Topic: Story Request Guidelines (Please Read)
So, okay.

To make this "easier" and more efficient for us all (assuming I get requests, anyhow), I thought I'd post a guideline thread to help us along. =)

Like I said before, if I'm not familiar with the series, I'll still try to carry out your idea, but no promises that it will be "perfect" (for obvious reasons that I'm not familiar with it).

And also, only one-shots here, people, because between my regular life that's increasingly busy and the stories I'm currently continuing, I will not have the time to carry on anything OTHER than one-shots for you. :)

So, without further adieu, here are the (simple -- hopefully) guidelines for when submitting your requests:

1) When making a new thread posting, have the name of the series and genre you'd like it to encompass within the title. That is, if it's a movie, and you want it to be a romance sort of one-shot based upon it, then you'd write something like:

"Princess Diaries 2, Romance."

This will make both of our lives easier, trust me. :)

2) Please write the following before you write more about the story idea:

"SERIES: Harry Potter and Winx Club

GENRE: Drama and Angst

STORY SUMMARY IDEA: It's set in Harry's fifth year, and the fairies' second year, and Harry is upset over his break up with Cho while Prince Sky is upset over losing Bloom to the dark side, and the two talk it out with one another. NOT a slash story, but obviously a crossover."

A brief establishment like that before I actually say yay/nay to being able to do it, and thus dive into it will help me know what I'm up against, so to speak.

3) However, when you're carrying on in the post (that is, writing more about this idea), please be as specific as possible with what you'd like to see (or read, rather) happen. By that I mean, if it's a W.I.T.C.H. one-shot you'd like to see happen, and about Will and Caleb, for example, write something like:

"I have this story idea for Will and Caleb, where it's the day of Caleb's wedding to Cornelia, but Will arrives to try one last time to win his love.

It's a romance story, and all of the other Guardians are involved, they're obviously older, around 24 or so, and Will's hair is longer while Cornelia's hair is shorter."

Specifics like that will help paint a better picture of where you'd like this one-shot to go, and what limitations I do/do not have while writing it.

Thank You. :)
