Author Sign-up Post 2012
AUTHOR SIGN UPS ARE NOW CLOSED!
We're open to any and all pairings here, and pretty much any idea sounds like a good one to us. These are the basic guidelines that you'll have to follow while writing, but pretty much anything else is a go:
-10,000 words is the minimum length for each story. There is no upper limit. Stories can be written with a partner or by a group; the minimum word count is still 10,000 words, no matter how many people are involved.
-Stories must have at least one beta reader. If you don't have a beta reader, check out the beta post and see if anyone there fits your needs.
-This challenge is for new stories. If your story has appeared online in its entirety, it's not eligible for marvel-bang. If you want to complete something you've already started, that's fine, but at least 7,500 words of it must be new, never posted material.
-Sequels are great! If you write a sequel to something you've written in the past, include a link to the original story in your author's notes, so people can read from the beginning if they haven't already.
-If you need some inspiration, check out the prompt post. Take the prompts as literally or as figuratively as you want - use part of one, use three or four, use half of one and half of another. It's entirely up to you.
-In order for your story to qualify for this challenge, you cannot post it anywhere online until the due date. On that day, you can post it wherever you'd like - LiveJournal, Dreamwidth, AO3, your personal website, or anywhere else - and link to it here. Just don't put it up before the reveal. (Posting details will be given closer to that time.)
-Rough drafts are due on 7 September. A rough draft is a document with a beginning, middle, and end; it must be at least 80% complete (with the unfinished parts at least sketched out). It does not have to be beta read at this point. Completed stories are due on 21 October and posting will start on 24 October.
-You can sign up to write two stories for this challenge. These can be individual or group sign-ups. (To clarify, you can sign up twice by yourself, or once by yourself and once as part of a group, or twice as part of a group.) Just make sure to complete a separate sign-up for each story.
If you'd like to sign up as an author, fill out the form below. Be sure to join and friend this community - all check-ins and reminders will come through here, so you'll have to watch us to stay informed.
Sign ups close 15 June.
