Information

I have been getting A LOT of questions regarding this fundraiser so now I am going to try to answer some of them here:
  • As a contributing author, you get an advanced copy of the compilation before it is sent to people who are making donations. You may also donate monetarily if you choose, but you are not required since you are donating your time by writing a story.
  • If you sign up now as a contributing author and at a later date you feel like you cannot commit to writing something by the deadline, you can DEFINITELY back out. No hard feelings. This is a FUNdraiser and meant to be just that....FUN! No stress! I know all to well how real life can get in the way. Just be sure to shoot an email to fandomagainstdomesticviolence@gmail.com so that we can take you off the list and not harass you about your submission :)
  • Authors can write whatever genre they choose. There are no limits here. It can be TwiFic, PotterFic, Original fic, poetry, a brand new one-shot, a side-shot/future-shot of a story you already write. WHATEVER you choose!!!  Again....there are no limits! This is one thing I love about the fandom...the endless creativity. So I would LOVE to see what everyone comes up with!!
  • For those who just wish to donate money: the minimum donation is $10. That is dictated by the NCADV donation site. You are more than welcome to donate more if you would like.  This donation gets you the ENTIRE compilation, meaning you will receive EVERY SINGLE story involved in the compilation!!! There is no bidding on individual stories. This is not a contest. This is for fun and to raise money and awareness for The National Coalition Against Domestic Violence.
  • I am also working on coming up with some other ideas....maybe having artists contribute digital work to add....or if you want to create something handmade for people to bid on. I want to be able to include more than just authors in this venture. So if you are an artist or creative person who feels they are not a writer PLEASE PLEASE contact me with your thoughts and ideas fandomagainstdomesticviolence@gmail.com. I am open to new ideas.
Thanks again to everyone for all their support. We already have THIRTY-FOUR authors signed up to contribute which is INCREDIBLE!!! 

xoxo,
