Posting Guidelines

Welcome to Fandom Gives Back!

We’re so happy that you want to be a part of this effort.


There are a few important things to keep in mind when making your post. One is to be as specific as possible in your offer. Include your fandoms, your charities, your strengths and anything that you will not do (for example: deathfic, mpreg, etc). Another is tagging your post properly.

Tagging will be very important as it is how people who are interested in donating for your services will find you.

There are several kinds of tags that you will need to include: Offer tags (what kind of work you are offering and whether the offer is active), Fandom tags (what fandoms you work in), Charity tags (what charities you support), and Rating tags (what ratings you create).

If your tag does not exist, please let your friendly neighborhood moderators know and we’ll get it created for you. For a list of currently available tags, see this link

Now, to the required information in your post. Please make sure that your post includes the following:

Name: Your Name/Username
Email: Please include an email for proof of donation
Offer: Fic/Art/Graphics/Audio/Misc (these will also be your Offer tags)
Specifics: More detail about your offer, word counts, specialties, things you will not write/do
Ratings: G, PG, PG-13, R, NC-17 (please include any you are willing to provide)
Link to Previous work: Please include a link to your previous work so that potential buyers can get an idea of your style
Charities You Support: This is the list of Charities you are willing to work for. Red Cross, ASPCA, RAINN, The Trevor Project, etc.
Fandoms: Please list the fandoms you work in

For example:

Name: phantisma
Email: phantisma @ comcast.net
Offer: Fic
Specifics: Total word count dependant on donation, generally 1000 words/$10 donated. Specialties include dark fic, slave fic, pwp, kink, crossovers, crack (with the right inspiration) and long, detailed fic (10k words and up)
Ratings: G, PG, PG-13, R, NC-17
Link to Previous work: Index of Previous Stories
Charities You Support: Heifer International, RAINN, ASPCA, American Diabetes Association, American Red Cross
Fandoms: Angel, Buffy, Firefly, SG-1, SGA, Supernatural, White Collar, Justified, Syfy’s Alice, Criminal Minds, Leverage, Sanctuary, others possibly if I know them.

With that example, my tags would include: Offering: fanfic active, rating: g, rating: pg, rating: pg-13, rating: r, rating: nc-17, fandom: angel, fandom: buffy, fandom: firefly, fandom: sg1, fandom: sga, fandom: supernatural, fandom: white collar, fandom: justified, fandom: alice, fandom: criminal minds, fandom: leverage, fandom: sanctuary, charity: red cross, charity: heifer, charity: aspca, charity: diabetes

In the subject line, please post your offer type and username. For example, for the offer above it would be: Offer: Fic, Phantisma.
