Many thanks to everyone who participated this year! I really appreciate everyone who sent in submissions. I can hardly wait to read them. :D

Please remember to take a look at this year's submissions!

I've put together a feedback form, and if anybody has input/suggestions for how to run it next year, I'd love to hear it.

Or you can just toss a comment in this entry. ;)

Thanks again!

Deadline Reminder

Just a reminder that there are a few days left to send in your submissions.

The last day to post is May 19th. Posting will close on May 20th.

Typically I close posting at around 7AM Eastern Time - or more realistically, whenever I happen to wake up. ;) There might be a little bit of wiggle room, but please do not plan around that.

Let me know if you have any questions or concerns about the deadline or anything else. Thanks!

Admin Update: Posting opening soon + A few notes

Hi everyone! Posting will be open soon, and I'm going to put the posting guidelines up before they open. But first, here are some things to keep in mind.

* You can post any time between May 08 and May 19. Submitting will close on May 20.

* If your submission is R-18, your official submission must be posted to the Dreamwidth community instead of as a submission to the Tumblr blog. This is because of Tumblr's policies. R-18 submissions will be included in the final submission list as usual. If you need help learning how to post to DW, please contact the fest mod.

* The fest now has two collections on Archive of Our Own:

* The collection for the 2019 fest is here. It will open for submissions after posting opens (May 08).

* The collection for works from 2012-2016 is here. It is permanently open for submissions. You can add works from the 2012-2016 fests at any time by going to the collection page and selecting "post to collection". If you want to add an already-posted work to the collection, you can do this by editing the work, scrolling down to "Add to collection", and typing in the collection name.

That's all for now! Posting guidelines will be up in a day or two. If there are any questions, please reply to this post or contact the fest mods at the fest tumblr.

2019 - Signups Closed

Okay, signups are now closed! Thanks to everyone who signed up. :D

As a reminder, posting opens on May 8th, so you have over a month to work on your fic/art.

Posting guidelines for submitting your work to the tumblr blog/Dreamwidth community will be put up closer to the 8th. For now, there is one thing that I'd like to specify, on account of Tumblr's crackdown on content:

If you're planning to submit R-18 fanwork, please prepare to post your submission to the Dreamwidth community rather than as a submission to the fest tumblr. You can of course crosspost to your own tumblr if you're willing to take the risk, but I ask that all official submissions to the fest be put on DW if they have R-18 content.

These works will of course still be included in the master list, and ratings for everything will be clearly marked.

That's all for now; please feel free to send a message if there are any questions about this or anything else.

Nordipalooza 2019: Introduction and Guidelines

Welcome to the Nordipalooza Fanwork Fest!


What is Nordipalooza?

Nordipalooza is a prompt-based fest for fanfic and fanart centred around the Nordic Five characters from Hetalia. This year, the fest will be held on both Dreamwidth and Tumblr.

Fanwork centring on the themes of family, friendship, rivalry, historical, and romantic situations are all equally encouraged!

Each person who signs up is given a list of four prompts. Each prompt contains two randomly-assigned Nordic characters, one simple theme, and two optional historical time periods to use as extra inspiration.

If you have signed up for this fest before, you're welcome to make fanwork based on prompts you received for previous rounds, provided you send in a signup for this round too.
