Fan exchanges elsewhere

[Elleth]

Oh, nice find! There is something off with the link, so here's the fixed one: Mother's Day Exchange. They also have an LJ with nomination guidelines.

And Not Prime Time (for medium-sized fandoms) has opened nominations until April 15. This one is a little more complex in terms of eligibility guidelines - SSSS is in, unfortunately aRTD (108 fics) and CoH (...6 fics) are too small to qualify, but there's plenty of time to get in other fandoms that interest you, provided they qualify.

Elleth, what's the theme of the Not Primetime exchange?  I can see what they want, but not why.

[Elleth]

I'm... not totally sure, actually? I know that NPT started out as a second, off-season Yuletide-inspired event, and the requirements for that are number-based, too. One critique that often shows up for exchanges in general is that no one is interested in small fandoms and the megafandoms take all the spotlight, so the medium-sized requirement for NPT might just be to cater to those for a change...?

I'm a bit blind, but I didn't find the FAQs for these, meaning I couldn't to figure out if these exchanges were write- only or art accepted. Help please?

Not Prime Time and Mother's Day look to be fic-only, but Night on Fic Mountain has options for both fic and art in the signup form. Usually, if you can't find a FAQ for a specific exchange on their journal, check the respective profile page on AO3 - that has a FAQ section as well, and most mods seem to use it.

I see a whole bunch of SSSS pairings under the 'Unassociated' set. Whomever put them under "SSSS" should probably revise them for Stand Still Stay Silent, or drop a message to the Exchange's mod(s) if you can't change them.

[Elleth]

That usually just means the mod has approved but not sorted them, they seem to be in the right place now.

Multifandom Drabble is open for signups until Saturday! It's a low-stress exchange for those little exactly-100-words snippets (or double/triple or series/sequences, you can specify that) with plenty of Minnaverse and Minnaverse crossovers to write for! The mod changed up the rules somewhat from last time, so you can specify whatever you want in the comment boxes - things you don't want, and things, characters or pairings that you do, your imagination is the limit!

It's super fun, this is one of my favourite exchanges of the year, and it'd be great to see someone else around there!

Tag sets are open for the Trick or Treat Exchange!  Art or fiction, trick (spooky) or treat (fluffy).
https://archiveofourown.org/tag_sets/2574  Dreamwidth: https://trickortreatex.dreamwidth.org/
Even if you don't really want to sign up, getting in at the tagset stage is important - each person can only contribute so many, and more contributions means more to choose from for those who sign up!
This exchange is apparently single-character tags, not relationships, and the word limit and finish quality of the art is a lower bar as well, so maybe this is a good one to start with if you haven't done an exchange before, or in a while.
Tagsets are nominated from now through 8 September, then sign-ups are open for 11-18 Sept.  Assignments due 24 October, works revealed on Hallowe'en.

Thank you, I was just wondering about that one!

Something of a last-minute thing because signups close soon for the Holiday Fluff Exchange; signups close at 11:59om EST tonight. For... pretty much what it says on the tin, fluffy holiday fics/art of 1,000 words or a finished piece of art are required as minimum.

Go go go, don't leave me all alone - both aRTD and SSSS are in the tag set.
