TheReadingClub | DeviantArt (original) (raw)

Hello, Members, Bookworms and curious people!!

So this is my very first group, about one of my biggest time-consuming and delightful hobby: reading!!

There are already groups around here about this, I know, but most of them aren't really to my liking, with categories that annoy me, like when the book I've just read could go into "sci-fi" AND "fantasy" ... or "period drama" AND "adventure"... So I've decided to create folders by author's name, which isn't very original, but at least is clear and easy to navigate...

When an author will have more than 50 fanart pieces about their work, I'll make a subfolder.

These are our submission rules, don't hesitate to ask if you have questions, issues, if you think we are being too strict or too loose... All the comments will be read!

What we accept and don't accept:

- We welcome fanart about published works, art about paper books and reading devices, portraits of writers, almost anything that has to do with your favorite readings!

- We do NOT accept: fanfiction or fanpairing

- We do NOT accept fetish, porn, poney-fication and things like that... For deviations with mature content (sexual content or gore and violence), we'll decide for each case if the deviation is ok for this group, which aims to be friendly for younger Deviants, too

Submission Rules:

- Please, submit to the correct folder, according to the elements below:

- Generally, submit by author's family name, that is to say, for example, J.K. Rowling should be in the "R" folder, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in "D", Lewis Carrol in "C", etc...

- For authors that are known only by a surname/ nickname/ first name, you should submit with their usual name, like Homer in "H", Plato in "P",...

- If the author isn't known, or if it's a collab, please submit it to the "anonymous / collective" folder

I've put the deadline to approve your submissions on "2 weeks" for times when I'll be on vacation and not able to connect... so if your deviation hasn't been accepted straight away, please be patient..

I haven't created a crossover folder yet, we'll see if it's necessary later

And that's all for today, I will update these rules when necessary... I hope you members agree with them!
