I don't know if this is listed anywhere or answered anywhere; but is there a list of types of contributions allowed for writers? For example, poetry or play-styled epics for this event?

Our writer requirements at the moment are that written works should be previously unpublished, be inspired by the theme of fairy tales/fables/myths, and fall between the word count of 5-15k. Whether prose or play-style, as long as it is within these requirements you are fine!

And while we had not originally anticipated people wanting to contribute poetry, we don’t see why they shouldn’t be allowed to! Due to their nature, poems will not be required to meet the minimum word count of 5k—though, we do kindly ask they be kept under 15k like prose.

Thank you for your question! We should have our event website up soon, which will have a much more comprehensive look at the mini bang and participant requirements. And thanks to this ask, we’ll make sure to add that poems are welcome, as well :D
