Four more days until gifts are due! Here's how to submit:

OVERVIEW

At Small Gifts, you submit your gift by posting directly, letter-perfect and ready to go, to [livejournal.com profile] rs_small_gifts. The community is in moderated status, which means that your post will remain hidden and saved in the queue until we approve/post it in December. It will appear exactly as you submitted it, so make sure you've put on the finishing touches.

FINISHING TOUCHES

1) All gifts of fic should be beta read. Drop by the beta lounge to find a beta or offer your services!

2) Please use the following header to provide information about your gift:



You can delete the notes line if you do not have notes. Please retain the contents or warnings line, though! If you don't have any warnings, simply type "none" where you see "insert warnings here." You should let readers know of major character death, graphic description of violence, rape or non-con, or underage sex.

3) Forget something? Need to tinker? Your post is inaccessible to you while it is in the queue. If you need to fix something, just e-mail us at rs.small.gifts at gmail dot com and ask us to reject your post from the queue. You can then resubmit.

POSTING INSTRUCTIONS

1) Please format your subject line as follows: Gift type: Title for Recipient.

For example:

Art: Deck the Halls of Grimmauld Place for lily_evans
Fic: Catty Fireside Stories for peter_pettigrew

No need for quotes or italics with your title or any formatting of your recipient's user name. Clean and simple!

2) Place your gift itself under an lj-cut, using your title, your first line, or a short quotes as the lj-cut text. Here's how to do that, if you have any questions.

3) If anything goes awry with your formatting or submission, your mods will reject your post and ask you to resubmit. Please keep an eye on your inbox in case we need to alert you to a problem!

POSTING TO OTHER SITES

Every day between December 1 and December 31, your mods will post a gift from the moderation queue. As soon as your gift has appeared on [livejournal.com profile] rs_small_gifts, you're free to crosspost to your own journal or wherever you'd like.

If you've been archiving your work at Archive of Our Own, you have the option to add it to this year's collection. There's a tutorial showing how to add a work to a collection here.

INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING FURTHER?

Want to create a second gift? Want to participate but didn't sign up in October? Look for chances to create second gifts and participate in an open round after first gifts are all up. We also almost always need some pinch hitters, so let us know if you're interested.
