WRITERS:
Writers will create a fic at least 4000 words in length for a rare pair of their choice. If there are more artists than writers, doubles will be assigned only after ALL fics have been claimed by at least one artist.
ARTISTS:
Artists will create at least 1 detailed piece (any medium; examples include but are not limited to digital art, traditional art, comics, fan edits, AMVs, and MMDs) inspired by their partner's fic.
POSTING:
Artists must communicate with writers about how their art will be posted and how it should be credited in the fic (embedded, linked, etc.). Artists may post their art to any platform on posting day, but they must also link back to the fic and credit the writer appropriately. Fics must be posted to AO3 as part of this year’s mini bang collection. You may also post your fic to other websites once posting day arrives.
