due South Summer Swap

Creators are now revealed! You can now link to your work, repost it elsewhere, edit your author notes with any additional revealing information you might have wanted to add, or anything you’d like to do with your works after the reveals.

Thank you to everyone for making this a great inaugural year!

I'm definitely planning it on running this exchange again, so watch this community for the announcement post next year.

Thank you all once again for participating!

All the assignments are in and the collection will be revealed on 4 July! Here's a new countdown to the reveals!

In the event that you'll be away from internet and won't be able to comment on your gift until late in the anon period, or after the anon period, you can comment here to let your author/artist know when you expect to be able to open your gift.

I hope you're as excited to the reveals as me! \o/ Happy waiting/writing/arting!

Just a reminder that the assignments are due in five days, at 11:59 p.m. UTC on June 27. Here's a handy countdown. PM me or send an email if you are not going to make the deadline and need an extension!

We don't have pinch hits so far, but treats are welcome if anyone would like to work on anything.

The deadline is getting near, and there are some works already in. I hope you're excited! I'm excited! :D

Your assignment should now be waiting for you in your email and AO3 account. Good luck! I hope you like your assignment! Please email or DM me if you believe there is an error with your assignment or if you have other concerns.

Here are some preliminary notes and reminders.

A check-in post will go up on June 5. Like previously said, it's not mandatory but all the participants are encouraged to comment on your progress.

All assignments are due June 27th at 11:59pm UTC. You will have the remaining week to make finishing touches before reveals, but your gift must be complete and stand on its own as a gift by the works deadline of June 27.

Remember that you must create a fanwork for one of your recipient's requested character or pairing tags, but it only has to be one of them, and it doesn't have to be the one(s) you offered if you see something in their request you like better.

Please keep your assignment secret so that it will be a surprise!

There are no initial pinch hits, but any pinch hits that come up will be posted here at due_south_summer_swap, so follow this comm for those. You can also start working on treats immediately, anyone can create treats or claim pinch hits, whether or not you're signed up. If you'd like to find someone to treat, you can look at all the requests here.

Thank you, and I hope you'll have fun with due South Summer Swap 2021!

The AO3 collection is open for posting, so you can post assignments and treats whenever they're done; it will be hidden until reveals in early July.

Happy creating!

This is a reminder that sign-ups are closing in two days, on May 9 at 11:59 PM UTC. (A countdown at this link.)
