Sign-ups: October 15 TODAY - October 22. Claiming: Begins October 25.
Anyone over the age of 18 (on or before December 1, 2011) may sign up. You can find a detailed description of how the fest works, timelines, rules, and FAQs here. Remember, this exchange is designed to be for smaller gifts (500 to 3,000 word fic, art without detailed background and/or color, a small group of icons). Entries do not have to be holiday themed. As long as it's Snarry, that's all the celebration we need. If after reading the post you have any further questions, feel free to ask at the How it Works/FAQ post or email us at spfestmod [at] gmail [dot] com. Please fill out the entire sign-up form as thoroughly as possible. Simply copy/paste the following template into a comment to this post. You must give a gift to get a gift.
Username: Since we cross-post to all three journals, please list your username at IJ/LJ/DW if you have more than one. Email Address: Please give us an address you check regularly. Please check your spam filter for assignments. Age statement: Any variation of "I am over 18" is fine. Three prompts Please give three prompts consisting of: one word; one sentence; one quote; one LINK to an image (no hotlinking please!). Please do not suggest too much detail, give a plot outline, or ask for a novel -- these are small gifts! An example of an appropriate prompt might be: "sledding", "holiday Snarry icons", "Over the river and through the woods", "solstice". Up to three deal-breakers: We want you to be happy with your gift. We ask participants to assume anything too kinky or too outside the box shouldn't be in the gift unless specifically requested. That means scat, necrophilia, and Roman showers will be assumed to be a deal-breaker unless specifically requested. So this spot is for more commonly seen kinks/genres/scenarios you would prefer not to receive. IMPORTANT Additionally, because it could be illegal for your recipient to view anything with an under-18 character Chan will not be permitted UNLESS requested by the recipient. I especially like: Please put your favorite things here. Like "pwp", "mpreg", "fluff", "holiday themed", "happy endings", "mystery", "humor", "angst".
DON'T FORGET!
Signing up is only the first part. Participants will need to come back to the community beginning Tuesday, Oct 25 to claim your prompt. A list of all sign-ups (minus usernames) will be posted to snape_potter on Oct 23.
Secret Snarry is designed to be fun and low-stress with bite-sized entries and the perfect way to take a break from the holiday rush. We are excited to get started and hope you choose to join us.
