SEPTEMBER
Not much to see here... we don't have check-ins for this low-stress event.
OCTOBER
Just more time to write... don't worry about defaults. If you have to bow out, the penalty is a later round and less picks for next year, but we don't kick anyone out. We do ask you let us know by October 24, 204 so that we can try to get all of the art written for if you aren't going to be able to finish your claims in time, but you can still keep your claims and post later! If you do not drop out at this point, but do not post by November 15, 2024, you will have defaulted and be subject to a later round and less claims the next year you participate.
NOVEMBER
November 15, 2024: Author Submission Deadline (You can post what you have, even if it is unfinished, so long as your entry is at least 100 words, you've technically finished in our book!) If you do not post by today (unless you are pinch hitting for someone who dropped out or defaulted), then you are considered in default and will have a later first round and less picks for next year.

- It is suggested to have your art posted by August 15, 2024 so that authors can link to it as they finish their pieces.
- You are not required to post your art outside of the gallery; in such cases, authors may link to your gallery slide instead.
