- I will send your assignment to you by e-mail, probably on September 3rd. Please make sure gotexchange[at]hotmail[dot]com doesn't end up in your spambox.
- Send your finished fic/art to gotexchange[at]hotmail[dot]com. The deadline is October 16th.
- If you don't want to sign up, but you'd like to participate in other ways, tell me. Mainly if you would be willing to beta read. And it would be great if you could promote this fic and art exchange in other communities. I will do so myself as well, but I'm not a member of every single ASOIAF community on LJ. ;) The more people participate, the more fic and art there will be. :)

Date: 2011-09-01 11:08 pm (UTC)Have you read (all) the books? No, I haven't read any of them.
What kind of gift can you make?
Fic and/or fanart? Fic, mainly. But banners, icons, fanmixes, etc, too.
Preferred characters and/or pairings: Any of the Starks, really, but particularly Robb, Jon, Arya, or Sansa. Daenerys, Rhaegar, Viserys.
Characters and/or pairings you will NOT draw/write about: Theon, Littlefinger, Joffrey, Sansa in romantic pairings. Cersei/Jaime.
What kind of genres can you write/what kind of pictures can you draw? I'll do pretty much anything except extreme fluff or extreme violence. No noncon. I like gen and slash best, usually, but I'm open to het and femslash too. Incest is fine. I tend to prefer writing character pieces to super plotty pieces.
Anything else I should know when I assign prompts to you? Can't think of anything.
What kind of gift do you want to receive?
Fic and/or fanart? Anything is totally fine and awesome.
Preferred characters and/or pairings: Robb/Jon. I'm pretty partial to anything Robb-related, though. Viserys/Daenerys. Arya/Gendry. Sansa&Arya (non-incesty sisterliness). Rhaegar.
Characters and/or pairings you do NOT want to see/read about: I'd prefer gen if it's about Sansa. Theon, Littlefinger, Joffrey, Cersei/Jaime.
What kind of fic/art do you generally want? I prefer slash or gen. Het is fine too.
Give at least three and up to five prompts/ideas:
- What if the Targaryens won the rebellion?
- Viserys/Daenerys, madness.
- Robb/Jon, AU, another time period. Maybe Victorian? Anything would be interesting, though.
- Sansa and Arya escape King's Landing together
- Robb/Jon, practice.
Your pet peeves and other things you DO NOT WANT in your story: (if you hate unhappy endings, or dislike AUs, or hate certain fandom theories - anything that your author/artist should know about)
Are you willing to beta read for other writers? No.
Are you willing to pinch hit? No, I don't think I'll have time. Sorry!

What kind of gift can you make? Fic.

Characters and/or pairings you will NOT draw/write about: Joffrey, Theon (Theon/Robb), Cersei, Sansa/Sandor
What kind of genres can you write/what kind of pictures can you draw? gen, smut, het and slash. Preferably angst (of the violent sort), fluff or character exploration.
Anything else I should know when I assign prompts to you?
What kind of gift do you want to receive? Fic

Characters and/or pairings you do NOT want to see/read about: Joffrey, Theon (Theon/Robb), Cersei, Sansa/Sandor
What kind of fic/art do you generally want? Gen or slash of the angsty, emotional sort. Fluff in brief moments of respite from the drama.
Give at least three and up to five prompts/ideas:
Jon/Robb - in another world, where Jon never left his brother's side.
Jaime & Tyrion or Ned & Benjen - brothers.
Ned, Robb, Jon - he loves them both but shows it differently.
Arya/Gendry - on the road together.

