Submission Guidelines

 

OK, so you have a fic you want us to archive - fabulous. All you need do is send the fic to dolores_l@hotmail.com or post it to the IncrediblyPale mailing list. And, for your information, here are the rules you should follow.

1. Your fic can be of any rating G to NC-17.
2. It must centre on a relationship between Angel (or Angelus, or Puppy) and Oz. It can include other characters (e.g. Devon or Buffy) in m/m/m or m/m/f situations, and it can include either character having other relationships so long as A/O is prominent at some point. If in doubt, send it to us and we'll adjudicate.
3. All fics should include a header - the standard issue one going as follows:

TITLE: Er, where you put the title.
AUTHOR: That's you, sweetie.
E-MAIL: The address at which your public can contact you. If you don't want to receive feedback directly then we can forward it to you.
SUMMARY: A brief summary of the plot or lack thereof. You don't have to provide a critical synopsis, just remember that you're selling your story to potential readers. So write something short and snappy.
SPOILERS: If you give away canon plot details let the readers know so they don't complain if they haven't seen that episode.
RATING: How baaaad the fic is. Use either the American MPAA or the British BBFC ratings, please.
DISCLAIMER: Pay homage to the character's creators and owners so they don't sue us and they don't sue you. Not that they'd get much from us.
NOTES: Anything else you might want to mention, from dedications to the goldfish or where the song in the fic comes from.

4. Please use a spellcheck - or, better yet, a beta reader so that any mistakes are picked up on, as many readers won't read a fic full of spelling errors.
5. If you submit them directly to us, please do so in .doc or .txt format. We'd be ever so grateful as it makes it easier for us!
6. The editor's decision is final. Batteries are not included. Warning: may contain traces of nuts.

And that's it. any questions can be e-mailed to dolores_l@hotmail.com
