~*ROOLS*~
'BexMod say: 'Don't be Fools; read the Rools!'
*****************************************************
-~2,000 - 4,000 word count chapter.
-Due in my mail box (bex@luoda.com) on or before Sunday night at midnight E.S.T. of each week. I will confirm receit, will check it over, then post it sometime Monday.
-Vicious, evil cliffhangers (in DW's best tradition) admired (albeit cursed by the next poor b@stard on the list of writers). Simple 'total re-booting' cliffhanger solutions tend to be Frowned upon as Tacky.
-The only valid excuse for not turning your chapter in on time is illness or family emergency. Please be aware and don't over-estimate the time you have available for this little project, or forget to take into account what will be going on in your life by the time your turn comes when signing up for this thing. If you need to make sure your chapter isn't due on a certain week, or need to change the date I choose when I schedule it, contact me ASAP. I will send you a reminder e-mail when your week of writing time commences. You have been warned: If you pull a runner on us, I reserve the right to prohibit you from participating in any future IAs or related round-robins run by Moi. The other Mods will probably Remember Your Name as well. (We share info.) This is my New Zero Tolerance Policy about 'no-shows': No more of that multiple weeks of missing chapters bullsh*t like we've had in the past.
Flake on your fellow writers, and you're outta here.
-I reserve the right to do minor (puncutation, spelling) editing without consulting you writers before I officially post the chapter; I also reserve the right to return the chapter to you if I judge it in dire need of a re-write (this has never happened, but hey, you never know).
-Do not introduce original characters to the round-robin and the IA-verse that you wish to retain copyright to. IE: Characters in any given IA need to remain available for use by future IA writers if they should prove to be popular. (And if they should prove NOT to be popular....I suggest you not Sulk).
-You are entitled to any opinion you may hold personally regarding the plot developments perpetrated by your fellow writers. It is, however, considered Bad Form for you to b*tch about it on these public IA lists. (What you do on your own time /in your own space/journal I care not).
*****************************************************
As you sign up, tell me if you want still the Grant9thDoctor or the Eccleston9th(?)Doctor.
Yeah, I know what people wanted last time.
That was then....this is now. So I re-ask.
