CRUSH HUNDO EDITION SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Thank you for taking an interest in our HUNDO’s. This has become quite the project and as such we want to make sure that everyone understands the expectations for submitting to the publication.
The purpose of the HUNDO’s is to help writers hone their craft. In an ideal world, it’s a 100-word micro-story. We, however, do not limit you to these 100 words. We want you to be creative and express yourself however you wish. These HUNDO’s are meant to be fun and that’s how we want to keep them. Each of the words are picked on Tuesday night for the next seven days. They will be posted at 9pm central time each evening on the Crush Twitter account @crushpub, please follow this. The Crush Publication Feature writer along with the Crush editors (Skylar & Sunny) choose the words for the week.
Each HUNDO needs to incorporate the word of the day. This means using that word in your story, or writing about that word, in some fashion. We want everyone to use that same theme each day. If you miss a day and want to submit a ‘catch up HUNDO’ that is allowed. We will gladly publish your post late. There is no time limit. Just note if you submit more than one post a day because of this, your catch-up post will be posted after other daily HUNDOs to ensure we don’t hit our metered publishing count early.
If you have further questions about HUNDOs please reach out to Skylar or Sunny, and they will be glad to help.
Requirements:
1) Please ‘follow’ this publication. The purpose of this is to help ensure our authors all benefit from the multiplier that Medium provides when we follow the publication that the story is read from. We want to SUPPORT each other as much as we can. This is a community project to help all of us and this is an easy thing to do for one another.
2) Please follow @crushpub (at a minimum) on Twitter. Editors: @quinnskylar23 & @sunnyamorgan1 as well. This is so we can communicate if there are issues.
3) Submit one HUNDO post per word. There is a limit of how many stories can be published in one day by editors, that limit is 50. And there are times we are publishing over 50 HUNDO posts a day. This will allow everyone the opportunity to submit. You’re welcome to do more than one HUNDO inside the same post.
