FAQ
Last updated 10/31/24
Q: What is this project?
A: This is essentially a fanmade anthology or book of original work for AMC’s Interview With The Vampire. For this project, a fanbook is a non-official publication of fics and art surrounding a certain fandom, ship, and/or theme. Submissions are compiled into either a PDF or a physical book.Q: Will there be NSFW content?
A: No, we will not be allowing explicit NSFW content in the book at this time despite the Mature rating. Blood, gore and suggestive/sexual themes are welcome.Q: Where will you ship from?
A: We ship from the United States.Q: Will international shipping be available?
A: Yes, international orders will be accepted through our online store. We’re unable to circumvent the laws surrounding imports. Contributors will be reimbursed for any taxes upon arrival if we are able to afford to send physical bundles.Q: Is there a minimum age requirement for contributors?
A: All contributors must be 18 or older at time of joining. This is non-negotiable.Q: How are contributors chosen?
A: Contributors are chosen based on their pitch and portfolio. The reason for this is that we’d like to have a variety of ideas and pieces in the zine, to avoid pieces from looking too much alike. We aim to judge all applicants equally; popularity or follower count won’t affect your chances.Q: None of my existing pieces (art/merch/writing) have IWTV characters in them, will that hurt my chances to get into the zine?
A: We recommend having them in your portfolio because we want to be able to see how you’d stylize them. In other words, it might affect your application, however we try to judge all applicants fairly based on their pitch and portfolio.An extended version of our FAQ is located on our INFO DOC.
