Submission "guidelines"

Welcome!!! I am *so* glad that you're reading this page!!!! As you can see, my own writings are the bulk of this site, which is wonderful in its own right, but as I am fully enrolled in a very interactive college right now, I can't pump out stories very often. But I would *love* for authors to submit some of their own work to help keep the site interesting, and to fill it to the brim with awesome fanfics. So... places to go....
~either SCROLL DOWN for all the "how to" stuff; or
~click on UNACCEPTABLE for some ideas as to why your fic may not have been accepted; or
~see WHAT TYPE OF FICS *I* (olygrrl)would like to see more of on this site; or
~Submit Now!


Here are the guidelines:
1. Your fic must be in simple "HTML" format. It doesn't have to be complicated at all--just simple paragraph tags will do. I have my own template for the rest of it. If you don't know what this means or are really lazy, click here for the briefest tutorial on my expectations.

2. Your fic must have a disclaimer, pairings (if it applies), and pertinent warning for various 'activities' (yaoi, lime, lemon, etc.). If you're not sure about these warnings, click here for a list of what I use.

3. Your fic must contain, as a heading or footing, an age appropriate recommendation (for swearing, violence, sex, etc) or at the very least a warning of these events, and your contact email address (and website too, if you'd like it posted for publicity). If you don't want your email address posted, that's totally cool; I'd just like it so I can contact you if I need to. And I won't do anything naughty with it. Promise.

4. Your fic needs to have been editted before you send it to me. Please! If you have editting problems (which a lot of us do, believe me) and noone to help, include an explanation in yr email and I'll totally do it for you--just if you can, do it yourself. Otherwise I'll never get through all the submissions (that is, of course, figuring people'll submit. so tell your friends.)and my site'll still be empty.

5. Lastly~please include the description or summary of your story that you'd like posted on the index page to my stories. Oh! Also, GIVE ME YOUR NAME ON YOUR SUBMISSION.

Once this is done-shoot me an email containing it. It can either be attached in a document, or you can just paste it into the body of the email itself. It doesn't matter.


Why wasn't my fic accepted?

There are a couple possibilities here as to why your fic may not have been accepted. Here ya go:

1. It didn't meet the submission critera listed above. The most common of these mistakes is the HTML code; noone ever wants to do this! If I get a submission *not* in code with no email explaining to me your personal circumstances, your fic will not be on the site. The same goes for the rest of the critera. Most of the time, I'll just send you an email telling you that you forgot something, and then you can send it to me, no problem. Just be aware of this!

2. There are two million fics EXACTLY like in on my and other's sites. A good example is the overdone "college" or "high-school" fic. Everyone does them. However, you can still write about these things--hell, I do-- but just add a new twist to the same old story. Rework it. :) Or, it doesn't even have to be a new *twist*, but something that's written well, with added depth and insight about this familiar issue.


What fics does this site not have

and, as a result, Need?

~2x5/5x2
~3x5/5x3
~4x5/5x3
~1x5/5x1
(okay, basically anything with Wufei...)

~1x3/3x1
~2x4/4x2
~1x4/4x1
~2x3/3x2

Also!!!! Notably, this site does *not* have any heterosexual relationships on it. If you'd like to see some, please submit. Really. Yes, my natural inclination is 1x2 and NOT NOT NOT 1xR or 2xH, but if the story is good, you know I won't discriminate. It's your job as a writer to convince me.
Enjoy!
