2. Entries must be posted here in the TwistedShorts Community or be a reply to the 2020 August Fic-A-Day Challenge located on the main site to be counted.
3. Post more than one a day if you want, but only one fic per 24 hours counts toward the challenge. Backdating stories is strictly forbidden (and underhanded).

Special Note:
If you are posting to TtH we strongly urge you to post ficlets/shorts that are part of a series as one “story” rather than multiple standalone stories.
Prizes:
Write 31 fics in 31 days and receive a nifty banner and, of course, bragging rights.
Weekly Roundup:
There will be a weekly roundup/announcement of standing each Monday. However, the mods will be checking the submissions daily to make sure they fit the rules, are tagged correctly, etc. If you feel your daily submission is questionable (in regards to crossover-ness), please contact a moderator directly so we can address the issue before the day is up.
If you are posting to both LiveJournal and TtH concurrently please be sure to notate your TtH user on your LJ entry for tracking purposes.
Tagging Policy:
Be kind and please tag your posts so that future visitors can easily find stories by the fandom they want to read, the author or the challenge year. This also greatly assists the mods when they are compiling status updates.
If you post and do not have either an author tag or the fandom tag you need, please select the appropriate tag seen below and one of the mods will get you a tag.
Tag for New Authors: !tag needed: author
Tag for New Fandoms: !tag needed: fandom
Also, tag each post for the appropriate year challenge with: !2020 august event
