Creators are revealed, but the comment forms are still open! Stop on by the archive if you want to see what people have made and leave them feedback.

This was the exchange's third year, and I'm glad to see it still going strong. That said, I personally can't commit to running it indefinitely.

I'm going to run it once more in spring/summer of 2019, to close things off after the last book. After that, if someone else wants to take it over, I'm willing to hand off ownership of the exchange. If someone is interested but doesn't have experience modding on AO3, I'd be happy to take them on as a comod to get some experience next year.

This is a small and low-stress exchange to mod, and it'd be an easy one to take on as your first exchange. You'd need to be able to:

Set and enforce rules and deadlines
Use the AO3 tagset and collection interface
Respond to emails and comments in a timely way
Post on both LJ and DW
Review fic and art containing any sort of rating or content

There's plenty of time to work out a transition if someone is interested in doing so, so no need to respond right away. If you're interested, you can contact the exchange email at hamiathesmod@gmail.com.

We're currently on track to go live tomorrow, Saturday the 25th, at 10 PM EDT! What time is that for me?

The final pinch hit is covered but does have an extension. I'll post if there will be any delays to the archive opening.

pendrecarc

We're past the deadline!

A few people requested extensions, so if you don't have a gift work yet, don't panic. :)

We also have two pinch hits. These are due at 10 PM, EDT, on Thursday, August 23rd.

To claim these pinch hits, please comment with the number you're taking, your AO3 name, and an email address where I can reach you. All comments to this post are screened to preserve anonymity. If you don't have an AO3 name but can fulfill this request, just let me know--we can work that out!

Pinch Hit #1 is covered!

( Pinch Hit #2 - Costis/Kamet (Fanfiction), Godekker (Fanfiction) )

Hello, everyone! We're about two weeks in and four weeks from the deadline. Your assignments are due on Saturday, August 18th, at 10 PM EDT.

A few notes:

Whether or not you're signed up for the exchange, you're welcome to post gifts, or extra treats! I've compiled the list of requests in this spreadsheet for easy filtering and searching. To send someone a treat, post it on AO3 to the Hamiathes' Gift Exchange 2018 collection--you can use the "Post to Collection" button on the top right--and enter their AO3 name precisely as it appears on the spreadsheet in the "Gift this work to" field.

If you're interested in reviewing fanworks and providing feedback, or if you're looking for someone to review your assignment, check out the Beta Post! To be sure all the beta offers are in one place, I'm only making this post on Dreamwidth, but you don't need a Dreamwidth account to comment.

Pinch hits will go up here at Dreamwidth as soon as anyone defaults on their assignment, and I'll post announcements to Livejournal and Tumblr. If you do need to default, please do so as early as possible so there's plenty of time to find someone to cover the the assignment.

Have fun, all!

When are you available/other details?:
What is your email address?:

If you signed up for the exchange, you should have received an email notifying you of your assignment. If you don't see it, check your spam folder--if that doesn't work, let me know!

Please contact me privately via gmail at hamiathesmod if you have any questions or concerns about your assignment. If you want to ask your recipient for any clarification or additional detail, I can send along your questions anonymously.

All assignments are due at 10 PM EDT on Saturday, August 18th. What time is that for me?

There are two days left to sign up for the exchange! Signups close at 10 PM EDT on Sunday the 8th, so you still have most of the weekend.

You can sign up here.

If you're curious about what's being requested and offered, you can see a detailed list of requests or the signup summary (though be warned, the summary isn't being updated as often as it should!).

Come join us!

All right, everyone, nominations are closed, the tag set is finalized, and signups are open! If you've done a Yuletide-style exchange on AO3 before, the process should be pretty similar. If you haven't, have a look at the explanation and examples below, check out the FAQ and rules on AO3, and let me know if you have questions!

Also, please spread the word--the more, the merrier.

The signup link is here!

Quick points:

Signups are open until Sunday, July 8th
You'll need an AO3 account to sign up. You can request one here if you don't already have one. The wait list is currently at about 9 days, which should give you just enough time, but if you want to be sure I do have an extra code.
Please read the rules before signing up so you know what you're agreeing to do

Hi, all! Amid the general excitement over book 6 news, a couple of announcements on tag set nominations.

First, if you want to participate in the fanfiction and fanart exchange, you'll need an AO3 account. You can request one here. The waiting period is currently just over a week, which means you'll be too late for nominations but in time to sign up for the exchange. I do have one extra invitation I can send if you want an invite sooner than that, and others may have some available, too--leave a comment if you need one!

Second, just a reminder that nominations will close on June 28th at 10 PM EDT! You can see the tag set here and make nominations here.

Third, I've been asked if I'll allow more specific worldbuilding nominations, such as Worldbuilding: Songs about Ennikar & Immakuk. I'm happy to allow this, so feel free to include those nominations!

Finally, to whoever has an unapproved nomination for Relationship: Eugenides/Irene, this has already been approved as the tag Relationship: Attolia/Eugenides. I've left your nomination unapproved so you can change it to something else if you want.

Nominations for the 2018 Hamiathes' Gift Exchange are open! They will close on June 28th at 10 PM EDT.

You can nominate both characters and relationships. See below for details. I have also included Worldbuilding (Any Character) as a tag for those who want to request a stories about the mythology, history, cultures, etc. of The Queen's Thief without specifying individual characters.

As always, feel free to get in touch if you have questions, and please share a link with on your journal/Tumblr/other platform of choice!

The tag set is here.
