Kirorororo here again!
As you know, the official contest thread by Fenoxo is to post your submissions, meaning any discussion you have should be in this thread or in your own submission's thread.
The following are recommended (not mandatory) for the contest (I'm giving these advices based on the 2017 halloweiner contest)
-A google drive (suggestions openned) document (people don't want to be forced to download your shit to see it and having one same format helps readers). The link you have should allow comments and suggestions (Not be only viewable as this would prevent readers to point any mistake/incoherences and such, but not editable by viewers either for obvious reasons). If that can't be done for x reasons, be ready for a total lack of feedback.
-INSTALL THE SETTING OF YOUR SUBMISSION: Where does it happen? On what planet? In which circumstances can the event be triggered. What are the fetishes displayed and the big lines of your story (people need to know the bases). Are there multiple branches to your story and if so what are they? This should take about a page and should be kept updated as you progress through your writing.
-Have a
Title so people know how to refer to your submission.
-Mark the beggining of every scene with a small title leaving an idea of the content of the scene and marking the changement of the scene.
-
Make paragraphs, that way people know when you change subject and have visual cues to help them follow your text. No paragraph makes for a rapid disinterest in any submission.
-A doc at the very least 5 pages (less is often not a complete submission). Try not to leave any (Insert that scene here as that leaves your submission incomplete to readers.)
-A doc less than 40 pages (More is ok but
@Savin and
@Fenoxo might hate you for it or skim through it when they'll be reviewing the submissions, in both cases, it might not pay off).
-You can't go wrong with arial size 11 for basic text (smaller makes your submission seem scarily longer and bigger makes it hard to read a word without having to focus on each letter separately)
I have a simple formula for the submissions once they start coming in
Number of the submission/Title(linked to the submission)/number of pages(rounded to every 5)/author/Does it includes sex or sexy and is it winter holiday themed? In other word: is it officially suitable for the contest?(yes, ish or no)
Example: 12-
Candy Kane/25 pages/by
@Username/Yes(it is suitable)
