Rules:
Rules for fics:
* Minimum word count for a fic is 2000 words. If your fic is shorter than that, but you feel that's the way it should be, email us and we'll discuss it.
* Your fic should be beta read and free of spelling and grammar issues. We will be fixing the occasional typo, but if there are obvious spelling issues or the correct canon spelling is disregarded, we will the fic back for editing. (For canon spellings you can check the Harry Potter Lexicon). Americanisms will not be considered mistakes.
* Fics cannot be part of a series you are writing, or be a sequel/prequel to one of your fics (or anyone else's).
* The rating for the fic should not be higher than the one specified by the giftee. Other than that, there are no rating restrictions.
* The HTML formatting tags should be included in the file you send. (more details in the submission guidelines that will be posted later)

Rules for art:
* Artists have no minimum requirement, but your work should be more complex than a sketch
* Should not make reference to another piece of yours.
* The rating should not be higher than the one specified by the giftee. Other than that, there are no rating restrictions.

For all the fest rules, please read this post
