[admin] Writers - Sign up, rules, and deadlines.
Challenge Rules for Writers
1. Stories must have a minimum length of 20,000 words. There is no maximum length.
2. Stories may be any genre: gen, het, boyslash, or girlslash.
3. The story's central element must relate to House, MD, and its characters. Crossovers and alternate universes are permitted.
4. Stories will be posted to a central site on the day the challenge goes live, with links to the summaries in this community for feedback, but afterwards may be posted to your personal journal or site.
5. The stories MAY NOT be posted, in whole or in part, prior to March 30, 2008. You may, of course, share with betas, but please keep your story under wraps as much as possible, so that the artists/vidders can make their choices anonymously when the time comes.
6. All stories must be betaed before final posting.
Important Deadlines
1. Sign-ups close at 5 PM, MST, September 15.
2. You must have a draft completed by February 15, 2008. This is important so that we know you will be finished, and your work can be given to the artists and/or vidders.
3. February 15 through February 21, summaries of the fics will be posted as an anonymous list of prompts for artists/vidders to claim.
4. March 25, final drafts and final art/vids must be completed.
5. The challenge site and the links to stories, art, and vids goes live on March 30, 2008.
SIGN-UPS
Copy the coding from the box below, and paste it into a comment. Then fill out.
For example, your sign-up might look like:
LJ username:![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
queenzulu
Author name: Zulu
Email where we can reach you: zulu.fic@gmail.com
General outline of what you might write (this is NOT binding, but give us an idea): Something in the Percussion-verse, House/Foreman, medical plot and personal drama.
Gen, het, boyslash or girlslash? Boyslash, maybe some secondary het pairings.
In case you'd love to participate but don't have any ideas, there will be a prompt post available in a few days' time.
We know some people will sign-up and not be able to meet the deadline, or not be able to write 20K. That's okay! If you finish something later or shorter, there'll still be great fic to read. If you don't make the first draft deadline, the only thing that happens is you can't participate in the art/vid portion of Big Bang and you won't be part of the Official Big Bang master list and website posting or be able to post to this comm.
Sign up! Take a chance. You never know what you can accomplish if you try!
