They said to have submissions of your work in by September 16th. After that, they'll decide on who gets to have their work in the zine.

Those people then have to submit their work, either full color art or a short story over 1,000 words long, by sometime in late November.

@Daft and @Ms Ami

Trust me, I'm writing something for it right now, and I'm a hack. I'm sure you could come up with something.

I provided them with three examples of my writing, and I'm actually really worried they won't pick me. I chose my best SU work that's actually been written, but I'm still worried. It'd be my dream to get published like this.

I'm lousy with writing fanfic. I'll be interested where this goes, though, especially with Coelasquid wanting to participate.

My problem with fanfics is that I can't not design huge, epic plots with several "seasons" and individually lengthy stories... which would be incredibly hard to complete even if I didn't already suffer from serious procrastination and schedule slip issues.

I've written oneshots before, but they were edgy derpfests because I was like 12.

I also tried chapter fic like, twice, but I burned out on those (and they were just as edgy as the oneshots).

I usually come up with outlines for stories (usually with an ending in mind) but lose interest partway. Just making that part is enjoyable, so I generally don't consider it a loss.

This seems relevant:

And I too am struggling to write this big epic. Mainly because I can't actually get around to writing. For reasons.

Writing is hard...but ya gotta get in the zone. let nothing break your concentration.

If you really are into what you're writing, then you won't stop...not even to eat your own heart out.

I don't think writing is hard - I think staying motivated is hard, but subject matter is not difficult for me

I feel like my background in the sciences has more or less ruined my ability to write creatively. Everyone sounds robotic, and I catch myself writing in the passive voice all the time.

I like drawing but every time I feel my art is reaching a new high point I realize I still have so much I can improve on.

just for example I wouldn't be able to submit to this zine because I don't know how to paint, what even are colors lol