ADWD spoilers in the comment
Date: 2011-09-02 07:07 pm (UTC)Have you read (all) the books? yes! (actually, I haven't seen the show yet so I'd prefer book based prompts.)
What kind of gift can you make?
Fic and/or fanart? I can do fic and photoshop-based graphics, and I can/love to do fanmixes as well. No hand-drawings.
Preferred characters and/or pairings: Jaime/Brienne, Sandor/Sansa, Jon/Sam, Robb/Jon, Theon/Robb, Theon & Asha (if convincingly paired up I'm okay with shipping them), Davos/Stannis. Other characters other than the ones mentioned in the pairings: Tyrion, Jon Connington, Oberyn, the Sand Snakes, the Blackfish.
Characters and/or pairings you will NOT draw/write about: Cersei, Littlefinger, Viserys/Targaryens generally, Ramsay Bolton, Gregor Clegane; and Theon if the prompt requires non-con action (I'll gladly tackle him otherwise). Any ships with said people. I'm also not sure I'd manage to do Dany or Arya well if they were protagonists.
What kind of genres can you write I'm usually a slash writer, but in ASOIAF I mostly ship het, and I'm okay with gen too, so whatever goes. I'm good at AUs and humor-ish/crack things. I can work with angst as well. High ratings/violence/sex scenes aren't a problem.
Anything else I should know when I assign prompts to you? please no non-con prompts, death fics and no mpreg? That'd be it. Also, in the unlikely chances anyone asks for a Dark Tower series crossover, I'd kind of be on it like white on rice.
What kind of gift do you want to receive?
Fic and/or fanart? both would work! :D fanmixes would be lovely, too. Basically anything but wallpapers/icons will do.
Preferred characters and/or pairings: Jaime/Brienne, Sansa/Sandor, Jon/Sam, Robb paired with either Theon or Jon or Robb-centric gen, Theon & Asha (same as before - I don't really ship it but I could totally buy it), Stannis/Davos, Oberyn/anyone but the people I don't want, the Blackfish.
Characters and/or pairings you do NOT want to see/read about: Littlefinger (paired or not), Gregor Clegane (paired or not), Ramsay, Joffrey, Viserys.
What kind of fic/art do you generally want? my favorite genre is probably angsty/bittersweet stories with hopeful/sort of happy endings, but I also like AUs/humor/crack stuff, and I'll never say no to high ratings, but that's not necessary.
Give at least three and up to five prompts/ideas:
1. Post ADWD, Jaime and Brienne meet up with the Blackfish not long after the point where we left them. A grudging alliance happens in order to a) find Sansa, b) make Cat reason, not necessarily in that order.
2. Jaime/Brienne, something stressing gender issues (or lack of - maybe she's the one wearing the pants in their relationship and he loves it, or maybe she likes that he doesn't expect her to be a proper lady, or she's his champion in a trial, whatever you can think of).
3. Anything Jon/Sam. Really - I don't even have a proper prompt, but as long as they hook up someway I'll be happy.
4. Asha and Theon after ADWD.
5. GoT AU: Robb promised Bran that they'd go visit Jon on the wall. It happens. (Your choice if it's still in GOT or if you want to go totally AU with it.)
Your pet peeves and other things you DO NOT WANT in your story: generally: death fics/utterly bleak endings, non-con, mpreg and teeth-rotting fluff. Fandom-related: I don't really care for pairings made of people that haven't met in canon yet (IE Jon/Dany) and I don't really buy any theory floating around about some characters being secret Targaryens. If you go for ADWD Theon please don't have him and Jeyne hook up unless it's with endless complications and as angsty as it can get.
Are you willing to beta read for other writers? er, English is my second language so I'd probably need a beta myself, so I'd say nay.
Are you willing to pinch hit? Possibly.

Date: 2011-09-03 02:42 am (UTC)What kind of gift can you make?
Fic and/or fanart? Fic
Preferred characters and/or pairings: Stannis, Davos, Jon, Ned, Lyanna, Brandon, Robert, Renly, Loras&other Tyrells, Sansa, Tywin, Kevan, Roose, Sandor, and pretty much all slash pairings involving these characters. could maybe do the Greyjoys.
Characters and/or pairings you will NOT write about: Littlefinger, Varys, Jaime, Cersei, Tyrion, Daenerys or any other Targaryens, Brienne, the Martells.
What kind of genres can you write: slash and gen, not really good with het, no femslash. I can do angst, violence, fluff, romance and smut, as long as it's IC for the characters. no good with crackfic/humour/crossovers.
Anything else I should know when I assign you prompts? -
What kind of gift do you want to receive?
Fic and/or fanart? Fic
Preferred characters and/or pairings: Stannis, Davos, Jon (only after he became Lord Commander). Stannis/Davos, Stannis/Sansa, Stannis/Jon. Tywin, Kevan. Ned (and the other Starks), Robert, Manderly, Roose, Barristan, Renly and Loras are always welcome for guest appearances. also, Jon/the Wall, he belongs there.
Characters and/or pairings you do NOT want to read about: Melisandre (unless you plan to kill her off; mentions of Stannis/Melisandre only as dub/non-con), Littlefinger, Varys, the Martells, Daenerys, Brienne, Jaime, Cersei, Tyrion. no pairings involving these characters either.
What kind of fic/art do you generally want? gen or slash. no explicit het unless it's Stannis/Sansa. smut is great, but only if it has some sort of plot and is IC. focus on character analysis and interaction rather than on plot-heavy adventure stuff.
Give at least three and up to five prompts you would like to see written/drawn:
1- the Baratheon brothers, during their childhood/youth or shortly before GoT. Robert&Stannis, Renly&Stannis, or all three of them. Their conflicts, their differences, but maybe also memories of nicer moments (esp. between Stannis and Renly)? Anything, I'd just love to see some interaction between Stannis and his brothers, no matter what or when.
2- Stannis/Jon (set during ASoS/ADwD, or post-ADwD). UST or explicit slash, but I'd like to see the respect and maybe growing affection between them. (If it's set post-ADwD, it would be great to see them working and fighting together as allies, or meeting again years after the war when Stannis sits the Iron Throne and Jon is still Lord Commander. I can dream, right?)
3- Stannis/Davos. I'd love to see them earlier on in their relationship, but if you have an idea for something set during the books, that's fine as well. something bittersweet, full of longing and affection. explicit slash only if you can make it work, but I'd prefer in character UST to them acting out of character just so they can get it on.
4- one prompt that's not about Stannis, just in case: Tywin. character study, his relationships with his father, his siblings, and Joanna (though not with Tywin/Joanna as main focus of the story), less about his children nor about Aerys&Rhaegar.
5- AU for ACoK: what if Renly had bent the knee and joined forces with Stannis? Take any angle you like: a different version of the conversation between Stannis, Renly and Catelyn. Or Renly talking about this with Loras or other Tyrells, maybe having to explain that Margaery won't be queen after all. Or Stannis talking with Davos afterwards (and realising he doesn't need Melisandre after all). Or Catelyn telling Robb about it later and asking him to ally with Stannis as well, or a meeting between Stannis, Renly and Robb. Or ...
--> Feel free to combine these prompts and pairings in any way you like. I know the prompts are fairly long, but only because I wanted to include possible ideas for the prompts, and if you come up with something better, I certainly won't complain. ^^
Your pet peeves and other things you DO NOT WANT in your story: I'm not a Targaryen fan, so please no secret Targaryens (no R+L=J), Targaryens saving Westeros, Targaryens randomly appearing in stories about other characters etc. Don't bash Stannis, I adore the guy. I really hate Melisandre, so I'd appreciate her either not appearing at all or dying.
Are you willing to beta for other writers? Yes.
Are you willing to pinch hit? Maybe.

