Can it be based on someone else’s popular AU in the Phandom?
This answer depends! If the person is very active in the fandom and the work is considered more of a fanart of their fan content, then no. Mods reserve the right to accept and deny ideas if based on another person's established AU on a case-by-case basis. If your AU has the same tropes as another AU, that does not immediately disallow it, but we do want to try to have a variety!

How do check-ins work?
Check-ins are periods throughout the creation period where your pieces will be turned into the Mods to showcase progress. Details of what is expected for each check-in will be detailed in the designated channels in our Discord server. The dates for each check-in are provided on our schedule.
▾◅ ⏅ ⧩ ᛒ
Will extensions be allowed?
Definitely! We will announce reminders one week in advance prior to every due date. Should you require an extension, simply ask for one in the designated channels or message a moderator directly.

What happens if I miss a deadline?
We ask that you keep track of deadlines and let us know as soon as you can if you think you may miss one. However, we are only half-human! Please talk to us, and we will work things out with you. We will be very firm on the final submission dates as this will make zine assembly much easier for release. If you feel that you will not be able to meet a deadline, please ask for an extension sooner rather than later! Failure to inform a mod of your absence or show us progress of your work can result in removal from the project.
