Hello everyone,

With author emails coming in thick and fast for the Called Challenge, I’d rate the enthusiasm level on par with s01e10 Nightmares Willow making fun of Xander for his clown fear. Giddy and bubbly and with a grin from ear to ear.  

For any fence-sitting, Watcher-like authors currently pondering the decision of whether or not to sign up: don’t take your brooding lessons from Angel… Be like Spike and swagger up to the challenge like you’re the biggest bad in the room.
Come on, sign up. You know you wanna. 

For participating authors: if your visualisation of your fic is as clear as Dru’s visions of stars on the ceiling, and you can picture the art that has to accompany your words, now is the time to get those banner requests in.

All you need to do is shoot me an email (address available at the bottom of this post) with a combination of the following information. The first four dot points are required, the rest are optional.

Required information:
• Fic title:
• Author penname:
• Story blurb (or a short summary if you're not at that point):
• Permission to share your email address with the artist upon claiming: YES / NO

Optional extra requests:
• Season/episode (so the artist knows the kinds of images to look for):
• Feature characters:
• Colour theme:
• Mood/Style (dramatic, simple, light-hearted, happy, etc):
• Other (special requests for objects, specific images, etc):

If you are looking for something specific, give me as much information as you think the artist will need. Alternatively, if you are open to the artist experimenting, then just give me the required info.

We'll be creating a master list of the banner requests for the artists on our site to browse, and let you all know when it's live.

And that's the sitch. Authors, you can email me your requests at: angelic.amy.fic@gmail.com

Happy writing!
