I need a fic mod to approve my iffy chapters before I post them



I have chapter 2 completed for my story "The Razors Edge", but I feel I need it approved before I post it. The story is a murder/mystery and this chapter is a little...graphic. Could whoever approves the 'iffy' chapters please get back to me and I will e-mail or pm the chapter to you?? I would appreciate the help! Thanks!!

Hi there smile.gif

There's nobody to handle particular kinds of stories on the ficmod team, but how about you simply send the chapter to ficmods@portkey.org and somebody will have a look at it?

I'll link to this post in the ficmods area so that the others will really notice it okay?

Thank you for the help Szaranea! I just e-mailed it to the address you listed; I don't know if it will be approved but I don't want to post it without being sure. Thanks again!

Protocol for:

How can authors consult the Fic Mod team about iffy chapters?

This applies to writers who've already gotten their Portkey author license. Sometimes they're not sure if their chapter meets PK's rules. If you find yourself in this situation, here's what you can do:
.
.
  • Email your chapter to ficmods@portkey.org.
    --Be sure to put this on the subject line: current author [your pen name] with iffy chapter
    --Copy and paste your chapter inside the message body. Don't send it as an attachment as we might not have the proper software to read it with.


    AND

  • Post on this thread. Simply say something along these lines:
    Hi, I've emailed a chapter to ficmods@portkey.org. My author name's ___.

  • IF you haven't gotten a response after 2 weeks, then assume that the fic team's busy with RL or other mod-ing tasks. You could then hit the Report button on your post here to alert other PK mods about your concern. Say something like Follow up to the fic mods, please. The mods who'd see your report can either handle the issue themselves or follow it up with their teammates.
