fpwoper asked:

Hey, I have a question about the summaries/art claim bits. Do artists claim on the basis of a summary, and do I need to include what's going to happen in the story in the summary? My summary right now is kind of baiting readers without telling where it's going, but I can make a more elaborate one if necessary?

For this question we highly suggest that you read this post on info for a summary that is being presented to artists.

What you are submitting to us is not for readers. What you are submitting to us is a summary that will entice the artist to want to pick your fic over everyone else’s. As it says in the post linked, you should include as much information as is relevant, as well as visually enticing elements that will draw the artist to your fic. 

A more elaborate summary is a good idea if only to let the artist know what they have available in the fic. You may have something that the artist isn’t comfortable creating for, on the other hand you may have something that an artist is dying to create for and you just happen to have it in your fic. 

The more detailed the better. Read that post and if you still have questions, let us know! Remember that communication is key!

So, just to confirm... the rough draft due this month doesn't have to be the complete story? Here I was thinking the whole story was due and freaking out about it.

That is correct. The entire fic is not required to be finished by Feb. 21st. It does however need to be finished before April 1st. Ideally at least 50% would be written. But if it is not we understand. If you are having issues please come to us and talk. We encourage that completely. We want to work with every bang participant in order to ensure that everything is moving along comfortably and no one is stressed over this. This is supposed to be fun. 

Remember communication is key!

rough drafts need to be close to 50 percent? so ideally i could hand in a 2500 word fic, while being signed up for the mini bang, and if it somehow ends up being 15000 words there won't be a problem? i have been unable to write anything for the past three or so months and have nothing written, and i don't want to drop out.

That is a good question. We do not want to see anyone drop out, believe us, our goal here was to get more D/C/J out into the world and make people more aware. However we also understand that it does happen. We won’t be upset if authors end up dropping. 

Now as far as the drafts go, it would be ideal to have about 50% done by the time Feb. 21st rolls around. We do need to know at that time what size bang you plan on having your story. For art claims the artists need to know. If you are unsure, pick one and let us know that it is a possibility that it will be larger or smaller. Like, Mini Bang (possibly upgraded to Big Bang), that way the artist is aware. 

Once your fic is claimed by an artist it is up to the two (or three if you are an author collaborating with another author) to communicate so that things are clear and efficient between all involved. Communication is key.

We understand that sometime people get into a funk when it comes to writing, we will never penalize you for that, however we do ask that you are sure that you will be able to continue with the bang before artist claims go up. We currently have a limited amount of artist, some who are willing to take on more than one fic, so if an author know they are unable to compete their fic and need to drop, we ask to give us a heads up before art claims. 

We do know that things come up unexpectedly as well, we will communicate with participants on a case by case basis as if and when they come up. 

So, tl;dr, yes, submit what you have, let us know what bang you are planning and if it is possible that it will become a different one. If you need to talk to further on this do not hesitate to message @formidablepassion or e-mail us to allow for a better means of communication. 

Remember communication is key.
