Winter Exchange

Maybe a bit late of a request, but is there plans for an exchange this year?

I got slammed in March/April and there wasn't much interest last year. The Star Wars Rare Pairs exchange just happened over on AO3 and Yuletide Treasures is going on right now. I (personally) don't have any plans for an exchange but I'm not opposed to promoting one.

Just thought I’d ask. Personally I’d be terrible at organizing it.

Oops, forgot to login, ugh.

Yeah! I'm glad someone did.

April came and went and I kicked myself for not saying anything but then... I think we only had three participants last year and one had to drop out due to personal issues and ... it just kind of fizzled. Every January I compile a list of prompts and past-due fics with the intention of playing catch up but life's been hectic for me. :(

I'd recommend setting an alert for Yuletide and the SW Rare Pairs exchange. They've both had a pretty good showing for SW Legends fans. :)

If organization is our problem, maybe we could change the format? Another comm I belong to does a challenge where everyone posts prompts/vague fic ideas, then everyone chooses a prompt (on their own, no need to claim them) and posting starts on a designated day.

You are welcome to give it a shot! I don't have any time right now and Livejournal hasn't been the hottest place to advertise. :(

There might be enough of us hanging around for this kind of thing :)

How long did we usually have to write our pieces, again? Maybe we can start in the new year...

[virusq]

I tried to give 3-4 weeks.

I like the idea of posting proompts for people to claim. Maybe at least three per writer?
