ADMIN POST: Formatting reminder

[cesperanza.livejournal.com]

On behalf of the SGA_Flashfic minions, could I remind you to put your title and authorname in the subject line, i.e. "Sheppard's Fantabulous Day," by Ingrammckay? It helps them a lot when they're archiving.

Thanks, and we return you to your regularly scheduled challenge responses.

re: cross-posting clarification

Hi, thanks for maintaining this lj; it's truly lovely and makes for a great reading list. I'll love to contribute when inspiration strikes me for a challenge. :)

I have an OT question: I was curious if challenge answers may be announced in other places. (i.e. not actually post the story, but a link to it) I have seen this done before, for instance on the mckay_sheppard lj, and I wondered if it was against the 'no cross-posting during the challenge' rule.

Thanks a lot!

This is a totally on topic question! *G* The way it works is--we get exclusive rights to the story until you see a "closing challenge" post from the admins. This means that the story appears on the sga_flashfiction website only (or, if it's really just too long for LJ, on a private page that is linked ONLY from the SGA website.) However, you may post a link on your own LJ publicizing your story and/or directing people to the sga_flashfic site (i.e. "Hey, I just posted a story for the sga flashfic darkfic challenge--go here and look.")

What we're really trying to do is to keep things centralized for the duration of the challenge--like, to promote sga_flashfic as a place where you can get fiction that, at least for a while, you can't get anywhere else, and to bring all the readers together on that one page. AFTER the challenge closes, the story's yours again and you can post it wherever you want to: mazel tov.

Make sense?

hey, thanks! (for the list and the comment both) I'd been wondering about that, too.
