Fans of Practical Magic, fanfiction, and/or crossovers, come here.

Sooo, does anyone know the movie Practical Magic? Witches and curses and utterly fantastic women being sisters and aunts and family with all the closeness and issues that implies?

Would anyone be interested in a ficfest that is "cross over all the things and make all the awesome women in any and every fandom Owens witches"? I'm thinking either commentfest style or ficathon style.

Feel free to suggest ways it should be done, spread the word, or anything else. I want to see what kind of audience might exist for this, but even if it's a small one it might still happen. Because OWENS.

EDIT: It looks like this is happening, so please feel free to spread the word far and wide. Also please feel free to come in here and offer opinions: I'm still not sure what kind of fic fest to do, and whether it should be exclusively female-centric, or whether focus on male characters should be allowed. If you have suggestions for either of those things, I'd love to hear them.
(Note on format: Exchange-style is out because I haven't got the mental capability to deal with working that out. Pretty much anything else is fair game.)

That would be interesting, mostly because the movie itself has a lot of parts where the magic is just sort of there and doesn't require special effects or anything else.

My guess is that it would work better with a series like Gilmore Girls than with something like Charmed, but I see potential everywhere.

You know I am totally up for this. :3 I need to think of who I would do but I would od it in a heartbeat.

While I am totally in love with the Movie (and, to a lesser degree, the book), I am not sure I know it well enough to do anything.

However, the innate magic aspect is one I prefer to use in much of my original writing... with greater effects being the ones that have greater costs. But simple manipulations? It's just will and application.

*drops in from sharpeningthebones's intro-everyone-to-everyone post* I don't think I could write for such a fest but I would read the hell out of it. Also I need a copy of that movie.
