Fic Submissions and Headers
Apparently it's time to put out this post, since I've already (!!!!) received fic submissions. Please don't worry if you're not as keen and haven't begun writing. Just refer back to this post when you're ready to send the fics to me.
Just as a note, if you're so inspired by your prompts that you feel that one fic isn't enough, feel free to write more. Also feel free to write as many words as you like (though if your fic breaches about the 10-11K word mark, could you please split it into parts, otherwise LJ may not let me post it). However, only one fic of 500+ words is actually necessary, so please don't feel obliged to write multiple. Also, please don't feel as if you have to write everything that was included in the request you've been assigned; you are allowed to pick and choose.
IMPORTANT: When you email me your fic at queen_of_the_castle_77 @ hotmail.com , please make sure that you've already included any html tags for italics, bold, etc yourself (I won't do it for you). You can send fics in .doc, .docx, .rtf or .txt files. If, for some reason, it's not possible for you to send the fic in one of these types of files, please email me and we can work something out. Also, could you please include the following header:
To: [your recipient's LJ name]
From: [your LJ name, for my reference and to be added once author reveals are posted]
Title:
Characters and/or Pairings:
Rating:
Warnings: [you must warn for things like non-con, torture, etc. The rest I leave up to you.]
Summary:
Notes: [not necessary to include Author's Notes, but you can if you like, as long as they don't give your identity away]
Word Count:
Addendum: I forgot to mention this initially, because I wasn't thinking, but an email just brought it to my attention. If you have a beta, I'm very happy for you to thank or just list them in your fic header (either in your 'Notes' section or by inserting a separate 'Beta' category). However, I would ask for the sake of maintaining anonymity that you ask your beta in advance if they'd mind being referred to simply by an initial or something until author reveals go out, at which time I'd substitute their full LJ name or penname into the post at the same time I put in the author names. We're a tight-knit enough group that in some cases the identity of someone's beta/s is a dead giveaway of the author's identity, so this would make it easier to keep things supa-sekrit. :D
