Rules for authors

» Your story must have a minimum length of 10,000 words.
» You can only write a story or create art, not both.
» All genres are accepted; slash, het, gen, AU, RPF/RPS, femslash, etc.
» Your story must center around 1 or more characters from The Vampire Diaries.
» Both the books' canon and the television show's canon applies.
» Crossovers are ok, but the story must center around a character from this canon.
» RPS/RPF are ok, but 1 or more characters from this canon must be included.
» The post containing your story, on your livejournal/site, must be public.
» It's forbidden to post your story before your assigned date.

» A beta must read through your story before you post. You can request one (and/or a cheerleader) in this post and we will assign you one when someone who fits your requirements (genre, pairing, etc.) shows up. You may get in touch with someone outside of this community to be your beta and/or cheerleader as well, as long as you have your drafts read through and you feel supported.
