Introductory Post

Just saying hi to anyone the might drop by.

Just about anything pertaining to awesome women is welcome here be it fic, fanart, fanmixes, picspams, meta, CAPSLOCK SQUEE!!!, angry rants, fuck you she's awesome lists, and anything else you can think of. As long as it's about awesome women, you're good to go. We welcome gen, het, femslash, slash (if you can find a way to make it about a woman), rpf/s, and anything else that makes you happy.

There are a couple of rules here.

Rules:

-All fic must have a header containing: title, author, rating, pairing, summary, and if necessary, warnings.
-All fic longer than 100 words, icon posts, picspams, or anything else space/graphics heavy must be placed under a cut or fake cut.
-Spoiler warnings are polite. Please use them at your discretion.
-Tag your fic by general type (gen, het, femslash, slash) and by fandom/source. Anyone can create tags (unless something happens that forces me to change this)
-No flaming and no character bashing!
-Have fun!

If you have any questions, comments, concerns, or suggestions you can leave a comment here and I'll try to get back to you as soon as possible.

I added a "fic recommendations" tag :)

I have a lot of fics centering about the women - actually, I pretty much write about them exclusively. Would it be okay if I posted a summary of my fics?

hi, I was wondering since it doesn't say anything forth or against, linking to livejournal communities instead of dw ones? Thanks =)

I was wondering if I could promote a new community here for I would like to reach as many female character fans out there as possible. The community is [community profile] fandom20in20 & it would be great if you guys wanted to be affiliated =)

Greetings!

I'm running [community profile] spn_bitesized, a comm for comment-sized Supernatural fanworks. This week's theme, which will go live tomorrow, is Women of Supernatural. I was wondering if you'd mind me making an announcement post in [community profile] shes_awesome.

If you don't mind me making the post, I have two corollary questions:
1. Can I post the Women of Supernatural [promo] banner? Should I put it behind a cut tag or not include it?
2. What tags should I use? Or should I leave the post to you for tagging?

Awesome! I just posted - just let me know if you want me to edit anything later. I went with the basics on tags and simply tagged as "fandom: supernatural."

Hey, I'd like to promote my Star Trek ladies ficathon, and it looks like that sort of post is accepted here, but just thought I'd make sure. :)

Would affiliation between [community profile] shes_awesome and [community profile] ladiesbigbang be okay? (It's the first year for the challenge, but the hope is to make it annual.)

Hi! Two questions: First, would you have any interest in affiliating with [community profile] trek_het? Second, could I post an announcement about the new community? Thanks! :)

A question about canon / Non canon women

[personal profile] theresa_ramseyer 2022-05-10 05:07 am (UTC)(link)
Good evening - almost good morning :)

This might sound silly, but does the woman have to be a canon character? Unfortunately, the shows I write for don't have many canon women. One was almost exclusively male for many years. Many of my non-canon characters are female, could I use those if I bring in the canon characters around them?

For example, one of my NCCs is the daughter of one main canon character and my main non-canon character. Could I post something with or about either woman, daughter and/or mother, as long as at least one of the other canon characters is involved? I have a fic that I wrote a while back with the daughter, Holly. I also included another woman, a waitress, whose name has slipped my mind. Plus I had a canon character, Mickey. The fic is a conversation mainly between Holly and Mickey. Would that fic be allowed?

I understand that the community is for showing off the underused canon characters, but I'm having trouble connecting with them, and there are so few ... I'm not really sure what to do.

Thanks,
Theresa
(I'm trying again to get back to writing and posting.)
