You are expected to find your own collaborative partners. A collaboration could be, for example, be a piece of writing that two participants create together (such a piece would still have 2500 word maximum), or a piece of writing and an illustration for it. If you are doing a collaboration, please specify in your check ins that this is a collaborative work, so the mods will know.Comics are allowed, if they follow the art rules above.We accept both gen work and ships.
