Frequently Asked Questions

If you leave optional details blank and don't provide a letter from a week after assignments go out, your writer has mod approval to write whatever they want, provided the fic matches requested fandom and character(s) (if recipient requests more than one character, the writer has mod approval to use how many requested characters they see fit for the fic, including just one requested character out of the bunch).

When composing optional details and/or a letter, besides prompts (general or specific) or things you like/dislike about that canon and characters, here are a few things you can ask yourself how you feel about:

-alternate universes/alternate realities
-character death, canon or otherwise
-point of views (first, second, third)
-threesomes/moresomes
-Alpha/Beta/Omega verse (specific tropes attached to this, anything goes, nothing at all, etc)
-porn kinks
-non-porn kinks (this also include gen non-porn kinks)
-crossovers (specific fandom crossovers/any fandom crossover?)

Last but not least, general/specific likes and dislikes.
