Beta/Britpicker Sign-Ups

There has been a couple of requests for a beta and/or britpicker for this fest, so if anyone can help out please fill out the attached form so I can send them in the right direction. 

Many thanks!

Hey guys, Round One author sign-ups are now OPEN! Here is a refresher for how this process will go:

Authors can sign up NOW, giving general contact information. This will reserve their spot in line for a prompt, if they chose to claim one. Prompts are first-come, first-serve, in the order of author sign-up.

If you are considering claiming a prompt, it is in your best interest to sign up sooner rather than later!

Round One sign-ups will close on July 12, 2019 at midnight EST. If you are not ready to commit just yet, there will be another opportunity to sign up for the festival in early September.

Before signing up, please read the RULES and the SCHEDULE, both linked here. You will be required to agree to both of these when you submit your author sign-up.

Authors will be able to claim their prompts during the week of July 12-19.

There will be two check-ins, on September 6, and November 8. 

Round One fics are all due on January 3, 2020!

Feel free to ask/message with any questions! I am so excited to have ou guys on board!

If you’re interested in being a beta and/or a Brit picker for the Popularry Culture Fic Fest, you may sign up now!

You may sign up >>>here<<<

If you are interested in betaing or Britpicking for the 1D Short Fic Fest, please sign up here.

Fics are due Feb 10, and will be posted beginning Feb 15!

These fics do not need to be slash nor do they need to include smut. Our only requirements are the maximum word count (2,500) and that it’s a story based around at least one of OT5.

Hi, everyone! 

Don’t forget, there is a mandatory check-in by December 1, which is THIS Friday. You’re more than welcome to let us know how you’re doing before then, but you must let us know by Friday how your fic is coming along. We don’t need an actual draft of it, just an update of your progress. 

Hey Nonny!

BETA

@thinkingforhours

I am a native english speaker with experience in freelance editing. I have participated as a beta in several fests. Triggers: EDs

I don’t dabble in A/B/O. I’ve never really been interested in age gap stories either but a good plot would probably set my mind at ease. I’m not sure if there’s a specific pairing for this contest but I prefer only to work with Larry fic if possible. Plot would change my mind with that stipulation too. I love editing down to the finest details, so please feel free to ask me for help with plot development or anything of the sort.

@hihelloemma*

I have experience helping beta a few fics in the past. In general with editing, I am a creative writing student with experience in creating a collaborative sense to editing that involves helping an author with what they desire rather than me telling them what is wrong. I am able to help bounce ideas, edit at any point in the story, or simply look for grammar mistakes. I am not willing to edit underage/HS. I generally prefer to help edit/read ages 20 and above. I am a fan of all ships or none at all.
