First Writers' Check-in!

Hello!

Writer Check In

If you've signed up for

aftercamlann, it's time for your first check-in! Please drop us a note to let us know how you are doing!

Nothing is due at this point, (rough drafts (15k min) & summaries will be due on June 20). For now, we just want to confirm your participation in the Big Bang and see how you are coming along. If you have any questions, please email the mods at aftercamlann@gmail.com.

This is a mandatory check in. If you wish to write for After Camlann's Big Bang please respond to this post. If you fail to do so, we will assume you are no longer interested in participating.

If there's a reason you are unable to check in during this period, please email us ASAP to let us know.

Please answer the following questions in a comment to this entry by Sunday, May 26.

If you were not prematched with an artist at the time you signed up, but have now acquired an artist for your story, please let us know under "anything else to add".

Also, if you are writing more than one story, please fill out the form for each story.

*Remember, rough drafts are due on June 20, and should be at least 15k and/or 60% of your finished story. While we expect some scenes to be missing, drafts should include at least a beginning, middle and a clear plan or outline for the end.

(This post will be open until Sunday, May 26, 2019.)

Please be sure to check out the Merlin Chat for support and encouragement as you're writing your ACBB, plus check out the many other helpful posts in the

camladerie support community!

Beta Sign Ups - 2019

This is the post for Betas wanting to take part in the Big Bang.

The sign up post for betas will be up until the end of Big Bang!

We need both writing and art betas! If you are willing to offer your services as a beta, first let us say a hearty THANK YOU! Betas are an integral part of every Big Bang team since all works must be beta'd prior to posting.

Later down the road, writers and artists will be able to post on

camladerie in search of betas (including what they need/are looking for) but that doesn't mean you have to wait! Anyone needing the services of a beta is encouraged to start looking through the sign ups here. If you find someone you think could work well with your fic/art please feel free to contact them directly.

We will not be matching betas with artists & writers but we will do all we can to make it as easy as possible for you to find each other.

Betas are not required to sign up in order to participate in the Big Bang. Sign ups are mostly a means to connect willing betas with needy creatives. Every artist & writer is required to have at least one beta for their work but is allowed as many betas they want/need.

You don't have to be a LJ user to sign up, but if you don't have an LJ account, please put your user name and the site you use (f.ex. tumblr, dA, FF.net) in this format 'namehere'@tumblr' in your comment and give us the link to your profile so that we know how to find you.

When giving your timezone please give the standard time zone! You can check your standard time zone from HERE by searching your home city! STZ can be found after you click the name of the city to the next page.

Please sign up with a following information:

Story betas

Art betas

Note: If you are willing/able to beta for both fic and art, please fill out both forms and HAVE OUR UNDYING LOVE!!

After you sign up for the fest, we encourage you to request membership in our support community

camladerie for access to activities & information available only to ACBB participants.

*Please note: if you are uncomfortable with publicly sharing your email address you can email it to us at aftercamlann @ gmail.

Hype-Reader Sign Ups - 2019

This post is for everyone wanting to take part in the ACBB as a Hype-Reader.

The sign up post for hype readers will be up until the end of ACBB!

What is a hype reader?

Hype readers are a new role within our ACBB community, replacing the previous role of cheerleader. If you’d like to support the fest, but can’t participate as a writer, artist or beta we would like to invite you to participate without writing, making art or beta-reading in the capacity of hype reader! Hype readers are people who are interested in helping our lovely creators get a good response by pledging to read, view, and comment on at least two collaborations from the fest. We would also like to ask you to consider reccing the ACBBs you have enjoyed. If you would also like to help out in an alpha reader/supporter capacity, as cheerleaders used to do previously, please answer yes on your hype reader form in the alpha reader/supporter question.

Why should I become a hype reader?

All writers and artists enjoy receiving feedback on their stories and art that they’ve worked so hard on, being a hype reader is a way to show your support and appreciation to our creators and encourage others to give feedback as well. Even if you participate as a writer, artist or beta you can still be a hype reader too.

You don't have to be a LJ user to sign up, but if you don't have an LJ account, please put your user name and the site you use (i.e., tumblr, dA, twitter, etc.) in this format 'namehere'@tumblr' in your comment or give us the link to your profile so that we know where to find you.

When giving your timezone please give the standard time zone! You can check your standard time zone from HERE by searching your home city! STZ can be found after you click the name of the city to the next page.

Please sign up with the following information:

After you sign up for the fest, we encourage you to request membership in our support community
