Hello there!

Is it okay to submit a comic book? Black and white with some color (Sin City style). Any restrictions on length? Content? Violence, boobies, etc.

I don't think we've ever had one before, but we do accept fiction, and that's just a different medium of fiction, so I say yes! (Hopefully Jester, who does the layout, doesn't have any technical issue with including it. If so, I'm sure he'll let us know...)

With that said, our guidelines include this:

As we have many young RL fans browsing this site, we do intend to hold to WotC guidelines for what is appropriate in an article with respect to language, sexual and violent content (in a word, avoid harsh language, explicit violence and sexuality, and especially when those three are somehow mixed). We reserve the right to edit out or tone down such references.

This doesn't mean you have to completely remove mature content in your articles: veiled references are good help here, if you let the readers read between the lines.

So no boobies, please. And keep the violence to PG-13 levels. (yes, it's horror, but it doesn't have to be gory.)

I'm afraid that will be all for me this year. Real Life has not been conducive to finishing Nova Vaasa, so that'll be for next year, I think.

[Gonzoron of the FoS]

Last chance... today's the day... Anyone?

(We've also received ManofEvil's submission. Joel did you get it?)

[Rock of the Fraternity]

Annnnd entry sent! Whew, just barely on time. ^^; Work was kicking my butt... It's only a short little item, though.

[Mistmaster]

[REDACTED] is my real name, I would prefer it was used my pen name, Mistmaster.

[Gonzoron of the FoS]

[REDACTED] is my real name, I would prefer it was used my pen name, Mistmaster.

Done!

[Mistmaster]

Thank you; it was not a problem of privacy however, but I commend the completeness of your hiding my name.

[DarkCrusader]

I did email you my comic book. You did get it right?

[Rock of the Fraternity]

Was my submission any good?

[Manofevil]

I intend to send something else in the next two weeks. You may publish it this year or next year. I won't care. Also, I would prefer my submissions to be credited to my Pen name which may be found in the in The Book of Sacrifices: http://www.kargatane.com/sacrifices/bosacpdf.zip in which I was credited with 'The Old Brewery'. Thank you.

I did email you my comic book. You did get it right?

I do not think we did. Can you resend to QTR@fraternityofshadows.com?

Was my submission any good?

I'm sure it was, but we didn't see it. can you resend?

Sorry, the mailing list software is a little wonky sometimes. If you don't receive a confirmation email from one of us within a day of resending, send me a PM and I'll give you personal email to try sending it to.
