RULES
RulesThis Rules only apply to claiming section
1. Similar to most of the 30_themes communities(only thing is that you have to write your fic in Chinese), you do not have to follow the themes in any order. Just do it as inspiration hits.
2. Take as long as you wish, but try to post something once every six months. If you remain inactive for more than six months, your pairing will be put back to the drawingboard for others to claim. If you are going to go abroad or missing for six months or more, please email and/or comment at this post.
3. Each participant may claim up to two couples at a time. No threesomes, kay? However, if you wish to claim two couples, they must be from different fandoms. These couples will be yours and no one else's for the duration of your 20 themes. Once you complete your 20 themes, that couple will be fair game for anyone else who wishes to claim them. *Note - claiming two couples means you're expected to do all 20 themes for each couple.*
Exception -- collaborations are allowed, but keep it to a maximum of two people. This means that you work together to do one set of 20 themes, not that you each do 20 on your own. The couple will count as one couple for each of you, and the fandom rule still applies.
4.To request a couple, please respond to this POST with the subject line "request". Please make sure you include the full names of both characters and the fandom that they are from! Also, please check the list of claimed couples first to make sure they haven't already been taken.
Also, if you have already requested one couple, and would like to request another, make a new comment thread instead of replying to your old comment. If you reply to an old comment, chances are we're not going to see it when we go through the list.
When you are done with a couple or decide that you can't/don't want to finish, please leave a comment in this entry so that couple can quickly be freed up for someone else.
5. When a couple is claimed, that counts for both writing and art. You can do either one or the other, or both, if you want to. If you can do both, then power to you! ^^
6. Interpret the themes as you will. Any word can mean anything and you can warp the meaning until it fits your needs... whatever those are. So write and/or draw as you see fit. ^^
7. The style of your entries is entirely up to you. The length of the story/fiction doesn't matter; it's the content that does. Likewise for artists, it can be a rough sketch, or a really complicated piece of artwork that you've spent ages on. As long as you capture the theme of romance inside it, it's all good.
8. Don't worry too much about something being good or not good enough to post. Don't be too hard on yourself. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, ne? ^^
9. You can use work that you've already done and made public, but don't do this too often, because it defeats the whole purpose. This community is for creating new things, yes?
10. Please post all your works of art and fiction behind lj-cuts. When posting, try to follow this format as much as possible,
Fandom:
Title:
Author/Artist:
Theme(s): (include the # number and full theme)
Pairing/Characters:
Rating:
Disclaimer/claimer (if needed):
Summary (if needed):
(picture/fiction behind an lj-cut or linked to your journal/webspace etc.)
12. All ratings are welcome here! HOWEVER, anything of an R or higher rating ABSOLUTELY MUST be put behind an LJ-cut and clearly marked as such in front of the LJ-cut!
13. If you're posting something with more than one chapter, it's up to you whether you want to post a chapter at a time, or wait until you've finished the whole thing.
14. Plagiarism will absolutely not be tolerated. Be original.
15. Feedback is wonderful, but it should always be constructive! We're here to help and encourage each other! Flaming is not allowed and will be frowned upon.
16. This is a community for Chinese fics/drabbles, so all fics/drabbles should be written in Chinese
