Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Bang?

A Bang is a fandom event that brings together fans, writers, artists and others to team up and create content. Bangs usually have a particular theme, such as a character, ship, or trope. Many Bangs have writers create summaries of their work and then artists pick from a blind list which fic they want to make art to accompany.

How is a Bang different than a Zine?

Both Bangs and Zine's are a collection of fan works.

Zines will publish all of the content in either a physical or digital form to be distributed either for free or for money as one cohesive collection. Zines can be distributed with various merch as well.

With a Bang, the fan works are not distributed as a bundle. We will set up a collection on AO3 for fics to be a part of, and will retweet any pieces posted on twitter.

Do I have to make an NSFW piece?

Both SFW and NSFW content are still welcomed! Participants will need to be 18+ to participate and they will be allowed to choose what they want to create.

Can I join in a group with my friends?

Absolutely! When it comes time for authors to share summaries of their work for artists to pick from, there will be an option to communicate that with the mod team. The artist/beta of the group will also need to confirm they want to join this group.

I'm not sure if I'm good enough to join the event. What if I don't get picked?

Everyone is invited regardless of skill level or experience! The application process is just so we have a headcount to properly match up authors, artists, and betas.

How will writers be matched with Artists and Betas?

We will match creation groups up using a blind pick process. Artists and betas will be given a list of summaries with the associated tags. They will rank their favorites (either top 5 or top 3). The mod team will match people up trying to get everyone one of their top picks.
