Our Criteria
First and foremost, it has to be a good story!
- NO MARY SUES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Grammar and spelling: Nothing much more serious than typos and common grammatical/spelling errors is an asset.
- Characterization: Just because the characters already exist, doesn’t mean they don’t need any development. OOC is looked down upon unless the author has warned readers about it, and can make readers believe in it.
- Plot: Beginning, middle, end. Make it interesting! Conflict is essential to plot, don’t forget!
- Originality: We really do get tired of seeing the same thing over and over.
- Believability: Non-canon pairing? Alternate universe? Make readers believe it!
- Consistency: Don’t tell readers one thing, and then forget about it later.
