Feedback post & poll

[linndechir.livejournal.com]

That's it for this round of the exchange. Everything has been posted, you can find the masterlist here. I hope everyone enjoyed participating and liked the gift they received. If you haven't commented on your gift yet, please do so soon. It's rude not to thank the author or artist who made something just for you.

With the exception of one unexpected drop-out this round went exceptionally well and I'm very happy about that. My thanks to arcco and janie_tangerine for pinch-hitting - and of course thanks to everyone else who participated or commented. Btw, don't forget that if you repost your fic on AO3, you can add it to the got_exchange collection. And if you catch up on any fic and art you've missed so far, be sure to leave a comment to let the author/artist know if you liked their work.

A few rounds ago I stopped doing polls about when the next exchange should take place because the answer was always "as soon as possible", but considering how slow sign-ups were this time, I'm wondering if everyone is maybe a bit burnt out and wants a break. Or maybe everyone who skipped round nine can't wait for round ten now, I don't know.

[Poll #1963997]

If you have any feedback for this round or suggestions for future rounds, please let me know. Again, thanks everyone for making this exchange possible. :)

Oh, and one last thing: the mods of smutty_westeros asked me to let you know that sign-ups for the second round of their ASOIAF/GOT smut exchange are currently open.

Thanks again for a very smooth exchange! Despite my fic being late (as always) I had a lot of fun writing it and have been delighted by the feedback. Although fewer people took part this time I feel like there is more consistent commenting this time round? Not sure if that's an accurate impression but it's definitely felt like lots of people are reading a good proportion of the fics.

This was my first time participating, and it was a great experience! I had a wonderful time both giving and receiving fic, and I loved seeing everyone's excellent work and different perspectives. Thank you, mods, and thank you, community!

So, yeah, I'm super excited, and would love it if Round 10 started soon :)

Although I had to drop out, I still enjoyed the exchange and loved my fic. Thank you for being understanding when my writers' block did me in & for running another wonderful & well-organized exchange. Hopefully I'll be able to participate again in future.
