sgabigbang is considering opening its doors to multiple pairings, and I'm a huge fan of this idea, so I'm working to get the 'Other Slash Pairings' section going.... To do that, I need an accurate idea of numbers. I'm interested in authors, yes, but I especially need people willing to make art or vids to go with each story.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE pimp this poll to others -- I am interested in any and all SGA slash pairings that
are not McKay/Sheppard, and I want to catch as many people as I can.
Poll #1149666 SGA Big Bang Other Slash Pairings
Open to:
All, detailed results viewable to:
AllWriters: I would write a Big Bang story with a slash pairing other than McKay/Sheppard
Writers: what slash pairing would you write?
Artists/Vidders: I would create art for a Big Bang story with a slash pairing other than McKay/Sheppard.
Artists/Vidders: what slash pairing(s) would you create art for?
If you need more space, please feel free to leave me a comment.
ETA: For Weir/Sheppard, go here:

http://thisissirius.livejournal.com/258759.htmlETA, the second:There seems to be a bit of confusion as to the timeline, so here are the relevant dates:
March 10th: Writer sign-ups begin, and will close on March 17th.
May 12th:
svmadelyn will ask you on the community if you have 15,000 words yet. There are no consequences if you don't, but you are highly encouraged to have them done.
July 14th: COMPLETED story drafts are due. You will have a beginning, a middle, an ending. It will be completed to the point where, if posted online, you would not die of humiliation. You would only perhaps want to take a wee vacation in Bermuda. These will be sent swiftly to your artists. You may not blind your artists in other words. *g* All that should really be left is tweaking, slight plot point shifts, the like; adding the glossy finish to a beautifully crafted desk! No exceptions will be made - if your stories don't get submitted on this date, you won't get assigned an artist.
July 25th: Final copy of story is to be submitted into the story database. No exceptions will be made.
August 7th: Art, vids due.
August 12th or 13th: Site goes live.
And, the word requirement for this category (OTHER SLASH) is the same as the McShep/Gen category -- 40,000. I have no problem believing any of us could write that much (or more)....
ETA, the third: If you're committed to doing art or writing for OTHER SLASH, please leave your email address in a comment; I've screened everything. Thanks!
