Podfic Submission Checklist

[klb]

Hi everyone!

We've been getting some questions about how to submit podfics, so here's a quick checklist of steps to follow:

If you are using our hosting:

• Email us your mp3 file and any other file you'd like us to host, including m4b and/or cover art


• Add a streaming option to your AO3 entry. You can get code for embedded streaming here or here.


• Add a direct download option to your AO3 entry. Remember, all downloads must be available directly from AO3 (no clicking through to a different site).


• Send us an email to let us know that your podfic has been added to your entry. We'll double-check it and email you back to tell you whether everything looks good from our end. If not, we'll talk you through fixing any final issues we notice.

If you are using your own hosting:

• Add a streaming option to your AO3 entry. You can get code for embedded streaming here or here.


• Add a direct download option to your AO3 entry. Remember, all downloads must be available directly from AO3 (no clicking through to a different site).


• Send us an email to let us know that your podfic has been added to your entry. We'll double-check it and email you back to tell you whether everything looks good from our end. If not, we'll talk you through fixing any final issues we notice.

As a reminder, the early submission deadline is August 9th, and all podfics are due August 13th. If you are unable to submit by August 13th, please contact us to get an extension, and let us know the length of extension (up to 7 days) that you need. Extension requests must be made on or before August 13th.

I believe that's everything, but if you think of any remaining questions, feel free to ask them in the comments here.
