1. Nonfiction, fiction, poetry, picturebooks, etc. will all be included - if an author works in multiple genres, by drafting them you get all genres.
2. To be eligible, works must have been published in a bound, single-author (or co-authored, see #3/#4 below) edition. Works that have only appeared in a magazine, journal, or multiple-author compilation (as opposed to co-authored book) will not be included. For clarity, if author Abby Ceady wrote an article for Time magazine, that article would not be included. If that article was also published in the multiple-author compilation "Best of Time Magazine" it would still not be included. However, if it was published in "Articles and Essays: Best of Abby Ceady", then it WOULD be included.
3. Co-authors: To be considered a co-author, an author must be listed on the cover of a book, but the book itself must be a collaborative work, not a compilation of pieces from individual authors. A book where individual chapters are alternately credited to Abby Ceady and Jake Lemon is considered a multiple-author compilation and will not be included.
4. A book that is written by co-authors will be included in the works of BOTH authors so long as it is an occasional collaboration: two or fewer works shared among co-authors. If the same co-authors produce three or more books, their collaborations must be drafted separately from their individual works (e.g., you could draft Abby Ceady-Jake Lemon to get their "Man O' Pique" trilogy, even if Abby Ceady's individual work had already been drafted).
5. If the author's works appear in multiple translations, or in multiple editions, you would be allowed to select your preferred translation/edition, though you need not specify that at the time of drafting.
6. If an author has worked as both an author AND a translator/illustrator, only his/her authorial works will be awarded to you. If you specifically wish to have a copy of their translated/illustrated works you must draft the original author. Translators and illustrators may not be drafted on their own (but author-illustrators may).
7. Works of antiquity whose authorship is uncertain or contested will be considered to have been written by the traditional author. Final say on which works have been "traditionally" written by a particular author will be delegated to Capt. Factorial (and Wikipedia).
8. Works without a traditional author are not eligible for selection (e.g., you can't select "Anonymous", or "Whoever it was that wrote 'Arias To You' ")
9. If an author has alternately written under multiple names (pen names, etc.), all works by that author will be included so long as the multiple names are publicly accepted to be the same person. In this case, you should draft the best-known name and note the other names this author has used.
10. Only works that have been published as of the start date of the draft (TBD) will be included.
