Because I'm getting ready for the new round to start therefore I'm staggering posts at the moment :D There have been a few changes this year to give a longer time for artists to work on their artwork and to collaborate with their authors. Because of this the word count for the first draft has been lowered by 1000 words. Basically the overall time is the same I've just brought up the date of the draft and artist claims. Please make note of this.
