To clarify: if this challenge is going to allow original content, ALL creators will be able to do original content, not just writers. That would mean: reccers could rec original fic, a photographer could sign up to do picspams and picspam pictures of women they've taken themselves, podficcers could podfic original fic, artists could draw original characters, icon makers could icon any women (not just those considered as "fannish" or celebrities), meta writers could discuss womanhood not just in relation to fannish sources but a broader spectrum, etc. etc.

This will also include allowing OFCs in fiction, because I think it'd be silly to allow original content creation without allowing for original female character creation.

All opinions and thoughts welcome in the comments.

Thank you for this. I'm writing in an RPG type fandom where the characters are almost by definition 'original' even though the sandbox doesn't belong to me. Two of my four heroes are female and the Sue thing is lingering in the back of my brain and I'm getting sick of its discouraging remarks. ;)
