Spring of Women

[lattice_frames]

After a conversation about the dearth of long-form femslash and lady-centric podfic I got to thinking; what if I set a goal for myself to only produce and consume lady-centric works for the entirety of spring. Now, I've got a couple things already in the works and, to an extent, they will be my only exceptions. 

So from March 20th through June 21st I will be:

• reading fic only if the main/POV character is a woman or genderqueer
  • this will start by being limited to canon!women characters and if I start getting desperate to the end I may expand to rule 63'd canon-male characters 
  • canon!male characters who are genderqueer or trans women in the fic are also included
  • basically: no always-a-cis-girl-canon-dude fic if I can
  • eta: Oh! also not reading things where a canon!woman is rule 63'd into a dude. I will accept more women than canon, not less.
• exploring new-to-me canons or revisiting ones I haven't touched in ages that are about women. Bonus if it's about women and created by a woman/women.
• focusing on creating works that are femslash or are non-romantic and centered around a woman's story
  • this also includes art. I want to draw more women than I have lately. Ok, I want to DRAW more period, but specifically women.
• The only exceptions I will be making are:
  • editing (not recording) for my extreme podfic big bang. I've got 3 hours of audio recorded for it already and another this weekend, any more can wait to July.
  • recording and editing a ~3hr collaborative podfic with intransitive 

Anything that doesn't fall within this scope will be marked to read/download/listen later if it looks interesting enough to maybe want it in 3 months.

I'm also going to try to leave feedback beyond just kudos and possibly do round-ups of things that I've liked over the past week. But not guarantees about that.

I've got a decent idea of where I want to start but if anyone has recs for fic, podfic, or fandoms please throw them my way!

Here is my ladies tag! Note that not everything under that tag actually features female main characters--I also use it for fics that centers around dudes but gives good complex roles to ladies--but it should be apparent from the descriptions and other tags which ones are all about the ladies.
