4th Annual Spring Fic Exchange: Posting Schedule and Guidelines
banner by dizzojay
Well, we were supposed to start posting today, but we are all running a bit behind, even your beloved mods. So the posting has been pushed back to start next Monday, June 8th.
Based on the feedback received from most of you (for which I’m grateful), this is the posting scheduled developed. I did my best to accommodate everyone's requests.
However, I still need everyone to check-in, both authors and artists to make sure you know that you have seen and acknowledge your posting date(s). In the comments, please acknowledge that you have noted your posting date and if your story and art will be ready to post on that day. If you have problems with where you are on the schedule, please let me know now! We will work with you. On that subject, if you feel you'll be ready to post before your scheduled posting date, let me know that as well - that will help me in shifting the schedule if need be. I am hoping that because many of you checked in before the scheduled was developed, there will be minimal need to re-arrange the schedule.
A few other notes:
A) If your recipient has dropped out of the fic exchange, you will be gifting your fic to spn_bigpretzel, and that is noted in the posting schedule below
B) I have a pinch hitter that has just joined the clubfireheart13 (YAY--Thank you!!!). I will be looking for an artist shortly, after giving fireheart13 time to write a offer a potential artist something to work with, but if there is any interest, go ahead a PM me or fireheart13 now.
C) Thank you, thank you, thank you to all of you artists who picked up two or three stories--YOU ROCK!! And Welcome to all of the new artists who signed up this year--thank you for helping us out as well. We are nice and don't bite, I promise.We are a pretty fun bunch and we hope you enjoy it here.

And now for the posting guidelines:
Feel free to post your fic and art directly to the comm or post a link back to your own personal journal. Links to entries at your personal journal cannot be f-locked as we want your recipient as well as other comm members to be able to enjoy the story and art. Please, do not crosspost to other comms until after June 27th.
There are no real rules for what time to post your fic/art. As long as it is your posting date (wherever you are in the world) feel free to post. also, if you are pressed for time on your posting date, remember that you can use LJ's scheduled posts feature. You may use any standard header, but here's an example:
Recipient:
Author:
Artist:
Title:
Summary:
Characters/Pairings:
Rating:
Warnings/Spoilers (if applicable):
Wordcount:
Also, please tag your fic appropriately, including the "fic exchange" tag as well as the appropriate author and artist tag. If you are new to the comm and/or do not have an artist or author tage, please leta mod know so we can add a tag for you.
Comm Members: Remember to give both the author and the artist some love for all the hard work they've put in. Comments are love! I'm so excited to see the results :D
