!

Some notes before we begin:


-- We will start posting today (yay!) December 1, and posting will run until December 23. snarry_holidays will be posting this year at InsaneJournal, LiveJournal, and Dreamwidth. You may comment to any of the sites, though commenting on IJ is encouraged, if possible.

-- With around 60 submissions, we will be posting an average of two gifts per day (a mix of fic and art, of course) with several days of three gifts. We will do our best to space out long fics so that everyone doesn't become too overwhelmed.

-- If you are participating and you have an extension, please keep us updated and get your gift to us ASAP. If we have not heard from you at all, you might be in trouble! *waves modly stick*

-- Thanks so much to arcanetrivia, who has agreed to help us proofread!

-- Please remember that feedback and comments are very much encouraged. That being said, please attempt to keep your comments cordial. We know people have strong feelings about Snarry and writing, fic and art, but please play nicely (i.e. no flaming, say something constructive). If you have any questions about what this might constitute, email us at snarryholiday [at] gmail [dot] com. We'll be reading all the comments.

-- We're going to be collecting recs for daily_snitch, so please send us links to your fic and art recs! We're collecting the recs at this post, on IJ. Fic and art need three recs (not locked) to qualify.

-- Please spread the word!

We hope everyone enjoys the all the lovely Snarry coming in the next few weeks! Thanks to all the hard work on behalf of the participants!

Art: Protective Custody - for sev1970

[snarryhols]

Title: Protective Custody
Artist: Certainly not Severus Snape
Giftee: sev1970
Media/Medium: Ballpoint pen on paper
Rating: PG
Pairing: Snarry
Warnings: None
Disclaimer: All Harry Potter characters herein are the property
of J.K. Rowling and Bloomsbury/Scholastic. No copyright infringement
is intended.
Summary: Harry certainly didn't enjoy spending the last part of
his sixth year in detention after the Sectumsempra incident, copying
out his father's past misdeeds. Imagine having to watch over him for
hours on end, from only a few feet away, knowing what happened, what
will never be, and what's coming... Any day now.
Artist's Notes: You asked for gen, with angsty Harry and
protective Snape at Hogwarts. I hope this fits the bill! All furniture
and the knicknacks on Snape's desk, including the lopsided oil lamp
with modern lampshade on, were inspired by Snape's office as it
appeared in the CoS movie.
