  1. Suggest ways that the podficcer(s) might be involved in the writing process that would work well for you.

  2. Suggest ways that the writer(s) might be involved in the podficcing process that would work well for you.

  3. If one or more group members become unhappy or uncomfortable with how the collaboration is going, what are your preferences for how it would be handled? (For example, a preference that your partner(s) tell you right away if something bothers them, a preference that they give you some time after telling you something heavy for you to process and respond, etc. Please note that for any conflict that cannot be resolved within a single conversation, we STRONGLY ENCOURAGE coming to the mods for support and not allowing things to escalate! Participants should also all feel welcome and encouraged to come straight to the mods without having talked to their partner first if that feels safer/better!)

  4. What is the maximum project length that works for you? Is there a period of time where your partner will not be able to contact you for many days? Is there anything else along these lines that you want to let your partner know about in advance?

Schedule/Timeline
Podficcer sign-up date/s: now to 01 October
Writing deadline: 25 January
Podfic deadline: 01 March

Podficcer Requirements
Minimum/maximum: all of the fic if <10k, over that is flexible.
For reference, the minimum for fic is 3k (lower tier) or 8k (higher tier).

Additional Info
This is a big bang for small(er) Korean webnovel and webcomic fandoms. Podfic isn't mentioned in the rules, but I discussed adding it with the mods in the server. You can find the discussion in this thread. In general, they are flexible and open to suggestions.
There are currently more artists than writers signed up/who expressed interest, so it's likely that several artists will be matched with the same writer.

We're at the halfway point of icebreaker week!

If you're finding that you're not able to answer the whole set of questions within a day but think they'd be valuable to go through, please feel free to spread the five days of icebreaker questions out across more than 5 days to fit your schedule.

This next set of questions is geared towards helping partners get more familiar with each other's work and creative process.

  1. Why do you create fanworks? What does it mean to you?

  2. Share a piece of a fanwork you're particularly proud of (a page or so of a written work, a few minutes of an audio work) and explain why you're proud of it.

  3. Read/listen to your partner's shared fanwork, and give feedback about what works for you about it.

Day 2's icebreaker questions are related to group work!

  1. What strengths will you bring to the group?

  2. What things do you struggle with when it comes to group work? (And, if you want, how can your partner help you with these things?)

  3. What are you hoping for from this collaboration experience? What would your dream version of Pod-Together collaboration look like?

  4. What's one thing your partner(s) could say or do that would feel really good to you? (For example, compliment your fanwork, offer to help with organization/beta/cheerleading, reach out to you to say hi every few days, etc.)

Hello lovely participants,

The start of a partnership is always so exciting as you and your partner(s) figure out how you'd like to work together! Icebreaker week is designed to support that process, with a combination of fun and helpful getting-to-know-you questions. They've started some incredibly useful and productive conversations in the past, and we hope they'll do the same for you now!

These exercises are optional, but we hope they'll help both those groups that were assigned and the ones that formed on their own. We encourage group members to stay in contact with each other this week, answering as many questions as they are comfortable with.

Today's questions are geared towards helping group members learn a bit more about each other, personally and fannishly.

  1. Name as many books, movies, TV shows, animes, comics, celebrities, etc. that you can think of that you have felt or feel fannish about.

  2. List 3–5 things you enjoy in stories (e.g. a kind of trope, story line, etc.). List 3–5 things that you do not enjoy in stories.

  3. What communication methods and interaction level did you put in your sign-up, and why did you choose them? (If you did group sign-ups, you may want to look at those questions on our matchmaker sign-up form and then answer them for your partner). It could also help to describe the communication level you don't want——what sort of communication patterns would feel uncomfortably high/uncomfortably low for you, and why?

  4. What are 3 facts about yourself (fannish or otherwise) that you haven’t already mentioned?
