FAQ
🌸 What’s this project about?
This is a SFW, PDF-only, for-profit holiday zine that will be centered around the ship Kirishima Eijirou and Bakugou Katsuki from Boku no Hero Academia.
🌸 How many contributors will there be?
The zine will have 26 artists, 10 writers, and 3 merch artists.
Contributors from the first volume will be joining us again; for apps, we're looking to add 10 artists, 4 writers, and 3 merch artists to the team!
🌸 What are the application requirements for contributors?
Artists are asked to submit three samples and/or a link to their portfolio. Writers are asked to submit three samples, and each sample should be between 1.5k and 2k words.
The zine will be strictly fluff themed, so please keep that in mind when selecting your samples! NSFW samples aren’t allowed.
Non-BNHA samples are allowed, but we suggest that you include at least one sample that centers around KiriBaku so that that mods will have a better idea of how you draw/write them.
🌸 Can minors apply?
Yes, but those who are under 16 will not be receiving monetary compensation - please be aware of this if you’re under 16 and plan on applying!
