Artists and Beta Readers, Make Your Claim!
Okay, we're going to go ahead and get this party started. Keep an eye on this post because summaries will be going up throughout the day. (Writers, please get your Summaries to me asap.)
Artists and Beta Readers, read through the summaries and claim which story you want. At this time, you'll be claiming one. Just comment on this post with the number you want.
Also, if anyone knows of any art communities I could advertise to, please let me know.
Let the claims begin!
1) doesn't have a title yet
Fandom: Star Trek: Deep Space 9
Type: gen
Main Original Character(s) and Her/His Face(s): Main OC is a Bajoran
woman of color named Tora Manar. I don't normally cast my OCs, not being
a visual person myself. I made a post thinking about this, with a couple
of possible candidates: http://beatrice-otter.dreamwidth.org/210605.html
The other main OC is a Vulcan named Soval. Fairly standard white Vulcan,
probably related to the Soval who was on _Enterprise_, but a very
different character.
Summary: Tora Manar grew up in the camps, during the Cardassian Occupation
of Bajor. She loves her homeworld, but now that things are looking up and
Bajor has joined the Federation she's ready to see the galaxy. But
Bajoran separatists threaten to end her Starfleet career before it can
really get started. - rainyrocket
2) Title: Blackwood Creek
Fandom: Supernatural
Type: slash
Pairing: Logan(OMC)/Jake(OMC)
Main Original Characters: Jacob "Jake" Wright- pic; Logan Taylor- pic
Summary: Jake spends the school year living a boring civilian life with his mother, but in the summer he goes to Blackwood Creek, a sort of summer camp for hunters' children where they learn the tricks of the trade. This year, there's a new camper at Blackwood Creek: a boy named Logan who has assisted his father on many hunts but is being left behind on a truly dangerous one. Jake, who has never actually hunted before, idolizes Logan, but Logan sees Jake as a naive child. Then Logan's father stops answering his calls, and Logan attempts to run away from Blackwood Creek to find him. Jake, seeing an opportunity to prove his hunting ability to Logan and to himself, forces Logan to let him go along. Can these two half-trained boys survive their first unaided hunt?
Other:
Betas- You don't need to have more than a passing familiarity with the fandom for this. Just enough to know what hunters are/do, maybe not even that because it's mostly explained in the story. Canon characters and events are only mentioned maybe twice in passing. It centers completely on original characters.
Artists- The "actors" I chose for my characters were picked randomly, and there aren't a lot of photos of them that I can find, so manips are probably out. I'm working on character drawings and hope to have them done by the time I submit my rough draft. I'll be linking to a couple more actual real-person images with them.

3) Title: Blast Radius
Fandom: Stargate SG-1
Type: Het
Pairing: OMC/OFC
Main Original Character(s) and Her/His Face(s): Annelise Marsters
(http://pics.livejournal.com/goldjadeocean/pic/0002r3qb/g11) and
Spencer Griffith
(http://s991.photobucket.com/albums/af37/goldjadeocean/Almost%20Griffiths/)
Summary:
The year of SG-1's first mission, Ann Marsters was a moody artistic
child prodigy and a military brat who thought that her father's
reassignment from Germany to Cheyenne Mountain would keep him safe,
not kill him mysteriously. Spencer Griffith was a young, bright
fourth-degree cadet at the Air Force Academy, carrying the banner of a
sprawling military family.
The year of Anubis's defeat, Spencer killed his first man in combat
outside of Kandahar. Ann spent six months spying for the Trust before
she decided she'd picked the losing team, but turning information over
to the SGC didn't keep her from joining the rest of her Trust cell as
goa'uld hosts.
Five years later, Ann's got her body back and is trying to convince
herself she screwed up once and paid the price, and should just walk
away from the Stargate for good. Spencer's back in Cheyenne Mountain
for his second tour on SG-13.

4) Title: Coming Full Circle
Fandom: Primeval
Type: Het
Pairing (if any): Kahlil Pierce/Nicole "Niki" Becker
Main Original Character(s) and Her/His Face(s): Kahlil Pierce -- Alexander Siddig and Niki Becker -- Sophia Bush
Summary of about 3 to 5 lines telling us what the story is about. Being in love with the daughter of Captain Becker, Abby Maitland and Connor Temple isn't easy. It's even harder when you're the exact image of your uncle -- a man who hurt them more than anyone else ever has. However, Kahlil Pierce hasn't let that deter him -- especially when he knows that Niki Becker loves him just as much. When Niki doesn't return with the rest of her team after an excursion through an anomaly, Kahlil doesn't stop to think before he goes in to look for her. Finding his injured girlfriend was the easy part. Trapped on the wrong side of anomaly with no way to get home, Kahlil has to use all of his skills to keep Niki safe while at the same time having faith that her family will find a way to bring them home. - azarsuerte
5) Title: Storm Front
Fandom: The Dresden Files
Type: Het
Pairing: female!Dresden/Marcone
Main Original Character(s) and Her/His Face: Malcolm (Dresden's son) - Thomas Dekker, around age 8
Other Characters - female!Harry Dresden - Paget Brewster, Marcone - Adrian Pasdar
Summary: For just under a decade, its been Harry and her son Malcolm. They have a pretty good life. She's a wizard, he's the responsible adult, and Bob's the pervy skull in the basement. It's a good life, but then people start dying, more people think Harry's doing the killing, and the only one who doesn't is the underworld kingpin Gentleman Johnny Marcone.
