  • We'll put up a beta claiming post beginning on September 17, 2017 and make sure you get the beta reader of your dreams (or someone close to that.)

And, before you sign up...


Be sure that you have read:

☆ SIGN UP FORM ☆


Name/Pseudonym: (required) This is the username that will be attached to your fic, and the name we'll give credit to your fic for.
*** if you wish to remain anonymous throughout the duration of this event, please let us know
E-mail: (required) An account that you check regularly.
Additional Contact Info: We would HIGHLY APPRECIATE a link to an external/social networking account if possible, though it is still entirely optional. We will also include any contact info you provide us to link to your other websites in our eventual index of participants, if given permission.
I have read and agreed to the the event/website terms & conditions: (required) We do this because we are hosting the website for publishing, and therefore it comes with its own rules as it exists, which also includes how and that we are posting the submissions. This is not to say that you have no control, but as we exist as a pseudo anthology it is important to note the intention of our website and how it functions. (It's pretty much the same as any other big bang challenge not hosted on AO3.)
Are you planning on using a WIP? (optional)
Do you know what fandom/pairing you're writing for yet? (optional)




ANONYMOUS COMMENTING IS ON.
You do not need a Dreamwidth account to sign up or participate.

(I hope this is the right place to post this and that the mods see it)
I've decided to back out of the challenge; too many other projects going on right now, unfortuantely, but I wish the best of luck to all the participants and the mods.
