Hi, sorry if someone has already asked, but I have two questions!
First, do the writing samples we submit need to be from posted works? Or is it okay to use wips as long as the part we submit is cleaned up and edited?
Also more generally, I don’t have any works that are 3000 words or under, so is it okay to use just a en excerpt of a work to fit the word limit, even though it isn’t the full fic?
Thank you!!

Hi, there!
Samples do not have to be from posted works, and excerpts are fine as long as it is a scene that can stand out on its own. Adding context to understand that excerpt better also would be appreciated!
