eatingcroutons Posted March 2, 2019 Posted March 2, 2019 While I had a fair bit of criticism for how the Carnival of Aros kicked off, I'm a big believer in being the positive change you want to see in the world. To that end, @bydontost and I volunteered to host the March 2019 Carnival of Aros at our new Dreamwidth community, https://aromanticism.dreamwidth.org/! The call for submissions and full details are here, but the theme we've chosen is It's great to be aro! and the prompts we've suggested to kick things off are: A time I was glad I was aro Reasons I love my identity The best thing about the aro community What things have improved for aros? How can we improve aro experiences even more? Of course you're not just limited to these exact prompts - anything you want to create about the positive sides of being aro is welcome. You can also post anywhere you like - just drop us a link by commenting on the call for submissions (no account required) and we'll make sure to promote your submission and include it in the end-of-month round-up!

From the details linked in the first post: What's a blogging festival? It's an event where people are encouraged to create and share content related to prompts on a given topic. As the hosts we'll be promoting everyone's content here on this blog, and at the end of the month we'll post a round-up collection of everything that has been submitted. If you want to make a submission but don't have your own blog/website to post something, feel free to send it to me or @bydontost and we'll post it for you on Dreamwidth
