Here be signups for the 2010 Wizard Love Exchange
Wizard Love 2010 sign-ups are here! We hope to see lots of new faces this year as well as many returning friends and veterans. Before you sign up, however, we ask that you make sure you've read the rules. A few things have changed since last year. Watchers, we'd like for you to read them as well, so that you know what to expect from the fest.

The sign-up form is below. Just copy and paste it, fill it out, and submit it in a comment to this post.

You must provide at least 5 pairings you're willing to receive. It's best if you're willing to write/draw a variety of pairings as well. This is a multi-pairing fest. If you're only interested in one or two pairings, this is probably not the fest for you.

Please remember that not everyone has read the same fics or played in the same RPGs as you. Don't request scenarios from another fanfic author's universe or characters from an RPG. Stick with canon characters in the canon universe (AUs that deviate from canon are fine, of course). No crossovers allowed. Please consider requesting characters about whom we know at least a little from canon. This will make it much easier for your gifter to write/draw for you as well as for us to match up assignments.

Try to be as specific as possible about your likes and dislikes for your gifter. Think about including not only sexual kinks and squicks, but story elements and themes you enjoy, your preferences for time periods, tones you like or dislike (e.g. you love darkfic but hate fluff), your feelings about AU, EWE, interview "canon," etc.

If there's anyone for whom you'd rather not write/draw because they're your writing buddy or your beta, or you've written/drawn for them in every exchange ever, email us and we'll take care of you. Just do it quickly so we can begin matching up assignments shortly after sign-ups have closed!

By signing up, you are indicating that you understand that your recipient's gift is due by January 18, 2010. If you are running late, you will request an extension and keep the mods informed about your progress. If circumstances force you to drop out, you will let us know as soon as possible.
