New pack of Nifflers needed

[heiditandy]

Thanks to all of our Nifflers for making the FictionAlley Nifflers
Recommendations Pack (http://www.fictionalley.org/fictionalleypark/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=106) 
a great success in 2002! We've seen a wonderful range of
fiction pass through those boards, and hopefully have helped some
authors gain some new readers and more exposure for their excellent
stories. 

And with the New Year, it's time for some new Nifflers! FictionAlley
needs a new pack of Nifflers (those little creatures from GoF who find
glittery things) to pick a few fics each month - things that might have
been overlooked when they were first uploaded, or fics that you feel
really deserve a wider audience - and recommend them to the fandom. 
 
All you have to do, if you want to be a Niffler, is send an email (by
December 24) to  FANifflers at ... with the
following information:
1. vBulletin User Name: (you must be a registered user of FA, although
you can register today as long as you're over 13)
2. Email address:
3. Review of a multichaptered story that is archived on FA (where the
first chapter was uploaded no later than October 31, 2002):
4. Review of a one-shot story that archived publicly: (where the first
chapter was uploaded no later than October 31, 2002).


Notes (for both the application and the Niffler Program): 

A. Each review must be between 100 and 300 words and must contain proper
grammar and spelling. 

B. You cannot review a fic that you beta-read or wrote.

C. Prior Nifflers cannot reapply at this time.

How will FA pick Nifflers?
We're looking for up to 10 people who point out the good things in a
story - these are recommendations after all - but don't shy away from
offering constructive criticism if necessary. However, we're not looking
for counter-recommendations. 

Good grammar and correct spelling (especially for character names) -
both are necessary!

What will the Nifflers actually do?
Each month, each Niffler will submit at least four recommendations (all
at once or one a week). The recommendations will be fics that the
Niffler thinks are good reads. 
 
Each recommendation will be between 100 and 300 words, and not violate
the terms of use. Nifflers can recommend any Harry Potter fanfic (except
NC-17 ones), whether it's on FictionAlley or on another site - no matter
how old it is, as long as that fic hasn't been recommended by another
Niffler in the past six months.
