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:
prosbigbang@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).
And Bob’s your uncle
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.

Thank you for going ahead and letting us know that you're ready to go -- please let us know if there's an issue with the posting date -- and no, you don't need to send it.
We just needed to make sure that everyone was on track and we're glad to hear that it is. :D
