What is the exchange?
The AFTG Exchange is a gift exchange where you create a gift for someone and receive one in return. You can write a fic, create art, or put together a playlist - depending on what your giftee requests, and what you sign up to create.
What are the requirements?
First of all: you must complete your gift in time for the last day of the posting deadline, and share it with your giftee.
Fics: At least 1000 words and must be complete by the deadline (no unfinished chapter fics).
Art: At least one distinct work.
Playlists: At least 10 tracks, with an album cover.
How will I receive my assignment?
You will receive an email with the information from aftgexchange@gmail.com.
What if I need to drop out?
Please let us know ASAP. Life happens, we just ask that you communicate.
What if my creator drops out? Will I still receive a gift?
Yes! If you create a gift, you will receive a gift. If your creator drops out, we will find a pinch hitter for you - someone who will step in and take on creating your gift. If this happens, your gift may be delayed, and we will communicate that to you.
What if I change my URL or AO3?
Just let us know ASAP so we can update your creator.
