Good Evening,

I was wondering if I could pimp out camelot_drabble 3rd annual Holiday Gift Exchange in your community.

Thank You.

Are you guys planning a 2015 Big Bang? It was so fantastic you kept it alive last year.

sorry if this is a stupid question, i'm only just trying to figure out how LJ works, but are Big Bangs a yearly thing? and is the 2015 BB over?

Questions

[aelys_althea]

Hi,

I'm new to the whole BB Fest, so I'm just hashing out some details if you could let me know.

First, about the draft due on May 30th, its outlined as 15k but does that mean that, even if the story is longer than 15k it has to be a complete draft? I mean, ending and all? It's only that I have a tendency to write long - LONG - fics and at present I've written about 40K and am not even halfway yet. Do I still have to complete the entire draft to have it in the running for art?
Secondly, summaries: is this a summary of the whole story or more of a blurb sort of deal?
And finally, about the beta-ing, if no one will take it I have someone I know that is very very unlikely to sign up for the actual beta thread but might be able to do it. Is it okay if she does it for me and acts as my beta?

Sorry for the long-winded post. Hope to hear from you?
Thanks xx

Hi So sorry for the slow reply! I'm not sure how I missed this!

When you send your tough draft, it should be at least 60% complete. It should show a clear beginning, middle, and end. Any sections that are missing, please send an outline to show that you know where you are going with it.

Here is an awesome post with very useful information to help get your summary claimed by an artist:

I hope it helps!

You can use any beta. The beta signups are just there to help people who don't have a beta to find one. Your beta is not required to signup at all!

That's okay! I'm sure it just slipped under the radar :)

Awesome, that's everything I needed to know. Super excited! Thanks for getting back to me, I really appreciate it.

Hi, hello, dear mods.
I have a bit of question. When sign ups were open, I signed up for one story. I finished it and I have an artist for it and now I only need to send the final part to my beta. Having finished ahead of time, I was wondering if I could submit two stories though I only initially committed for one. (I have 12 for this one and obviously I wouldn't submit a summary, just the 1 August draft.

I'd totally understand if I'm not allowed given that sign ups are closed, but I'm asking because you never know.

Hoping all's well with you,

[ac_mod]

Hi!

Absolutely if you'd like to write a second story that would be more than welcome! You're also welcome to submit a summary for it for artist claiming!

Thanks so much for supporting the aftercamlann big bang!
