You are welcome to apply to both, however, you will only be accepted for one role. All contributors, whether originally accepted as a SFW or NSFW contributor, will also have the chance to take part in the NSFW Hard Kink PDF add-on.Applications that do not follow the guidelines will not be considered until last.
