Frequently asked questions

✾ What is a Minibang?A mini-bang is a fandom event that promotes collaboration between artists, writers, and readers. During a Minibang, writers will write fanfiction (adhering to a minimum word count), and artists will create a visual art piece to accompany it. When the event deadline arrives, all fics and art will be released together creating an explosion- or ‘Mini Bang’- of new fandom content!

✾ What are the details for this Minibang?The Alberose Minibang opens on May 12 for participants and will take place over approximately 4 months. Fics will be at minimum 1k words, and be accompanied by a minimum artist contribution of 1 complete piece. All worka can be safe or not safe for work

✾ Can I sign up as an artist and a writer for the same event?Yes! But please take a moment to consider whether or not you’ll have the time for this.

✾ How will artists and writers be matched for this challenge?During sign-up, writers will be asked to provide a brief summary of the fic they plan to write. These summaries will be posted anonymously on the Minibang discord for artists to look through. Artists who sign-up will be given access to the anonymous bank of fic summaries, and they will select fics that they would be interested in creating content for. Once the summaries are posted, artists will have six days to look over all of the summaries.The summary claim form will ask for the following: your email, Twitter username, discord handle, and whether or not you are willing to work with more than one writer in case of an uneven number of writers and artists, and your top 5 summaries that you would like to work with in order of preference. The mods will match and pair artists and writers on a roughly first come first serve basis - meaning the sooner you submit your choices the more likely it is that you will receive one of your top 5 picks.
