Hi! Will the artist-writer matching process be blind? As in, the artist doesn’t know who the author is when selecting the stories they prefer (if I am understanding the process right)

That’s correct! During the matching process, writers’ names will not be attached to their fic premises. Artists will make their selections based on a list writers submit featuring the following information:

-Working Fic Title
-AO3 Rating (G, T, M, E)
-Fic Summary
-List of Characters
-Ships (if applicable)
-Content Warnings & Triggers (If applicable)
-a Sample Passage (Optional)

In order to help preserve the authors’ anonymity, we do ask that writers try not to talk about their fic premise on social media or in the Discord common room chats until after matching is complete. Throughout the entire event, however, writers ARE welcome to discuss their fics with their fellow authors in the Writer Discord channels!
