Do you read fanfic? Have you seen the new school stories ficathon?

I do read it - I saw a group on dreamwidth start to gather together possible books to work from, but it seemed to me to be heading towards general children's lit rather than school stories and I stopped following it. I should go and see if it's developed.

Hmm, I've seen several kidlit focathons but I thought I'd seen a school story-a-thon very recently, possibly the last week, but I can't remember where.

It was probably this one - last time I checked it was filling up with stuff I don't think of as school story, but now it seems to be moving on and there are more school story things in the requests.

There's also girlycon which seems to be covering the same sort of territory?

Oh, I haven't seen that before! Thanks for the link. It's mostly non-UK books from what I can make out, which is really interesting. (Though really, I think "girly" and its ilk are forever tainted after the third wave critiques I've been reading.)

It doesn't look familiar and I don't know anyone involved but the maintainer might've changed the profile and people drop out of coms.

Not that I'd dream of tormenting you with the existence of a rumoured all-girl secret society which you can't join because you're not in with the in-crowd, obvz. ;-)
