The text reads: I thought a lot on how to proceed and I decided it would be most fair if I left the choice to each contributor individually.

Initially I thought that <20€/pp would be too little to distribute. However I know how dire things are right now and even if it isn't a lot, if the money could help out, I'd be more than happy to. I know that regardless of whether it will be donated or paid out towards the artists it'll go back to the community.

📣 Schedule Update I have extended the application time by moving the start date forward (end date remains unchanged), so you can get your application in early if you choose to. :) More data from the interest check below.

Timeline
Application Period Extended

previously: 01.05.2025 - 01.06.2025
now: 21.03.2025 - 01.06.2025

The application period has had its start date moved! The end date remains **unchanged**.

Take your Time
This means you will have two months instead of one month to fill out your application. I will not be looking at applications until after the 01.06., so please take as much time to fill them out as you need!

Why?

I got everything done ahead of schedule, so I figured you guys might appreciate the extra time. :)

I have amended the schedule on the website to reflect the change above.

Interest Check 23.01.2025 - 14.03.2025
The interest check helps me determine how many people are interested in both applying to and supporting the project.
Guidelines and scope may be adjusted based on the results.

Applications 01.05.2025 - 01.06.2025
The anthology will be open for applications during this time. A total of 15 contributors will be chosen. Please make sure to read the submission guidelines carefully.

Submissions 01.08.2025-20.11.2025
The given timeframe for contributors to work on their pieces. Artists are required to submit progress for two check-ins.

Third page of the booklet. The page is titled "FAQ". The text reads:

Q: Can I apply even though I am not trans?
Yes, you don’t need to disclose your identity in your application.

Q: Can I include characters that aren’t trans in my piece?
Yes, though the main focus of your piece should be your transgender oc. It doesn’t matter if said character is out, pre-transition, or gender non conforming. Cis characters may still appear as background or supporting characters.

Q: What type of submissions are accepted?
Any visual art, be it illustrations, comics, 3d, traditional art, mixed media or something else.

Q: Do the characters have to be human?
No, any anthropomorphic characters will be considered.

Q: Will there be pins / prints / merch?
Not at this time, sorry.

I don’t have the capacity for organizing and coordinating more contributors/formats that what I have already planned for at the moment.

Questions?