Active Email Address: Ask your momma ;)
Have you read (all) the books? Yes, and the novellas, and seen the show, and prowled randomly around westeros.org
What kind of gift can you make?
Fic and/or fanart? Fanfic.
Preferred characters and/or pairings: To write about: Jon and Robb being actually totally fucked up together instead of mindless sweetness. I’d write that one. I’d deconstruct the hell out of R+L=J. Bah. Stark kids in general, I’m interested in that... scheming awesome Loras, and his Renly. The Hound creeping on Sansa being sweet and innocent. Sansa, that is. Sweet and innocent. She has eaten my brain IDEK. Kingsguard, Night’s Watch – bunch of undersexed men together ^^ Oh and Griff and Aegon, (and Dunk&Egg too) even though I might go to a very special hell for it.... especially for Egg. Bad me.
Characters and/or pairings you will NOT draw/write about: Tyrion. Can’t get into his head, sorry. Theon, I don’t WANT to get into that head. Especially post-ADWD. Brr. Littlefinger. Don’t care, screw him... Daenerys. Argh, just, stuff I didn’t list up there.
What kind of genres can you write/what kind of pictures can you draw? I can do gen and slash, possibly even het, which is entirely Sansa’s fault. Can’t promise smut, but I like writing UST.... it depends on the character, a lot...
Anything else I should know when I assign prompts to you? Uhm... can’t think of anything now, but I’ll nag if sth comes up.
What kind of gift do you want to receive?
Fic and/or fanart? Fic, really.
Preferred characters and/or pairings: Jon/Robb, non-sweet; Jon/Satin ^^ Kingsguard fic, I’d love to know about their internal stuff. Dynamics, politics... Asha and Theon as siblings... Older Targaryen stuff, Baelor Breakspear, Dunk/Egg... and the prompt stuff. Uhm... it seems I like UST?
Characters and/or pairings you do NOT want to see/read about: I don’t buy R+L=J. Nope. I think Rhaegar got crazy and delusional, sorry. The Lannisters and Daenerys generally kinda leave me cold.... iwannabeanon...
What kind of fic/art do you generally want? Depends on prompt.... dark, comedy, smut, I like all.
Give at least three and up to five prompts/ideas:
Jon Connington/Rhaegar Targaryen: unrequited love; Rhaegar is completely oblivious, and unintentionally an awful tease.
Renly/Loras: Loras is in love with Renly, but Renly refuses to touch him until he is knighted. Loras is not happy... up to you if he succeeds or not. Tiny!Loras fail!seduction is as welcome as Loras jumping Renly the day he becomes a Ser. I just want Renly with, you know, a notion of honour. People forget that...
Crack-pairing Roose Bolton/Tyene Sand: he hires her to kill Ramsay and they just hit it off. Bonus brownie points if she is sweet enough to out-creep Roose.
Asha and Theon, post!ADWD, she helps him deal. Either right after they meet, or later, up to you. I’d prefer gen really, but whatever works for you, even merciful death. Just... no LOL U LOSER reaction.
The Tully men! (Shout out for the trout!!! *crickets chirp* … err, not too rousing, but few things rhyme with trout...) I’d love to know what the conflict between Hoster and Brynden is, and why Edmure seems completely uninvolved in it... Surprise me. (see notes below)
Your pet peeves and other things you DO NOT WANT in your story: Character bashing – yes, even Cersei... Blackfish being supposedly straight. Yeah, yeah, YMMV, but well, I don’t really want to read about a Hoster/Minisa/Brynden triangle. it’s just... too likely. And he’s too... happy for someone who STILL won’t marry because of a lost love. Just DNW. (In my headcanon he has a sweet longterm soldier boyfriend. Uh-huh.)
Are you willing to beta read for other writers? Uhm, English is not my first language, but I can check over style, content, and typos, orthography... my tenses can be off sometimes. So, if you’re a native speaker, that’d be okay though. I can talk for ages on characterisation.
Are you willing to pinch hit? Depends on the prompt, but you can ask.
