ONE MONTH UNTIL DEADLINE:
It is July 27th in the U.S., so that means there is ONE MONTH left of writing before stories are due. All assignments should be complete and uploaded no later than August 27 at midnight EDT. There will be time after that for edits, but stories should have a beginning, middle and end by then. (And we will be checking for placeholders or incomplete stories.) Instructions on how to post your story are available in this post.
BETA READERS:
While we do not require stories to have a beta reader, we strongly recommend it. In case you do not have someone to beta read for you, you can ask for help here. Or if you'd like to volunteer your services as a beta reader, you can post here as well.
If you're volunteering as a beta, please comment here! Tell us:
If you're looking for a beta, you can leave an anonymous comment here listing the fandoms you need help with. DO NOT REVEAL YOUR INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT.
Anonymous comments will be unscreened and can be replied to by beta volunteers with their contact info.
If you're looking for a beta and are worried about revealing your assignment, you can email the mods and we'll act as go-between on your behalf.
We hope everyone is enjoying the writing process so far, but if you need any assistance, feel free to comment here or e-mail us and we'll do what we can.
