hpkinkfest | Entries tagged with [admin] fest-2017

The posting schedule for the 2017 Kink Fest can be located HERE. We did our best to accommodate everyone's posting preferences while also attempting to make sure that we had a variety of types of stories and art for each day.

All participants will have posting access to the community on their scheduled day (or days). You should post your submission at any time on your scheduled day. You may also post in the HP Kink Fest Collection on AO3 and link to AO3 from your entry in the community here. (More information on how to do that will be provided later.)

The mods will not send a reminder email for you to post your pieces, so please put it in your calendars. If you absolutely need to change your date, please email the mods at hpkinkfest@gmail.com.

A brief reminder that claiming remains open and will until posting begins. If you would like to claim a second (or third) prompt, please submit your completed story or art piece to the mods via email or shared gdoc so that we can approve it and then approve your second or third claim. Participants are only allowed up to three claims.

Thank you, and please don't hesitate to reach out to us with any questions or concerns!

Requested Posting Week:

In the sign-up you will be asked to specify a week that suits you best for posting.
Because this is a self-posting fest, the mods will not be posting your story or art to this comm on your behalf unless you have emailed the mods and requested that your entry be posted anonymously to the community. On that basis, for the purposes of this fest you will be assigned a posting date. We will open posting access to the community for you on that date.

You will be given 24 hours to post. If you fail to post your fic or art during that time – and you let us know that you do, in fact, have something to post – you will be permitted to post your entry the day after. If you cannot make that date, you can post after regular posting is completed. Please do keep the mods appraised if you can so we can shuffle things around if needs be.

Options for Requested posting week:

Week 1: 13 – 19 February 2017
Week 2: 20 – 26 February 2017
Week 3: 27 February – 5 March 2017

In your sign-up, you may also include limitation such as: I can't post Wednesdays, and we will do our best to accommodate you.

Decide which week works best for you, and have the information ready to include with your prompt claim. We will reply to your comment directly with confirmation of your claim and the date you will be posting. We will also list everyone's posting dates in our

hp_kinkfest Posting Calendar which we will put up after the claiming period for ease of reference. You will be able to see who is posting on any given day, but the details of the prompts claimed will not be shown.

( Anonymous Participation in the fest )

The mods will reply to your claiming comment as soon as possible. You will be told which of your requested prompts you will be writing/drawing and you will be provided with your posting date.

We will not be emailing you to remind you of your posting date.

This is a self-posting fest. You are responsible for keeping your posting date in mind, and you are expected to post your kinky story or art yourself. When you post, you will be added to a moderated queue and we will approve your post as soon as we see it. We will provide a Google Calendar once claiming is closed, for you to check when you are supposed to post.
