520 Day Reverse Exchange: 2021 round coming soon!

[trobadora]

The Annual Interdimensional Haixing-Dixing 520 Day Reverse Exchange is coming back for 2021!

520 sounds like "I love you" in Mandarin, so May 20th is a bit like Valentine's Day, and we're celebrating. As the name suggests, this is a reverse exchange: instead of making your request and that request being assigned to a writer/artist/fanwork creator, here:

1. You sign up with the kinds of things you enjoy creating.
2. You choose three writers/artists/fanwork creators based on anonymised ads.
3. You make a request of each of them based on what they enjoy creating.
4. You are assigned one request to create for, based on your offer.
5. You receive a gift from one of the creators you chose.

(An updated rules/info post will go up before sign-ups open, but here is last year's for reference.)

This year's schedule:

• Sign-ups part 1 - offers: Saturday 20 March - Friday 26 March
• Sign-ups part 2 - requests: Saturday 27 March - Friday 02 April
• Matching: Saturday 03 April - Tuesday 06 April
• Assignments out: Wednesday 07 April at the latest
• Deadline: Thursday 13 May
• Work reveals: Thursday 20 May (there is no anon period)

Hope to see you there, and please spread the word!
