Schitt's Creek Frozen Over Fest 2025

❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️

Salutations, Frans!

Winter weather is swiftly descending on Schitt's Creek, so bust out your laptops and hot cocoa and get ready for another year of Frozen Over!

Frozen Over is a prompt fest (not an exchange) for Schitt’s Creek fanworks inspired by that time of year when the creek is frozen over. All types of AO3-supported fanworks are welcome! Prompting will begin October 15 at noon!

Important Dates: (all times Eastern)

Prompts Submitted: October 15 - October 31, noon

Claiming Prompts: October 31 - December 14 (please note that any claims made prior to noon EST on October 31 will be removed to give everyone a fair shot!)

Posting Deadline: December 14 at 11:59pm

Fanworks Released: Daily at noon beginning December 17

Creators Revealed: Noon on December 24

How to Participate:

I want to participate as a writer! Awesome! Once the collection opens for prompting on October 15, leave all the prompts that your heart desires, then come back after noon on October 31 or later to claim the prompts you want to fill. We will have catch-all prompts, too, if you want to work from a separate, original idea.

I want to participate as a podficcer or a fanartist! Yay! We love this journey for you. Message us here on tumblr and, if possible, we'll connect you with a writer! We will have catch-all prompts, too, if you want to submit your own original fanart or podfic of an existing winter-themed fic.

Wait – I'm a writer, and I'd love to have a podfic or fanart created to go with my Frozen Over 2025 work! Cool! Send us a message and, if possible, we'll connect you with a podficcer and/or artist!

Can I leave prompts even if I'm not contributing to the fest myself? Yes! But we'd love it if you considered contributing, too! (No pressure, of course.)

I love making these things 💙🖤

Thought I’d share a peek behind the curtains of my origami version of Stevie’s winter coat. Or Stevie’s Stupid Fucking Winter Coat as I came to curse it. Try as I might, I could not find an origami tutorial for anything approximating a gigantic puffy hooded winter coat, so I had to start from scratch. And it did not go well. 🤣🤣🤣

Behold:

😬 😬 😬

Perhaps not completely horrendous as a stand alone piece... but it was all together too much hood while stood next to the empty spaces of where David’s and Patrick’s heads would be. 

So back to the drawing board. From that to this (still too hooded) attempt that I abandoned before even completing:

To what would become the final design with the hood down:

A design I struggled to recreate with my final paper choice because I am a chaotic mess who didn’t adequately document how I made it in the first place. 

But I got close enough to it with this, I think. 

If I wasn’t so enamored with Stevie’s adorable tiny hat I probably would have chucked it in and just made David's and Patrick’s outfits. 

Welcome to December, friends!

There are so many wonderful things to celebrate this time of year and the coven hopes that you get to experience all the joy and warmth your hearts can handle.

Our First Friday Fic Rec is a little different this time around. We want to recommend that you to check out all of the new works that are being posted for @scfrozenover​!

You can find this year’s offerings at Frozen Over 2022. Be sure to leave some love for the creators! 

If you want to keep those festive feels going, you can visit past year’s collections, too. Spread some cheer with comments and kudos on older fics!

This month gets crazy on the farm, so the witches will be taking a bit of a break. We’ll be answering asks as we have time, but this will be our only official rec list for December.

If one thing is for certain, David Rose is not in New York anymore.

Sure, he knew that, but when his boyfriend mentioned that he and his fellow band members, Ted and Twyla, as well as their manager Rachel, were heading back to their Canadian hometown for the annual holiday charity concert, he pictured a charming Toronto suburb, not the middle of fucking nowhere. There are cows out here.

Patrick and his indie band head back to their hometown to perform for the annual holiday charity concert, and David tags along, even though they are still keeping their relationship a secret.

This is my fic for @scfrozenover! I hope to explore the indie band Patrick universe a little bit more and write a prequel to this someday.

Happy Monday after (American) Thanksgiving, friends! We hope you are all recovering from the holiday (either Thanksgiving or Smutsgiving, whichever you celebrate!) well. This week, in anticipation of the upcoming Frozen Over fics, we have a few festive works from Frozen Overs past, and a few non-festive works as well! We hope you enjoy and as always, if you enjoy the fics, leave the authors some love!

David just always knew that Santa wasn’t real.

Adelina had tried her best to make up for lost ground with the Rose children, including celebrating special childhood holiday traditions. When a visit to a mall Santa goes a little sideways, a kind boy and some Christmas magic prove that even if it takes a few decades for it to happen, David can have everything he has always wanted.
