When do contributor emails go out?
July 8th-9th. You can check the schedule on our website to find out more about the dates!
Do samples have to be MHA related? Would it be okay if the optional scenario if MHA is required is only 1k words?
Samples do not only have to be MHA-related; they can be from any fandom, story, and so on, as long as it isn't mainly NSFW. Also, the word count is mostly a matter of preference but doesn't have to be exactly followed to the finest detail.
Are profollos and self descriptions part of the sign up a hard requirement for signing up? If so, will it affect applications?
Portfolios are optional; they can be websites, images, or something that basically describes your past experience or skills. If you are referring to the question that mentions giving a summary of your experience, judging from what is said, that may affect your chance of being accepted. Please note that past zine experience and having a portfolio are not mandatory, but an explanation of your qualities, your reasoning for wanting to join, and samples of your work are.
The self-descriptions are just so you can explain who you are, what you like, and stuff like that! This will not affect your chances of getting accepted; it's only for the moderators to know, and if accepted, the self-description/bio can be changed later on!
Who is the head mod?
Hello! Head Moderator speaking here, coincidentally enough!
The Head Moderator is Aiko, full username AikoDaiko! You can see information about me on our website: https://realities-visions.carrd.co/
I hope this will answer any questions about me that you may have!
If you don’t mind me asking, but what experience does your finance mod have?
Our finance moderator has been a part of two MHA zines. In both zines, she was a finance moderator, but in one of them, she took part as an extra beta-reader. She also has experience with finance in the real world in general.
Will you allow any wordcount leeway for examples?
Yes! The word count is mostly a matter of preference but doesn't have to be exactly followed to the finest detail.
