Hi all.. . the time grows near . . .to begin thinking about . . .yes, you must think about . . Submitting Your Drafts!


As we are now getting ever closer to our deadline of 23rd September we thought we'd put up the details of what you need to do to submit your stories and art.

Writers

Send your completed story to the following email address:


prosbigbangtwo@gmail.com





Please use the following naming convention for the file:


prosbigbang_yourname_storytitle.doc






We're expecting that your draft is complete at this point, though you can definitely tweak before your posting date.

Artists

Please send the rough draft of your art to the same addresses above. It's not necessary to have completed art by this point (though that would be lovely) but we would like to know that you're on the way to finishing.

Writers and Artists

Since our next step is to create the posting schedule, please let us know if there are any dates that we should absolutely avoid giving you.

We want to make sure everyone has a date they're comfortable with, and one on which they can easily get their story or art up.

We’ll do our best to accommodate any requests, but we’d like everyone to appreciate that we're aiming to spread the stories out as evenly as possible throughout the month.

Next steps

Once we have everyone's stories and art, we will be putting together the posting schedule. And when that's done, we'll be emailing everyone their posting date, along with details of how to create a post at ci5_boxoftricks with links to whichever location you’ve chosen to post your story and art to (LJ, Dreamwidth, The Automated Hatstand, AO3, etc).

Drop us a line at the address above if you have any questions or issues.

Thanks once again to everyone for participating. We can't wait to see everyone's contributions to the challenge.

I would like a posting date in the first week of October since I am going away on October 10 and will be busy through the 18th.

For the 9/23 deadline - we need to see that you have enough words (and I know you do!) and that you have a good idea (a general outline) of how you're going to wrap it up. You then have until your posting date to "tweak" it into submission :-)

Do you have a preference on a date that you'd like to post? (Make sure your artist agrees.)

I’m at 17,500 and just writing the last scene up. It has been beteaed as we go. I would like to request a later posting date if possible.

I’ll probably make over 20,000 so would like a little extra time to tweak. I have contacted my artist.

OK - We'll schedule for the last week in October. A more specific date will follow when we hear from the other writers.

Thank you. The story turned into a bit of a monster. May end up being like 25,000 when it’s all said and done.
