Submission Guidelines
There are several elements the authors must include in their submissions in order for @rc-catalog to include the work in the masterlist and weekly roundup. Submissions missing the information will not be reblogged until they are corrected (the creator will be contacted by one of the mods).
Fanfiction/Art MUST INCLUDE:
Title [REQUIRED]
Pairing and/or characters [REQUIRED]
Romantic pairing should be marked by the letter x between the characters names, e.g. Vicky x Malbonte.
Platonic relationships should be marked by the symbol & between the characters names, e.g. Vicky & Sammy.
Trigger warnings [REQUIRED]
Trigger warnings are subjective, but if you think that certain topics may cause discomfort to your readers, please state them in warnings. If you are not sure whether you should use a warning, you can always contact the mods, we will try to help!
Examples of topics which should be included in trigger warnings: death, violence, sexual harassment/abuse, drug/alcohol use, racism*, sexism*, -phobia*, -erasure, suicide, mental health issues, etc.
With all of these you may state: mentioned, implied, attempted etc., for instance "racism mentioned" to make it more clear what the reader should expect.
*PLEASE NOTE: these triggers are only applicable for themes addressed in the submitted work. If the mods find out that the author endorses in their creation/engages in any kind of harassment, the reblog will be taken down and the author contacted/blocked.
Rating [REQUIRED]
The preferred rating system:
General [G]: Content suitable for all ages. It should be free of coarse language, violence, adult themes (even if only implied). Teen [T]: Content suitable for teens and older. It may contain moderate violence, swearing, suggestive material and adult themes such as drug/alcohol ab/use. Mature [M]: Suitable for ages 18+ and older; may contain non-explicit adult themes, violence, strong language, drug use. Trigger warnings required. Explicit [E]: Suitable for ages 18+ and older; may contain explicit adult themes, violence, excessive drug/alcohol ab/use, strong language. Trigger warnings required.
A "Read More" page break [REQUIRED]
Please include a page break in longer posts (which is most fanfics and web weaves). If you need help with adding a page break, you can follow our page break instruction post.
It is crucial that the author tags @rc-catalog to minimise the risk of the mods missing the fanwork! If your submission doesn't appear on the blog within 2 days, please contact the mods (@calebly, @averymarkss, @reneedenoailles) via DMs or ask.
Ideally, your submission should look like this:
Title: ... Pairing: F!MC (Vicky) x Lucifer; [optionally: Mimi & Astaroth, Christopher, Sammy, Geralt] Trigger warnings: mild violence, blood mention, character death Rating: T Tag list: @rc-catalog ... :page break:
You are free to add other categories you consider important, such as word count, category, etc., but these are the requirements the submitted fic has to meet.
You can state the submission info in the creation post, in the comment/reblog or via DMs.
