Mini Fest Reminder & Submission Guidelines!

[mini_fest_mod]

First of all... If you have not yet signed up and you'd still like to be part of the fest, please comment HERE! We'd love to have you!

The submission date for mini_fest is on November 25th this year (in just about two and a half weeks), but if you need more time, please let us know! We are happy to work with you to create more holiday fun for the Harry Potter fandom!

---

Here are a few things that will make your mod's job much easier as you prepare to send in your submissions:

- Please send your submissions to: hpminifest at gmail.com

- Include your name in the email subject as well as 'fic' or 'art'.

- Include your header in the email as well as your document.

- Artists, as this is an anon fest, please do not sign your art. If you'd like us to provide a fest watermark for you, we are happy to do so!

- Please place an lj-cut tag in your story.
The lj-cut text should be "The Title of your Fic". < lj-cut text="FIC TITLE" >

- Check the formatting of your fic to ensure there are manual line breaks between paragraphs.

- Include all other other html coding that is needed. You may want to test post your submission in a private entry to your journal before submitting to be sure that the coding is correct.

- The fic/art header appears below.
