Hammel’s It's Summer! Secret Fic Exchange
How it Works
- Everyone who participates will write one fic for another participant, and in return receive a fic they request from another participant. (Limit one request per person)
-At the bottom of this post, you’ll see a handy dandy form. PM that form to me (don’t post here or you’ll ruin the surprise!) and you’ll be entered in the drawing.
-After the drawing you’ll receive another member’s request, and will have until the deadline (see calendar below) to write the fic! Then we’ll post all the fics to share and enjoy!
Guidelines
1. Fics should be longer than 300 words (unless otherwise requested for a shorter length). Of course, the fics can be longer. If you've got the time and the muse if a-flowin' go for it!
2. Since we will be posting our fics on-site, please keep them appropriate for all ages. If you have questions about what is appropriate do not hesitate to PM me.
3. To keep things fair, everyone who wants to receive a fic must also write one. Please consider this carefully, because it won’t be fair if you request a fic but then don’t write one.
4. Characters: As you’ll see below, you can request the characters to be used in the fic; they can be your characters or someone else’s. Additionally, you must use all of the characters that are requested, but feel free to add others if you'd like (of course unless otherwise stated in the request).
5. Stories are not cannon.
Calendar
Signups: Now through August 8th at 11pm EST.
Assignments: Will be drawn the night of August 8th and PM’d to all participants.
Check-in: I’ll be in touch with everyone on August 22nd to check in and see how things are going. This is not the deadline, but it helps to make check that people haven’t dropped out because things have come up, ect.
Reveal: Starting August 29th at midnight EST and goes until September 5th at 11:59 pm EST. This is so folks have a whole week of leeway to deal with school, work, holidays, etc.
SIGN-UP FORM
Note: DO NOT post your form to this thread; that ruins the surprise! Instead, PM your form to me (Stefan Spencer) from an account you check relatively frequently, and I will PM you back to let you know I’ve received it.
[b]NAME:[/b] (Yours so I can keep track of everyone.)
[b]YOUR ACCOUNT:[/b] (An account you use frequently, so I’ll know how best to contact you. Also PLEASE send this form from that account to help me out.)
[b]CHARACTER(S) REQUESTED:[/b] (This is where you request which characters you'd like your fic to be about. Also if you want them to be the only characters. If you want to give your writer free pick on who to include, feel free to do that too.)
[b]FIC DETAILS:[/b] (This is where you suggest situations, settings, ect. Be as picky or as general a you want. If you want a specific pairing(s), a shipping fic, lay it out here. And if you just want drabble, a very short fic, say so here too. If you want to give your writer free reign, just say so.)
[b]WRITER REQUESTS[/b]: (If you as a writer have certain limitations which you would prefer, for example you don't want to write violence, , certain types of relationships, abuse, dying, ect, put that here. I will do my best to cater to everyone’s needs, thought it may not be 100% possible. Just remember to do your best, this is not a contest!)Again, PM me this simple form, and you’re automatically entered! I will then be in touch August 8th-9th to let you know your assignment. If you have any questions, you can PM them to me or post them below.
Have fun! Spread the love!
