All accepted contributors are expected to produce a new and unique work (art or writing) for this zine. This work cannot have been published or shared elsewhere and cannot be publicly shared until after the project is complete.

If there is evidence that a submitted work is created with AI or otherwise plagiarized, the contributor will be expelled from the project.

Contributors are expected to meet their check-in and submission deadlines or else quickly communicate to mods if they need an extension or other leniency. A contributor missing multiple check-ins with no communication may force the mods to remove them from the project.

Contributors are expected to join the contributor discord and regularly check for updates and other information shared there. They are also expected to follow the server rules including remaining respectful to their team members and not engaging in hateful or offensive speech. Breaking these rules may result in expulsion from the project. We want to keep the server a happy and creative space for all!

Page artists are expected to produce either a one-page illustration, a two-page spread, or a 2-4 page comic. All must be completed, in full color, and have a background or backgrounds by the submission deadline.

We may include spot illustrations to accompany feature fics. In which case, spot artists are expected to produce 2-3 small "spot" illustrations by working together with a writer. These are not required to have a background but should blend well with the page around them. Artist-writer teams will be made by the mods and are expected to remain in regular contact.

Merch artists are expected to design 2+ original merchandise designs. This may include digital merch. Product types will be assigned by the mods.

Again, work cannot contain elements generated with AI and/or be traced from others' art. These constitute plagiarism and will result in expulsion from the project.

Feature fic writers are expected to produce an original written work of 2k-3k words. They will also potentially collaborate with a spot artist to illustrate it.

All written works are expected to be polished and contain no grammar or spelling mistakes. Contributors will receive help proof-reading and editing from the writing mod.

All written works must be original and, again, any evidence of the usage of AI or plagiarism will result in expulsion.

Potential page artists are required to submit 3 samples that best display their artistic ability and the quality and style they plan to use for this project. we also ask for a portfolio of 3-10 additional works.

A sample containing all might is not required, but is highly recommended.

At least one featured piece must contain a full background.

Google Drive links are preferred (though not required) for the three feature pieces and portfolio. Please double-check that these are set to public sharing.

please do not provide a social media page as your portfolio--it should contain only your chosen works.

As for all zines, we recommend that your featured art and portfolio contain "zine-style" works that are colored, polished, and have a full background.

Similar to page artists, potential merch artists are required to submit 3 samples of merch designs that best display their artistic ability and the quality and style they plan to use for designing the merch for this project as well as a portfolio of 3-10 additional merch designs.

your examples and portfolio can contain photographs of merch you have produced, design files, mock-ups, or just the art. make sure the art is visible and that it is clear what merch item a sample is meant to be.

you may include designs for any merch types in your samples. if you are interested in creating a print, you should include at least one print example with a full illustration.

A sample containing all might is not required, but is highly recommended.

Google Drive links are preferred (though not required) for the three feature pieces and portfolio. Please double-check that these are set to public sharing.

Potential writers are required to submit 3 writing samples of 1-3k words that best represent their work as well as a portfolio of 1-3 additional works.

At least one feature or portfolio piece must be a complete work within the word limit.

A sample containing all might is not required, but is highly recommended if possible.

Features can be full-length fics (max 3k words), excerpts from larger fics, or samples of other creative writing. we most recommend completed fics.

Google Drive links are preferred (though not required) for the three feature pieces and portfolio. Please double-check that these are set to public sharing. If sharing links to works on AO3, please make sure they are viewable by the public.

Works will be judged on grammar, style, flow, and characterization.
