Fanfiction Guidelines « Thread Started on Apr 25, 2005, 9:35pm »
When writing a fanfiction, you must:
Put The RATING in the Title! Before starting to write, always put the: title, author, rating, genre, and summary at the top. G - for readers of all ages. No language, no sexual activity, no violence.
PG - for readers eight and above. Mild language, probably no sexual activity, perhaps some mild violence.
PG-13 - for readers thirteen and above. Some language, some sexual activity, violence (not very descriptive).
PG-15 - UK and Aussie writers might be more comfortable with this. It hovers between PG-13 and R.
R - sexual activity (sexual intercourse implied; nothing too graphic, however), strong language, violence.
NC-17 - graphic sex and/or violence, but you shouldn't care about this rating? Why? Because it's NOT ALLOWED!
EX:
Title: Curse of a Stage Author: Calamity Alpaca Rating: PG Genre: Humor, Horror, General Warnings: some horror scenes Summary: Hogwarts is setting up their very first play ever. Everyone is excited, until weird and creepy things start to happen. Actors disappear, and disasters happen at rehearsal. Can the sixteen-year-old trio figure out what’s going on before Hogwarts is no longer safe?

Blood, gore, cussing, and a happy pink rabbit named Sugarberry. The pink fuzzy rabbit hugs little children and makes the world the better place, then becomes an assassin and kills everyone yet helps out at the assissted living community.
