Sastiel Big Bang

This is a challenge focused on the relationship between any combination of Sam, Castiel, Jared and Misha (in any form) from the series, Supernatural.

The Sastiel Big Bang is back!

For 2017 the Sastiel Big Bang will again be a ‘collaboration’ bang — meaning that instead of traditional formats where an author spends a few months working on an idea and then posts a small summary to entice an artist to work on the project — both author and artist will work simultaneously, on an idea and the project as a whole. This will provide more time for both parties to work on their portion of the story, and hopefully mean a greater investment in the idea for artists involved.

Sign up HERE to be a part of the fun! On November 15th, we will release the current list of participants (this info will be anonymous) and you will get to choose your collaboration partner!

Want more info on how collaboration will work? CLICK HERE!

Also take a look at our SCHEDULE and RULES.

Any other questions? Feel free to send us an ASK!

(ALSO: Remember to follow us! Our tumblr address is the same, but we’ve switched blogs to make things easier for the mods to keep up!)

[sastielbbhasmoved]

For everyone wondering: we have switched blogs (it’s the same address, but the new blog is connected to our mods main blog so she can easily keep up with things), so make sure to refollow!

Apologies for the delay in this year’s Sastiel Big Bang, but now things have slowed down, the bigger bangs (Dean/Cas and Team Free Will) are over, and you can focus on the sweetest ship Supernatural has to offer. ;)

Drafts due!

Who’s the worst mod at keeping track of deadlines? *waves* This girl.

Today was the final day to email your finished or mostly finished drafts to [email protected] -- thankfully most of you have been following along over at the livejournal (where the other amazing mod is always on top of things). If you haven’t, and you’re seeing this at the eleventh hour, take a deep breath and DON’T PANIC. Big Bangs are for fun, so as long as you get your draft emailed by the end of the weekend, we will include. (Even after, as long as you update us.)

*runs off to finish art for my claims*

[sastielbbhasmoved]

Schedule Update:

So tumblr decided to erase the theme and everything that had been changed for this year, so the schedule on it is an outdated version that we later decided to change, and has the rough draft due date as today. This is wrong and you still have another month! Real schedule is below.

First writer/artist check in - Aug 15

Second writer/artist check in - Oct 22

Final check in/final draft due - Nov 26

Posting begins - Dec 5

Apologies for the confusion!

[sastielbbhasmoved]

Sastiel BB Check-In!

Sorry for the delay in this -- I’ve been so busy worrying about my story for DCBB that I’ve been a bit absent. I’m sure you all know how it is!

Anywho, please take a quick moment to fill out our CHECK IN FORM so that we know how you are doing story and art wise. If anything has come up and you feel you won’t be able to continue, give us a heads up so we can talk it over with your collaboration partner.

All in all... good luck, keep writing, and remember that this whole process is for fun. So don’t stress!

[sastielbbhasmoved]

Are beta sign ups still happening?

Huzzah! Thank you, nonny, I knew I was forgetting something.Beta sign-ups (for betas AND people looking for betas) are happening HERE!

[sastielbbhasmoved]

IT’S OFFICIAL!

Everyone is paired up! Yay! Thanks to the 21 artists and 28 authors that are participating in this year’s Sastiel Big Bang. Good luck on your collaborations!

(And remember: if you still want to participate, sign ups are open until July 10th!)

[sastielbbhasmoved]

To the anon looking for a co-writing partner -- please send me a message off anon if you are still looking for someone.

[sastielbbhasmoved]

I have a question - I would like to sign up, but I have trouble completing fics especially ones set to a time limit, which would mean I would probably only be able to join in if I had another author collaborating with me, but the sign ups say 'who do you plan on collaborating with' and I'm not sure how I can find someone who would want to? I'm sorry, I'm a little confused, I've never done a big/mini bang before ^^;

Well the good news is, we have quite a few authors participating and following us, and we might have someone willing to collaborate on a story with you. We might even have an artist that also writes, that might be interested!

So I’m going to post this and we’ll see if we have any takers.Anyone willing to help produce another sastiel fic?

Update:

We’ve got 25 SUCCESSFUL PAIRINGS! I’ve also got 3 more that are in the works pending replies. That means we only have TWO writers currently looking for a collaboration partner! Want to help one of them?  Writer 1

Ratings: Gen, Teen, Mature

Relationships: M/M, None (Gen), Asexual and/or Aromantic

Ideas: SAM MAKES YOUTUBE MAKEUP TUTORIALS. SASTIEL IN MAKEUP.

Likes: AUs, tooth-rotting fluff, cuddling, light dashes of angst, bed sharing, music and art… Hurt Sam and Cas coming to his rescue.

Dislikes: No rape/non-con/vaguely unclear consent. No Lucifer. No other ships, really (my eggs get a little scrambled trying to write more than one, even in the background). No more than mild violence, and definitely no torture. Basically nothing super duper dark.

Other Comments: I have a lot of ideas I’ve been mulling over, and I’d love to hear yours! I’m super excited to see how this year goes. Sometimes I get overexcited and shoot off at the mouth, so just spritz me with cold water if I start trying to commandeer the whole thing. I’m really looking forward to this!!

theboykingsbrokencrown replied to your post:CLAIMS UPDATE

I thought claims were going both ways? Not just artists claiming authors?

First round it did, yes. I was going to do that for the second round as well, however -- there’s no way of predicting if we will get new artists coming in, or if the artists signed up will go ahead with doing a second claim. So it was hard to say which artists the second round of claiming writers could choose from?

However, like I said, both sides still get a say in the process. We aren’t going to stick you with an artist without making sure that you are willing to work with them. And you’re more than welcome to say no. 

In fact: if we get multiple artists claiming one writer, we will send you the list of all available artists wanting to claim you, so you can choose. For example: if the first choice of 5 different artists is Writer 1, we will send Writer 1 the list of the 5 artists and let them choose.
