This is a friendly reminder that your gifts are due on Friday and a few important announcements.
1. Please email your completed works to holmesticemods@gmail.com.
Fics can be emailed as attachments or in the body of an email, .doc or .txt is preferred, but we can take most file extensions. We are happy to host content for you including art, graphics, podfics, and any videos. You are also welcome to host these things yourself, but please make sure the url does not include your user name and doesn't link to anything that has identifying information. Holmestice is anonymous. We will post your works throughout the month of December, after author reveals around the 1st of January, you'll be free to post them to personal journals, communities, or our AO3 group.
2. Please include a header either at the top of the story document or in the body of your e-mail.
This is the header for authors:
This is the header for artists:
These headers are mandatory. You may add word count or notes or whatever floats your boat, but you may not submit a story or artwork with an incomplete header.
3. Tag your story for html and add line breaks after paragraphs.
That means adding the relevant tags for italics, bold font or whatever other formatting you may need, as well as blank lines between paragraphs for easier reading. If you don't know how to html-tag, here's a brief guide on which tags do what. If you need additional help, please contact us and we'll be happy to assist you.
4. If you are unable to submit your work by the deadline for any reason, please contact the mods as soon as possible.
We'd much rather work with you to get your work submitted than have to wrangle a pinch hitter. Please don't hesitate to ask for an extension. If you do, you will receive a confirmation email from the mods with a new date for submission. Please be aware that this will be a final deadline. If you do not submit your work on the due date and we do not hear from you regarding an extension, we will consider you defaulted and immediately put your work out for a pinch hit.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask, we're happy to help!
