yuletide_coal | The rest of the exchange year...

No U

Chocolate Box is a stupid exchange for stupid people.

I've written a treat and would like to write two more. Stuff in the collection looks good!

In case anyone thought the new hetswap mod was going to be better than Aeiouna.

I don't have a gift for Chocolate Box yet...at this point do you think I'll be defaulted on?

Oh and no one wrote me a treat :(

Okay, who nominated "Worldbuilding: Polyamory conventions" under Steven Universe?

T-2 days. Anybody still writing treats/pinch hits?

My assignment's been done and up for a while, and I had started a couple of treats, but both requesters apparently defaulted, as did my assigned recipient. :( Nothing against people who default, but seeing that sapped my enthusiasm for treating them, especially since one already has multiple gifts.

I have a couple of treats I'd like to write but haven't had time to do it until now. I may try to get them in under the wire, especially since they're both on the 'didn't default but has one or no gift' list.

Is dunzo in it current form.

Thoughts? Reactions? Petty griping?

Great stories, crap stories, other types of drama?

There's mild wank in the comm. about The Exorcist over the Peter Morrow/Peter Osbourne thing in a 200-word story.

I have three potential matches! The first two are totally right up my alley and I'd love matching with them! The other one is... different. I could write something they'd probably like, I'm sure, but their letter is rubbing me wrong. They upfront demand that anything that is given to them be vanilla femmedom, which makes me side-eye a bit. Although it doesn't apply to what I'd match on, they've also requested underage ships and DNWed underage. Plus it's super obvious that they tacked on fandom Z to make the minimum and that they really want fandom X or fandom Y, both of which are big canons that I have exactly 0% interest in.

No letter, no pairings mentioned, no likes...ARGH!!!!

Podficcer gets sanctimonious in space_swap, as podficcers do.

Reading words that someone else wrote is not the same as creating a brand-new piece of fiction or art.

Anyone doing Smutswap? What do you want to receive/write? What letters/requests look good?

Don't know why I'm so surprised to see FFA eat their own like that.

Why is this place so dead? Only seven months until nominations!

Expired, I think?

Because I can't use the search function D:

Would it be ok to mention it here, or is the risk too great that my recip would be hanging out here too?

A new poly ships exchange has stepped up to hopefully be as not-terribly-modded as Holly Poly. Nominations are open now!

/not the mod, just excited about poly ships

Signups open tomorrow! Anyone in?

Last year was astonishingly free of wank.

I just shook my hetswap gift and got a fandom I really wanted! YAY!

“This exchange is for autistic people and autistic characters, by autistic people.”

“Keep in mind while nominating, requesting, and offering characters that those characters must be autistic in the fic. Self-diagnosis is acceptable. Medical diagnosis is acceptable.”

“Nominate characters who are canonically autistic, such as Kevin Blake from Eureka or Lou Arrendale from The Speed of Dark, or who you think of (or want to read fic about) as autistic, such as Belle and Beast in Disney’s Beauty and the Beast (1991).”

Coalies, are you going to be signing up?

Yeah
