How to submit your rough draft and summary

How to submit your rough draft and summary


Here is the information on how to turn in your Pros Big Bang story draft and summary. Those of you who have participated in previous years will find that the submission information is entirely unchanged, but here it is again.

Please create two separate files. One file should contain your rough draft and the other your summary. We ask that you use the following naming convention:

prosbigbang_roughdraft_yourname.doc

prosbigbang_summary_yourname.doc

So if I were submitting, my files would be named prosbigbang_roughdraft_krisser.doc and prosbigbang_summary_krisser.doc.

File format: As suggested by the naming template, we would prefer to receive your files in Microsoft Word .doc format (NOT .docx, which is what newer Word versions produce by default; Word will still save .doc files, though). If .doc is not possible for you, we also accept .rtf (Rich Text Format) and .txt (plaintext).

Send your two files to the Pros Big Bang email address: prosbigbangtwo@gmail.com

The deadline: Midnight, July 1, PDT

(Pacific Daylight Time is GMT-7 hours.)

If you need to familiarize yourself with the draft/summary requirements, you can find them in previos post.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at the above email address, or you can PM any one of the mods.

Once we have all your files, we will be removing identifying information and posting summaries for artist claims on July 9.

Good luck, writers! :)

As a cheerleader, I don't know what to say to encourage all the writers at this point as I've never been in your particular shoes and on a deadline like this. But projecting into your place, I'm gonna say that that this is just a rough draft and a summary that does not have to be polished. Maybe some bits will just be in a general idea form that can be worked out a bit more fully later.

Even if it seems that the deadlines are rushing toward you, I have faith that it will all come together because I've read so many amazing stories put out by The Big Bang in years past.

Y'all got this! I know you do! (Imagine bands playing, fireworks going off, hands clapping, high kicks, etc.)
