Final Submission Details
!! Two weeks left until the GOT2015 final deadline (Saturday December 27th, 11:59PM EST)! If you still have a lot left to write, pace yourself so you can submit on time!
FORMATTING YOUR DOCUMENT
✯ Include all necessary HTML tags! You will need to code bold, italic, and underlined text as such. Feel free to also include your own tag if you want the cut text to be something other than the first line of your story. Please do not put your whole fic into tables/divs or change the font style.
✯ .txt files are preferred. Windows users can use Notepad, Mac users can use TextEdit, or you can look for a File>Save As>Plain Text in your editor of choice (allow character substitution). If there are problems, doc/.docx or .rtf files are also fine. Google Docs links will not be accepted for final submissions.
✯ Long fic needs to be split into separate parts of less than 10,000 words each. Attach each part to your email as a separate document.
✯ Include the following header at the top of the document. If your fic is split into multiple parts, only include the header on the first part.
Title:
Pairing(s)/focus:
Rating: (G, PG, PG-13, R, or NC-17. MPAA guide here.)
Word count:
Warnings: (You MUST warn for rape, self-harm, underage sex, and major character death. Anything else is up to your discretion, but if you're unsure, err on the side of caution.)
Author's notes: (Optional)
Summary: (Try to keep it under 3-4 lines.)
✯ You can copy the heading HTML here for your convenience. Delete what's in parentheses!
