The average request is:
Characters/Pairings you want the story to focus in.
Characters/Pairings you want in the story too.
Things you want: setting, timeline, quotes, specific objects...
Things you don’t want: characters, pairings, angst, fluff...
Extras: highest rating, genre...
Make sure the request fits the author.
- THANK YOU to everyone who said yes to the back-up question. *hugs* I hope I won't have to knock your doors, but it's a real relief to know someone can help if needed.
d) Yes, you can have the same request for two (or the three) authors.
e) I’d like your replies by Monday (2nd) night.
f) The ‘official deadline’ is December 1st. However, you can email me the link to your betaed story and I’ll link to it from the masterlist.
Have fun! (I know I do. *G*)
I delete authors from the list as they get four fitting requests, so please make sure your choice is still up for grabs before you post - or I'll tell you to choose again. Thank you!
