1.) I will accept pretty much anything. I'm pretty easy
that way, it takes an awful lot to offend me. Since this is supposed
to be a site for all
fans I want to encourage all kinds of fanfiction: comedy, drama,
horror, romance, gen, adult, slash it's all good.
2.) It does not necessarily have to be beta-read but it is strongly encouraged. Very strongly encouraged.
3.) Your story must include a rating (and appropriate warnings is
applicable), a summery, and a disclaimer. I will not risk getting
my butt sued
because someone forgot the ps and qs of disclaimer writing. It's
really easy and it saves everyone a lot of trouble. The reason I
want the ratings
is that since this is going to be an all inclusive site, there may be material
that not everyone wants to read. Thus, ratings and disclaimers.
4.) All fanfics must be spell checked and in either .txt or .html
format. I will not accept .docs or any other text format. I
also want defined
paragraphs in fanfics. None of this runeverythingtogethersothatyoucannotseeorreadit
crap. If you're in the United States you took an English
class. Use it.
5.) Explanation of ratings:
G--General Audiences Think most Disney movies. No language,
violence, or sex. Usually very light themes. I don't see this
one happening
too often.
PG--Parental Guidance Suggested Stronger themes but most everyone can still read it. Maybe a few harsher words but nothing drastic.
PG-13--Not suitable for anyone under 13 The same level as
O,
Brother Where Art Thou?. Harsher language, mild sexual themes
and mild
acts of violence.
R--Restricted Harsh language, sex (nonexplicit), violence. Not for younger readers.
NC-17--No one under 17 Can you say smut? There, I knew you could. Explicit sex, violence, and language. No one under 17 can read it.
6.) Sound reasonable? Submit all stories to joeanne_b@hotmail.com.
I check my email religiously, so approval and posting should be quick.
