Some upcoming exchanges:
[livejournal.com profile] not_primetime: An exchange for fandoms that are too big for Yuletide but too small to run their own exchanges. Currently doing signups (closes April 30th).
[livejournal.com profile] ficmountain: Yuletide in June, basically. This is the first year for this exchange. Currently doing signups (closes April 30th).
[livejournal.com profile] jukebox_fest: An exchange for stories about songs. Currently doing nominations (closes tonight at midnight EST).
MM-Rares: An exchange for rare slash pairings. This is the first year for this exchange. Currently doing nominations (closes May 2nd).

Is anyone participating in any of these? I'm considering Night on Fic Mountain and M/M Rares, but I haven't made up my mind yet. Also, whoa, someone who is not me nominated Ben January for Fic Mountain! This is very exciting.

I'm trying to see if I can line up enough offers for Fic Mountain and Not Prime Time -- both have the Musketeers! And I am looking for ALL THE REASONS to write more things about them. Fic Mountain also has Zorro and the Scarlet Pimpernel, and a few other tiny things that need more love.

Sorry to jump in, but may I please correct you? Nominations for Jukebox close at midnight tonight - sign-ups will go on for a week after that. If I've posted this information incorrectly somewhere, I'd really appreciate you letting me know so I can correct it there.

Oops, no! I'm sure it was my fault– I was skimming through all the exchanges quickly, and clearly didn't read closely enough. I've fixed it in my post now. Apologies!

Hmm, yeah, looking at the tag set, a few of my perennial small fandoms didn't make it into Fic Mountain. On the other hand, I am sure I could line up enough offers/requests if I want to!

And yes, more Musketeers is an excellent reason to sign up!

someone who is not me nominated Ben January for Fic Mountain!

That was me! I was wondering how the whole nomination thing worked from the other side and if they could be deleted. They can't, so it's a good thing I picked something I wanted to request anyway.

Ha, cool! I think usually nominations can be deleted if you do it before they've been approved by a mod, but not afterwards.

I'm going to attempt Jukebox! I hope it will help ease me into original fic again...

Whoa, what? Those AO3 form things are confusing, is that how most exchanges work anymore? I DON'T UNDERSTAND THESE NEW-FANGLED GADGETS.

It appears some of them have my current tiny fandom but not my tiny ship. Damn. :[ I'm not a fan of exchanges but being in a small fandom is making me reconsider.

I'm still chewing over Not Prime Time. TMNT and Saiyuki in the same exchange, what is this madness?

It's not too bad once you've done them once or twice. They apparently make matching MUCH easier so I'll grin and bear it.

I wish I were not, but damnation by a surfeit of exchanges is a condition I apparently don't have the willpower to avoid ;__; At least I'm saved from M/M Rares. I seem to ship less slash every year-- by this point I can't think of enough eligible ships to have separate offer/request sets. (Do you plan to offer and request the same fandoms for each exchange?)

I know some people who did it last year and had a lot of fun! And I ended up writing for a song-fandom for Yuletide, and I also really enjoyed doing so.

Ha, yeah, AO3 makes it so simple (for the mods) that I think pretty much every challenge has moved there. It's simple once you've done it a few times, but it is really non intuitive.

Exchanges can be great for small fandoms!

Ooo, I didn't see Saiyuki was in NPT. That is very tempting!

Ha, yeah, I think I'm having the same problem with too many exchanges. But deadlines are a great motivator!

I'm definitely looking to offer/request Ben January in any thing I sign up for, but my other choices will probably shift around.

Huh. I guess I'll have to figure them out at some point. (Yeah, really not intuitive.)
