Hello, Creatives,
How is 2021 treating you guys? I hope we all enjoy and be more successful in our endeavors this year. On this note, to all the writers present on India-forum who enchant and entangle us with their magical words and exhilarating concepts, this post is for you guys. The non-writers don't lose your heart, as Sir Francis Bacon said "Knowledge is Power" you know guys can go through this as well because we never know a future writer is hiding within you all!
While weaving a new world through your creativity, I am sure you people must have wondered how to give your work a bit more professional touch, what you can do so that it reaches wider sets of the audience, what can you do so that your work gets featured here on IF. So to all your queries, let me guide you through few rules after crossing which you can get your work featured.
Get a fresh professional perspective on your script and edit it: It's extremely important for a writer to know how their work looks from a reader's point of view. Third-party perspective help point out the mistakes which being the creator is often overlooked owing to attachment with the work, so it helps perfect the work.
It also important to have a neutral person pov because let's face it, your friends will be happy to review your work, but they will be a bit biased about it and will hesitate slightly before critiquing you. So, make sure to have your work Beta read before submitting.
Get a cover for your work: Book cover contains a bit of the soul of your literary work. It gives the readers a glimpse of what they are going to expect, it piques their interest so that they click on your story for the summary.
Synopsis: Write a concise account about your story, so that you can easily pitch your work to readers and compel them to keep reading.
Prepare your submission: Assemble everything, i.e. your story after beta reading along with cover and summary and post it. After that send the link our your post to Fanfiction Editors for reviewing and publishing it.
- Once you have done everything mentioned above, you can post your story link in this thread.
- You can only post one story per month, and your story will undergo a selection process by beta readers.
- You are free to submit your acquaintance story as well, the selection process is going to be the same.
- Your story must be posted or migrated to the new fanfiction site, please do follow the migration steps (https://www.indiaforums.com/forum/topic/5153540)
- If you are submitting fiction then be sure that your work contains 10 chapters, and if you are submitting a short story then it must be a completed one.
- The work can be old or recent, as long as it meets the criteria.
- You cannot resubmit your story at any point of time.
- You need to post the migrated story link.
I hope I was able to help you guys in answering a few of your musings. Good luck and keep writing!
Thank You
