How to sign up
(Sign-ups open Sat 16 Mar 2019 - Fri 12th April)

1. Choose a date from the below list. Try to go for empty dates, if you can, so we get a good spread across the month, but two or three people can claim the same date.
   
2. If you would like to write from a prompt, choose one from the Prompt Post. (Only one claim per prompt if possible, please). You do not have to claim a prompt to play.
   
3. Comment to this post with your date, username (for wherever you're planning to post the fic), the prompt you've chosen and/or the minor character(s) you're going to be focusing on.
   
4. Congratulations! You're signed up!
   

You can sign up for up to two fics initially - simply choose a second date/prompt etc., and repeat the process. (If you would like to write even more, you can claim a third once you have posted your first fic & so on.)



Posting
(Posting: Sat 13th April – Sat 11th May)

• You must either post the fic (under a cut) to the comm, or link back to it from wherever you choose to post it. (There is a collection on AO3.)
  
• Min. word count 500 words. (No maximum). It's a low pressure fest, but please do ensure your fics are correctly formatted and spell-checked, and beta-ed if needed.
  
• You are welcome to use your fic to double up for another challenge (e.g. bingos, prompt tables etc.), but do check that's okay with the other challenge's rules.
  
• You MUST use a heading with rating, word count, any relevant warnings and all fics must be under a cut if posted directly to the comm.
  
• You will need to join the comm to post. (If you're not on DW, please contact the mod to arrange to make the link post to the comm for you.)
  
• Please post on the date claimed or let the mod know if you won't be able to manage it. (Don't worry - rearranging a date shouldn't be a problem and there's no penalty for having to drop out. Real life eats us all at times.)
  

I will post a masterlist once the fest is over.

There's further (non DW) contact info and a FAQ at the Introduction & Info post and you can sign up via those methods or by anon-commenting if you don't have an DW account. There is also a banner post for pimping purposes - please promote the fest wherever appropriate.
