Everywoman is on for 2024 (and nominations are open *now*)

To my surprise -- though it should not have been as these are exactly the same dates as last year -- [community profile] everywoman, the annual fanfic exchange for stories starring women characters, popped up on Saturday evening at full speed:
  • Nominations: June 1 (yesterday) - June 9 (one week from today)
  • Sign-ups: June 10 - June 21
  • Assignments out: June 23
  • Assignments due: July 25
  • Works revealed: August 1
  • Authors revealed: August 8
Folks may nominate up to 10 fandoms, with up to 10 characters or groups each. To facilitate matching, nominated groups are specifically denoted "and" (not "&" or "/"); the requirement is that a story include both characters, and it's up to the writer, with due respect to the requester, how.

As you may remember, [community profile] everywoman is a spiritual successor to now-defunct exchange games like Femme_fic and Rarewomen > Rarelywritten. Its definition of "female characters" is very generously broad, but there are limits, so check the rules if you have an extreme edge case.

Addendum: I've now nominated D&DC, HL, and JttW to help seed the tagset. I'll add more later.
