Sign ups are now OPEN for Round 4.
Latest submission date is Sunday 30th March, midnight Greenwich Mean Time. Assignments should be with you by 23 February latest.
If you are in any doubt of meeting it or need to drop out, please let one of the mods know *straight away* so we can reassign. If you are going to be only a little late submitting, please let us know either in a comment to this post or via PM/mods email account (acdholmesfestmods@gmail.com), letting us know how near it is to ready, and we'll offer an extension, but you must commit to meet this or all our hair will spontaneously go white and drop out, possibly not in that order.
Offers of pinch hitters gratefully received now or in future
Posting (anon) starts on Monday 7 April. End of posting depends on how many participants we get. Reveal 48 hours later.

Type of work(s) you are willing to offer: e.g. fic, podfic, art, icons [minimum 10 icons please]. We have no minimum word limit for fics but something reasonably substantial, i.e. over 1,000 words, would be nice.
What you are comfortable working with as a creator: - e.g. gen, het, slash, particular pairings/multiples, casefic, humour, h/c, angst, preferred tropes or kinks [please list], etc: we encourage as much latitude as possible to make it easier to match and because variety is good.
What you would definitely prefer NOT to work with: - as above
What you would like to receive: - type(s) of fanwork, preferences as above
What you would definitely NOT enjoy receiving: - exclusions as above
Any other information you would like to add:
Whether, if needed, you could offer to pinch hit to avoid someone being disappointed:
Crossovers are welcome, but there must be majority ACD Holmes content, please.
Icons or macros - may be based on any of the original illustrations to the ACD stories - not just Sidney Paget's. Camden House has a very full collection.
For all other comm rules, please see the profile page

Type of work(s) you are willing to offer: art – can be either something you wish for in your signup or an illustration of your fic (in case you're a writer), your OTP, character portraits, ...
What you are comfortable working with as a creator: I'm not good at drawing something extremely explicit. Preferably H and/or W centric. I like to do fluffy from time to time, but would rather do something with an earnest or angsty touch this time.
What you would definitely prefer NOT to work with: mpreg, AUs other than Steampunk or Lovecraftian
What you would like to receive: Fic, please. H/W gen or slash, (Holmes/other canon or original male character is fine, too). Victorian attitudes (including unhealthy ones), understatement, people having feelings they are unable to acknowledge/express, pining, UST, RST, h/c, people not liking themselves for whatever reason, addiction, fear of being found out, blackmail... Please note that though I enjoy these things, don't feel obliged to include many/all of them in your fic. Just go where the muse carries you. Oh, and you don't have to think up casefic for me either, if that's not what comes easily to you.
All Ratings. You can go as dark and kinky as you feel comfortable with (though not required) -- endings on a happy or hopeful note preferred, though.
What you would definitely NOT enjoy receiving: see above
Any other information you would like to add: Hello again everybody, thanks for spreading the ACD love!
Whether, if needed, you could offer to pinch hit to avoid someone being disappointed: Possibly.
