Round One: Anon Authors Revealed + Collection Re-Opening Soon! ♥

[crystalball_mod]

The works posted by the Anon Participants have officially been de-anoned*! I thank all of you who participated or attempted to in the anon period! The fact that this fest has inspired even one person makes me very happy~

Of course, now that the Anon Participants have been revealed, the Collection will re-open for everyone else at 11:59 PM UTC tomorrow! Please note that it will be acting in a moderated capacity (so don't be concerned if your work does not show up in the Collection list); this is to ensure that the works are revealed simultaneously when the Collection closes once more.

Also, if you would like to add your work to the Collection, but don't have time to before the deadline, please contact me as soon as you can so we can work something out!

*I apologize profusely for the slight delay today. Unfortunately, Internet has been spotty here because of today's bad weather.

Thank you for running the fest! You did a great job! I'm really glad this fest happened, because I wouldn't have been able to come up with the story I did without your reading, and I wouldn't have finished without the deadline.

Just as a thought, maybe next round could include amnesty for works that didn't quite make it this time? It's not a big deal, just I imagine there are people out there who wish they had been able to do more (and not just me...?).

Anyway, thank you again!

I would have really appreciated an amnesty period, too. It turned out the spread I got was perfect for a story I'd been working on already, but the piece was too long to finish in the fest window (and also, this time of year is kind of killer for writing time--I should have known better!). I'm still going to finish the piece, and I'll hat tip the spread I got when i do, so it's all good. And I do hope to sign up next time as well. It's such a great idea for a writing fest!

Ah yes, this time of year is indeed a killer writing-wise! Don’t you love it when things line up like that?

I think it’s a great idea too! I actually got it when I realized that a fic I wrote fit one specific tarot card like a glove and then the idea just grew in the back of my mind! :)

About the Amnesty period (I’ll quote what I commented below): I’ve actually been thinking about that. We can discuss it more on the after-fest discussion post, but I’ve been toying with the idea of having all past collections open when I open the current one. For example, in April, I would re-open R1 with R2 for people who still would like to finish their fills with the R1 prompt to post it then. Of course, I’d keep track of any new fills added and include them in the round-up!

Awww, thank you for your kind words! It was worth it just to see people use their creativity and I’m really happy that I helped inspire your story. <3
