sueducing_ladiesRules:
1. Be excellent to each other. Mary Sue writing is, I think, usually very close to the id. This makes it easily mockable from the outside and very tender from the inside. Respect other people's fantasies. As the Dalai Lama says, "Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible." You are not required to like everything posted here; you are asked to refrain from bashing.
2. This is a low-to-no-pressure fest. No sign-ups, no check-ins, no drop-out-notifications. Write as much or as little as you'd like, comment or don't on other people's contributions - it's all good.
3. If your fic contains non-consensual (or dubiously consensual) sex, torture, or character death, you must warn for it. If you think some of the contents of your fic may be triggering, please err on the safe side and warn for them as well.amadi has an easy way to make your posted warnings skipable posted here.
4. Other rules to be added as situations arise.
Requirements:
Fics submitted for this fest must include a f/f pairing as the main 'ship and an OFC. Beyond that, it's up to you. Both fictional canons and RPSF are fine as sources. Your OFC(s) can be an obvious self-insertion, like the super-powered woman you would be in a universe with magic/advanced science/whatever, you and your BFF ... you get the idea, OR she can be a totally original character not based on you/a particular individual. Similarly, you can ship your Sue with a female canon character or have her be the friend who gets two ladies together. And she can be the product of any kind of wish-fulfillment you want!
For example, I personally am thinking of giving my Sue some land in the country where she can raise organic crops that never get bugs or diseases, some extremely well-behaved dogs frolic, and there is always tea available in her cozy-yet-spacious house. And lots of pie, which can be consumed in copious amounts without any unsatisfactory side effects.
