hi! how many fics have been submitted/how many days of posting will there be?
Hi!
We have over 30 fics at the moment, but we are expecting some more with extensions. Regardless, the posting will be for 5 days, with potentially more fics posted on the last day!

hi! will authors be notified about what specific day their fic will be revealed? thank you for your hard work on this fest!
Hi, sorry we only just got around to answering this!
We didn't plan to inform the authors which day their fic will be revealed, as the order may change depending on fics coming in from extensions!
We ordered it prioritising the ship and the flower, as we are aiming for as much variety as possible on each day!

hi :) Will you be letting us know when our fic will be posted? And what time does posting start? Thanks!
Hi! Sorry, we didn't see this before posting!
We are aiming for 9 pm (CEST) each day. We didn't plan to announce which day their fics would be posted, as some fics had extensions and things might change depending on the variety of ships and flowers on a given day!

hello! when submitting our fic, is there a particular way or format we should mention bloomfest in the notes?
Hi!
No, there is no requirement for any format, just whatever feels right for you!

hello, are reveals still set for the 11th?
Hi, that's right! Mod might have made a mistake in some extension emails, but reveals are still the 11th!

Hello, I sent an email but haven’t heard anything back. I had been asking about an extension. I was just wanted to double check that it had been received. My ao3 is mundanite (included in the email sent).
Hi!
So sorry we missed your email, we will get back to you asap. Mods have been extremely busy with life things so sorry about that <3

hihi umm this is my first fest, and this might be a bit of a dumb question, but what do we do if we've finished the fic before the submission deadline?? do we post it, or do we hold onto it until then?? because the whole thing with the author reveals has confused me a little bit
Hi, you can submit your fic whenever you want!
When it comes into our collection, it stays unrevealed. The reveals are basically us accepting the work into the collection and then posting it on our page.
If you want to discus it more, we are happy to talk in our twitter dms or via email!

Question! When it comes to chaptered fics do all the chapters have to be submitted by the deadline or can it be the first chapter at the deadline and we can still update after the reveals?
Hi!
We would prefer if all works were fully completed when submitted, but if you absolutely can't, please reach out to us via twt dm's or email and discuss it with us privately!
We were thinking of potentially opening up off-season submissions, so this could potentially work for unfinished, chaptered fics too

Hi! Is there a deadline for the sign up?
Hi!
We have no strict deadline due to the low-pressure nature of the fest, we would just ask that people claim with enough time to finish their work.
We are happy for anyone to dm us if they will struggle to reach the deadline!
