Hello BBCs! It's been half a year since
blockoween, and
blockisbang is excited to open up its second event: a
blockisbang summer exchange!
Please read the rules below before signing up. Anyone is welcome to join this exchange, whether you have written for Block B before or not. Come join us!
RULES
This is an exchange, so everyone will both write and receive a fic.
The minimum word count is 1000 words, although feel free to go above and beyond this minimum. You must submit your story before the deadline (schedule below), and if you need an extension, contact the mod before the deadline by sending an email to blockisbangfic@gmail.com (the mod email) or
pm.
Please only sign up with the intention of committing to this exchange, and if you are sure that you can complete your assignment on time! If you DO need to drop out during the exchange, then contact the mod directly via email or pm as soon as possible.
Please keep from discussing your fic or assignment in a public venue or somewhere your recipient might see it; anonymity is the name of the game! All entries will be anonymous and posted by the mod until reveals, which will occur after all fic has been posted. Posting will begin on the assigned date and continue through the scheduled period.
You may sign up below by commenting on this post or sending an email to the mod email (signup information below); a livejournal account is not required. Assignments will be sent from the mod email to participants after signups have closed, so be sure to sign up with a valid email and check it periodically for assignments, check-in, and deadline information.
For the check-in, send your draft and/or confirmation that you are still participating to the mod email by the check-in date. The check-in is required!
A beta--preferably not another participant in the exchange--is highly encouraged for your fic. If you cannot find a beta for your work, then contact the mod, who will try to help find a solution.
Email your fic before the deadline to the mod email by the deadline in a .txt or .doc file format with all proper html formatting, including the header and lj cut. More details will be sent out via email as the deadline approaches.
For more information pertaining to all
blockisbang events, please refer and adhere to the general rules post (and the exchange section)
