How it works:

Claim a series (or 'Original' for original fiction!) and a character, a pairing or the general series, along with a table (or more).  Multiple claims of the same series, character or pairing are allowed.  

Write letters from the POV of your claim.  If you claimed Dr Who, the letters are from the good Doctor addressed to...whomever you want.  If you claim a pairing, they can write to each other or about each other, etc. If you pick the general series, anyone in the series can write to anyone else in the series.  

Your entry must include the text of a letter written by your claimed character(s).  There may also be the story of writing the letter, sending the letter, losing the letter, reading the letter, whatever you want, as long as the text of a letter is in the entry! It can be just the letter, though. 

Each entry should be 500 words, minimum.

Each entry should include the following information in the header (the order doesn't matter, as long as it's all there).

Title:
Author:
Fandom or Original:
Rating: 
Table: 
Prompt:
Warnings: (if none, say none.)

Tag your entry with your name and the fandom (or original).

Entries rated over PG-13 please member-lock to the comm.

ETA: 

Entries can be links to your own writing comm or journal, as long as the link is not access locked so we can all read it!

Do entries have to be posted in the comm or can we post them in our own journals and leave a link here?

Sorry to pester with all the questions, but thoughts keep occurring to me as I try to pick a table and who to write to/from (lol).

1. Can we write for crossovers between two fandoms? (e.g. letters from a character in one fandom to a character in another, making reference to both fandoms)

2. How many claims can we submit at a time?

3. Is there a time limit on filling claims?

4. Do we post one letter/fic at a time or wait until we've filled all the prompts and then post? (If it's one fill at a time, how many posts can we put up a day?)

Okay, I'll go away and stop pestering you now ;)

Thank you - I just thought I'd best ask as I know some comms have set rules for these kinds of things and I didn't want to get it wrong before I start :D

I shall be back at the weekend to lay claim! Incentive to get some of my other commitments completed so I can start something new and shiny :D

Tag your entry with your name and the fandom (or original).

We aren't allowed to make our own tags (not sure if that's something we should be able to do, or not).

Do we have to wait for approval before we start to post? I made a claim back on April 29th, but haven't had a response, so I'm not sure. I'm starting to work on these now, so just wondering... Thanks.
