Today is it! And a general note to everyone else.

Authors! Today is the day where your rough drafts are due. We already have four drafts in and thank you for the people who turned them in. Please send your drafts to whitecollar.bb.mods@gmail.com and you have until tomorrow morning at 10 am Central Time to get them in! We lowered the rough draft word count to 7K to 8K as long as you can get your final draft word count up to 10K by the new deadline. Please use the following header when you turn in your draft:

We, the mods, have decided on something. It seems silly to have the start posting date over the Labor Day weekend due to family plans and other plans and the like. So the final due date for both authors and artists is now September 1st. The posting dates will start September 7th and go until we're done with both fics and art. Around August 15th, I'll put up a selection date post for when people want to post their fics and art.

Hi, artist here. I see that the summaries are still coming in this morning. Could you give us an estimate on what time the art claim post may go up? I would really love to be around for it, but can't spend all day near the computer.

Just emailed you the permissions to view our gdoc. If there are any issues, please let us know :)

Hmm, sadly I'm not going to be able to make it. I'm sitting at just over 6k, and though the weekend could bring me up to the wc... the fic itself is longer and I don't believe would be finished in time (even if I go without art).

If there's no penalty I'd like to try again next year (& hopefully a less complicated plot) and maybe be a cheer-lead those who are still participating
