Please check the category decriptions for AU and AR categories - I'm already declining fics because they've been entered in the wrong place..

Round 16 of SDFA is a normal round but please, read the rules - it's important you do, because if you don't and you nominate, I'll know, and your submission will be deleted.

ALL fiction sent via the application for nomination form will now be screened to ensure that it fits the following criteria before being accepted into the nominations process.

Fiction must be relatively free of grammatical, spelling and punctuation errors, and must be generally well written and formatted. In order to achieve this, we suggest that you thoroughly check your fiction before submitting it for nomination, OR have your fiction proofed/beta read by someone who is not you.
Fiction must fit into the category in which it is being nominated. For example if your fic is an AU based on Xander being an astronaut say, and you nominate it as a crossover for Star Trek, unless members of the cast of Star Trek are presented (and in a believable manner) your fic will not be accepted into the crossover category. Naming a fiction a crossover simply because Xander becomes an astronaut/is an astronaut is not enough for it to be an actual crossover.
