HxH Big Bang 2021 Sign-Up

Hello and Welcome to the Sixth Hunter x Hunter Big Bang!  Scroll to the bottom to sign up!  Read the rest of this post for rules and deadlines!  

*WHAT’S A BIG BANG?*

There are several variations, but generally a Big Bang is a fandom event where authors write longer stories (the minimum word length varies), and artists draw illustrations for those stories. This will result in an influx of new works for the hxh Fandom to enjoy and as an added bonus, it will encourage collaboration between Fandom writers and artists.

*SO HOW WILL THIS WORK?*

Authors will sign up to write a fic, and after they know what they plan to write, submit a summary of their story. Artists will then be able to claim the fic they want based ONLY on the blind summary (so make them good, writers!). From that point the writers will be given a deadline to finish their larger work and then the artists will be able to make their accompanying piece. 

*NEW FOR 2021*

*Based on feedback from last year, we have decided to allow the option for writer-artist collaborations this year!  See below for how this will work. 

*This year we are planning not one, not two, but three reveal dates!   The first set of stories and illustrations will be posted on July 1st; the second set on July 8th; and the final set on July 15th.   Each author and artist will be contacted with the date they should post on.  This is to allow everyone in fandom enough time to properly read and appreciate all the new stories and art.  <3

*Also new this year, please be ready to post your entire story or art piece on the date you are assigned! 

*FOR AUTHORS*

*Stories must be a min of 5,000 words in length. The max is 50,000 words.

*Content will not be restricted. You may write gen, het, slash, or any combination thereof; AU’S and crossovers are welcome; any rating (not explicit or nsfw), pairing, tense, pov, or voice are also allowed. 

*You may use a WIP so long as it has never been publicly available.  No submitting a chapter of a work you’ve already posted somewhere else, now.  Stories must be complete, new, and proofread.  

*Multiple authors can collaborate on a single story. 

*A summary of your fic is due February 22ND. You will need to have enough of a solid idea to state your rating, possible length, as well as any possible triggers or pairings. Please refrain from wildly changing your summary or the idea of your fic mid-way.  

*All summaries will be posted blind sometime after Feb 22ND. You will be matched with an artist based (only) on the summary of the story you plan to write. 

*If you indicated you would be willing to collaborate, we will try to match you with an artist who also wishes to collaborate.  In the case this is not possible, you will still write your story as in past years, without knowing who is illustrating.  Surprises are fun!  

*A completed draft of your story, including all major scenes and the ending (so artists can choose which scene to illustrate), is due by May 14th.  

*We will contact you if there is a problem, and advise you along the way 

*FOR ARTISTS*

*After summaries are posted, all fic claims will be due by March 5th. These are on a first come, first serve basis. Any extra artists or fics will be matched by the hxhbb mods.

*If you would like to collaborate with a writer during the draft process, please indicate this on your sign up form.  We’ll only match you with a writer who also wishes to collaborate.  If this is not possible, you’ll illustrate as in past years, without knowing who is writing. Surprises are fun!  

*If you are collaborating, you’ll be given your writer’s contact information.  If you are not collaborating, you will be given a complete draft of the story you chose by the end of May.

*Your minimum requirement per fic is one illustration. One is required but if you feel inspired you are welcome to create more than one.

*Which part of the fic you illustrate is up to you.  You choose the chapter, scene, or even an image that sums up the spirit of the whole piece.  

*Art can be mixed media, digital, ink, animation, etc - anything you can think of. Have fun with it!

*All art must be completed by your assigned reveal date (July 1st, 8th, or 15th). 

*MISCELLANEOUS*

*Wanna participate but not as an artist or author? Please consider signing up as a beta reader. Betas are much appreciated and a much needed resource for fic writers. As a beta you will be matched with an author based on their needs and your preferences.

*We accept pinch hitters!  If you sign up as a pinch hitter, you’ll be illustrating a story where the original artist had to drop out.  

*Due to tumblrs changes, please consider no NSFW. If a fic/art is nsfw, we will not reblog them (and the exchange will be done privately)

*Need suggestions for a theme or are low on ideas? Here are some quick suggestions: new starts and new year resolutions/memories old and new/ friends and family/strangers into lovers or lovers into strangers / unexpected meetings/ simple pleasures/ role swaps/ new adventures

*Even if you are collaborating, please maintain public secrecy on the story/art you are working on.  Please only discuss in private (including a private discord channel we’ll make specifically for this purpose). The fun part of a Big Bang is the surprise on the reveal date.  

*If you have any questions feel free to message @shalnarkonice or @hxhhasmysoul or @subdee on tumblr. We would love to help

●DEADLINES●

*Author/Artist sign ups open: IMMEDIATELY
