Hello! <33 wondering what kind of physical merch will be made for the zine? will it be revealed later?
Hello Nonny! We do have an ideal plan for merch items right now, but it won't be 100% definitive until after the pitch period. We'll let everyone know more around that time 💙

Hi there! Currently filling out the writing form, and was curious if you would prefer 3 separate links for each piece or 1 singular link to a google doc containing all 3 works. ( I'm looking to provide 2 excerpts and 1 link to a completed work on ao3)
Hey! Either way works, so go with whichever is easier for you 💜

Does choosing to apply to both the sfw and nsfw zine mean 2 pieces have to be written for both categories?
Hey nonny! Writers are only required to write one piece per zine if accepted to both 💜

hii !! I have two questions to the lovely mods: can excerpts be from works from other fandoms? (Mainly written pieces)
And I want to know if gore/cannibalism/blood/etc. falls under the nsfw category? Thank you !
Hello nonny! Absolutely, you can use works from other fandoms as samples. For the purpose of this zine, NSFW is defined as sexually explicit material, so gore, cannibalism, blood etc. would fall under the purview of our SFW zine 💙

Hey there, would it be too forward to ask what specifically the team is looking for when reviewing samples? I have several pieces to select from but I'm having trouble determining what would be best to provide.
Hey Nonny, unfortunately, we don't have a specific answer for you. Submit the samples you feel best showcase your work! We realize that can be tough to decide, we've all done it several times for our own applications in the past, but it's something everyone has to decide for themselves. Let us know if you have any other questions! 🫶

Hi again! Can the same idea/prompt be part of the zine as different types? For example, an SFW art and a NSFW fic following the same idea/prompt? Basically a one-person Collab.
Hello again! The SFW and NSFW zines will be separate, so opportunity for a collab between the two is limited. Someone could potentially use the same prompt in both (if it was approved for both, we can't guarantee that ahead of time), but both pieces would have to be able to be read/viewed independently of each other as well, since not everyone will purchase both zines.
Within just one category (SFW or NSFW), if one person is accepted as both an author and an artist, they'll be welcome to essentially collab with themselves and create art and fic for the same idea. 💙

Hey sorry, I just saw a post saying the extension deadline is January 15th, but the twitter header says its until the 20th and I'm a bit confused now
Hey! A small typo on our part, sorry for the confusion. Applications will stay open until January 20th 🫶

Hi there! Follow up to the excerpts question: If we have a sample that falls slightly above or below the intended range, but it is a completed piece, would that be an acceptable sample to submit in pairing with excerpts? Or must it fit strictly within the range?
Hey! We can give 250 words leeway in either direction 💙

Hello, mod! Well, I love to think that Mei Mei took Nanami with her and Ui Ui to Malaysia, even if it was against his will. Would that be acceptable in the zine?
Hello Nonny! This idea definitely fits within the parameters of the zine, though the exact content of the idea would determine whether it would go in the SFW or NSFW version. Let us know if you have any other questions 💙

Hello! For writer applications, are ao3 links okay or would you prefer Google drive?
Hey nonny! AO3 links are fine for complete samples, but if you're providing an excerpt, please link to a document containing ONLY that excerpt 💙

Hi there! When submitting samples, is it ok to provide excerpts from longer pieces or should we only submit complete works that fit within the 2.5-3.5k range?
Hey Nonny! Excerpts from longer pieces are completely alright, just ensure at least 1 sample is complete on its own 💜

Hello! I wanted to ask if shipping will be available worldwide?
Hello Nonny!
Shipping will be available worldwide with a few exceptions. For reasons outside of our control, we'll likely be unable to ship to the following regions:
• North Korea
• Iran
• Syria
• Russia
• Crimea Region
This list may change by the time shipping rolls around. When pre-orders open, we'll have an updated list of non-shipping regions on the store website.

For the NSFW Zine: you said you'll allow all Ships - are there any hard NO s concerning dead dove elements? (Incest, underage, eroguro, etc.)
Hello nonny, we have no hard limits on the NSFW zine. We just ask that people avoid ideas that would change the fundamental nature of the JJK verse (soulmate AUs, omegaverse, etc.) or the original premise (i.e. age swaps etc.) 💛

Will the zine and merch be physical?
Yes! The zine and merch will be physical 💛

Hi! I'm thinking of my pitches for applying and was wondering: do you only want pitches for the later parts of the manga, or do you also accept things like 'geto didn't leave' or 'Yuuji didn't swallow the finger' types of divergence.
Thanks in advance!
Hey nonny! Our main focus is on alt endings, but we accept any type of canon-divergent pitches that don't change the fundamental nature of the JJK verse.
For example, we don't allow Soulmate AUs, because they create an inherent difference in the way the universe works, but something like Geto never leaving that's purely driven by different character choices works perfectly!
Thanks for your enthusiasm in the zine! 💛
