A Song of Ice and Fire - Fanfic and Fanart Exchange

If you repost your fic on AO3, you can add it to the got_exchange collection. Thanks to everyone who has participated by writing, drawing, beta-reading, and commenting, and a special thank you to thinkatory and janie_tangerine for pinch-hitting. I hope that everyone enjoyed participating and liked the gift they received.

Since this round was relatively small, I'm wondering if maybe there's a bit of an exchange fatigue going about? So I figured I'd make a poll again to ask you guys when you want the next round to take place. I'll leave it open for a few days and then set the schedule for the next round accordingly.

[Poll #2009341]

As always, if you have any suggestions or questions, let me know. And thanks again to everyone for participating. :)

That's it for round six, everything has been posted. You can find the masterlist here. Comments have been pretty slow this round, so if you catch up on some of the fics you've missed, it'd be nice if you could also comment on them. Some people haven't commented yet on their own gifts. That's incredibly rude to the person who wrote for you, so please make sure to comment on the fic written for you if you haven't done so yet.

Thanks to everyone who has participated this time. It was a small round, but I hope everyone still enjoyed it. Special thanks to youremyqueen, kylathelurker and breve for pinch-hitting: you're all wonderful and I can't thank you enough.

I hope everyone is up for another exchange in the near future. Since real life is currently a bit busy for me and I'm somewhat less flexible than usual, I'll just go ahead and suggest the following schedule for round 7:

Sign-ups open from May 8th to May 17th
Assignments sent out on Sunday, May 19th
Deadline on Sunday, July 7th
Posting starts on July 8th

[Poll #1911427]


If there are reasons why this schedule is generally terrible (if it coincides with other ASOIAF exchanges or big bangs or something like that), please tell me. As always I'm open to any suggestions or ideas to make this exchange more enjoyable for everyone. If you have any questions or complaints, please let me know and I'll see what I can do. Btw, I'm thinking of changing the number of prompts you ask for in your sign-up to 4-6 (instead of 3-5), because my experience so far has been that people who only give me 3 prompts are incredibly difficult to assign. ;) Just a heads-up in case you already want to start thinking about your prompts.

Again, thanks to all of you for participating. Is there still any interest for the comment fic meme? I always enjoy it a lot, but there wasn't an awful lot of participation the last few times, probably because of the kinkmeme. But of course I'll post it tonight or tomorrow if you want me to. :)

Round four of the exchange is over. [Poll #1872147]

I should add to that that I won't be home in early November, so the sign-up post either goes up in mid-October so I can do the assignments before I leave, or in mid-November when I'm back. Just in case that makes a difference to anyone.

Btw, the comment fic meme is up and running. More prompts and fills are very welcome. Don't be shy, go and prompt and write. ;)

So, everything has been posted. I hope everybody liked their gift. The masterlist is [Poll #1824064][Poll #1824065]


Independently from the exchange, I will post a new comment fic meme tomorrow. It was a huge success last time, and I thought it would be nice to do this again, just to tide us over to the next exchange, whenever that will be. For those of you who weren't around yet for the first comment fic meme: here's the masterlist of all fills from last time (and there were about 30 ficlets written, so it's worth having a look if you missed it).

Again: thanks to everybody for writing all these wonderful fics, drawing gorgeous pictures, and generally making this exchange so much fun. I hope we can do this again soon. :)

That's it,  the exchange is over, everything has been posted. A masterlist has been compiled [Poll #1796008][Poll #1796009][Poll #1796010]

Since this is the first time I've organised an exchange, some feedback about what you liked or disliked would be nice. Did you dislike anything about the organisation? About the sign-up form? About the posting schedule? About the way I generally ran things? Just let me know. I'm not saying that I will agree with every suggestion, but I definitely want to hear and think about them. ^^ Feel also free to leave any other sort of feedback on the exchange, if it made you discover new pairings, if you want to tell people about your favourite fic/art, whatever.

Oh, and one last question: depending on how much time will pass until the next exchange, would you be interested in participating in a kinkmeme or commentfics or writing challenges here on this comm to tide us over until the next exchange? I'm just asking because I wouldn't mind organising something, but there's no point to it if nobody wants to participate anyway.
