Hi guys!

First of all, we ([livejournal.com profile] roebling, [livejournal.com profile] loudestoflove, and myself) wanted to say a huge thank you to every author who participated, signed up, wrote amazing stories (Seriously! Holy crap we were so impressed with the amazing range and quality of the stories we got this year! you guys are awesome ♥ ), beta'd, encouraged their friends, checked in with us on time (EVEN WHEN WE MADE MISTAKES, sorry to the two of you whose drafts we totally lost /o\ /o\ /o\ THANK YOU FOR NOT HATING US we're so sorry "ORZ) and generally just...were awesome.

You guys made this fest so much more than we could have ever hoped for. I'm also sorry that I'm the one writing this post because I am a big damn sap and now you all have to listen to it but like. THANK YOU GUYS. WE LOVE YOU A LOT. WE LOVE THIS FANDOM A LOT AND WE'RE SO HAPPY. FEEEELSSSSSS.

Unfortunately, we also have to report that after giving them every chance and extension, we have some authors who haven't responded to our attempts to get in touch with them, or turned in their final drafts :|||| We believe it's really important that everyone who wrote a story also receives one (it's an exchange, people), so we are moving on to a pinch-hit round.

The PINCH-HIT Round will run from September 6th to September 13th.  Authors who offer to pinch-hit will have one week to write a story for their recipient. Once they turn in a final draft to us, they can post immediately, but they must post a completed story by September 13th. This is really important. We have authors who put tons of time and effort into writing, and still haven't received anything in return, and that sucks. We're going to do everything we can to make sure they get a story in return for all of their hard work--we have very, very large spreadsheets and none of you have been forgotten. Some pinch-hits are already being written as I write this, but the mods can't do everything, and we're going to need some help from you guys.

If you would like to volunteer to pinch-hit, comment below with your preferred email address. All comments will be screened. Keep in mind that you may receive almost ANYTHING, so if there is something that you absolutely feel you cannot write 1,000 words of, please note it in the comment. You will receive an email if you are selected. We'd also like to stress that the most important thing here is writing a story, and not producing an epic. Only take on what you know you can accomplish in seven days.

And to keep the rest of us entertained while we wait for some of the stories...stay tuned for details on our (super optional) lightning drabble round! :D :D :D :D

EDIT: Important question! [livejournal.com profile] baekedhyunnie asked: Hi! Do we have to be part of the original authors that signed up for round 2 in order to Pinch-Hit (and participate in the upcoming lightning drabble round)?

NOPE! No you do not! :D As long as you're fine with not receiving a story in return, we'll take any offers to pinch hit - and absolutely everyone can participate in the lightning round!

EDIT2: Anonymous asked I'd like to participate - would it be possible to submit anonymously, though?

Since we can't uh, answer your question without unscreening it and making you non-anonymous, we'll answer it up here - sure, as long as the mods know who you are ;) We're fine with people not wanting to have their LJ name associated with fic, if they'd rather not.

Ok thank you! I would like to volunteer to pinch hit then.
My email address is greenjelliebeen@aol.com.
I would prefer not to write anything rated and with the pairings: Yongguk/Zelo or Himchan/Zelo or Daehyun/Zelo.
Thanks again!
