Writing Guidelines

Writing Submission Guidelines

1.First and foremost, no explicit sexual content will be tolerated in the submissions.

2.As PPPemberley mandates all its material be rated PG-13, we would ask your submissions to be the same. Moderated cursing, suggestive content, and violence, as long as it’s nothing out of control, are acceptable.

3.If we find content extreme in any of the aforementioned categories, the submission will be returned to the author for editing and will include suggestions on how to do so.

4.Your submissions should be in proper paragraph formatting, however, the editors will assist any accepted work if the author has difficulty doing so.

5.The submissions are not expected to be the greatest works since the dawn of time, but we do expect a good deal of effort put into them. Coherent plots, proper characterization, well-thought out dialogue, creative imagery, and correct term usage are all necessary aspects for excellent fan fiction.

6. All submissions must be completed before they will be posted.

Review and Editing Process

1.Editors will first review the submissions and deem them acceptable or not. Not every submission will be accepted, nor should you consider it a personal attack if yours isn’t chosen. The editor will provide an explanation as to why the submission was unacceptable and will provide some routes for the author to improve upon.

2.You will receive e-mails saying that your submission was received, usually by the editor of your particular work, and whether or not it is acceptable. If accepted, expect e-mails about any issues pertaining to your submission and feel free to e-mail your editor about any concerns as well.

3.The final edition of your submission will be e-mailed to you for your approval. To clarify, editing refers to sentence structure, paragraph formatting, spelling, etc. Deleting paragraphs/sentences, altering character behavior, or any change to the author’s style will not occur. We will, however, suggest such changes to the author, if deemed necessary, and allow the chance to do so. All editing will be indicated by Microsoft Word Track Changes.

4.After obtaining your approval, your fan fiction will be posted.

Submitting Procedure

1.Please submit your works as attachments and not within the body of the e-mail itself and label the e-mail [FANFIC] for the subject line.

2..doc and .pub, will be accepted. Any others will be rejected. No mulitple submissions will be accepted.

3.If using MS Word format, please do not use the “Save as Web Page” option. Leave the document in the regular MS Word format.

4.Submit all fan fiction to info@pppemberley.infinites.net. By following the aforementioned guidelines, the process will run smoother and faster. We thank you for all your hard work and look forward to numerous submissions.

{PPPemberley would like to thank RPGamer for the use of their writing guidelines.}
