Most of the participants have claimed and verified their prompts already, you may check out the prompt claiming list to see which ones has been claimed! If you are a participant and have posted your top 5 chosen prompts but have not yet received a message from us, please do not worry as we will be PM-ing you very soon!
This post is for the fest participants to find themselves a beta reader.
Now you ask, what is a "BETA"? Fanfiction.net defines a beta as a person who reads a work of fiction with a critical eye, with the aim of improving grammar, spelling, characterization, and general style of a story prior to its release to the general public. You can find more about them here.
So participants, if you are in need of a beta-reader, please comment a request for one in this post. If you are a willing beta-reader, then please offer help by commenting your service OR replying to the participant who is looking for a beta.
REMEMBER!
All discussions regarding your fic / art must be done only between you (the participant) and your beta-reader. Allowing more than the absolute minimum number of people to know your prompt defeats the purpose of the big reveal!
