D/Hr Advent 2011 was the first time all three of us mod-ed and it has been a wonderful and learning experience for us. The fest started later than usual this year and so there were time-constraints in the part of the participants as well as the moderators. We’re very thankful that everyone has been understanding regarding this.

Thank you to everyone who was a part of D/Hr Advent 2011. Everyone’s contributions, from our authors and artists, readers and reviewers, and the betas and brit-pickers who appeared in works’ notes, helped make D/Hr Advent 2011 a wonderful fest.

Recs
D/Hr Advent is still looking for recs! If you've rec'd any D/Hr Advent art or fiction on your journal (LiveJournal, Dreamwidth, InsaneJournal) or in any un-locked post or comment, we'd love to know! Leave us a comment on this post or email dhradvent@gmail.com with a link to the rec.

Cross-archiving
D/Hr Advent is affiliated with Hawthorn & Vine, a Draco/Hermione exclusive archive. If you are a H&V member and wish to submit your D/Hr Advent work to H&V, D/Hr Advent has a dedicated sub-category under LJ Communities at dhr_advent.

We anticipate that the D/Hr Advent 2011 collection on Archive of Our Own (AO3) will not be accessible on December 25th, due to Yuletide.

Yuletide is an annual small fandoms fic exchange. Yuletide has averaged about two thousand participants per round over the last few years, and it is currently hosted on AO3. The AO3 servers tend to go down on December 25th, the date of Yuletide reveals, due to the rush of people attempting to read the newly revealed stories. The site may become unstable as early as December 24th.

AO3 servers should be accessible again by December 26th or December 27th. We will hold off posting the D/Hr Advent 2011 master list until the AO3 servers are mostly accessible.

Yuletide always has some spectacular stories, and you're bound to find something to your taste. If you're not familiar with the exchange, check out the fandoms in this year's exchange and the Yuletide 2011 works on or after December 25th!
