[info]beholder_mod: Fic/Art Exchange 2008 Sign-Up Post

Note: Your loyal mod will be spending most of today - February 1 - in a car, and therefore will be unable to answer any questions you might have about the sign-up process. However, I will be responding to all queries as soon as possible, certainly before I go to sleep tonight. In the interim, this General Information post should answer most, if not all of your questions.

Remember, as you fill out the template that this is an exchange and that what you'll be creating will be a gift for one of your fellow fans, so please make every effort to take their wishes into account when you're creating your art or fic (including, if you can, the addition information at the bottom of the recipient's sign-up form, even though there's no absolute requirement that you follow those particular wishes).

Having said that, you've probably noticed that this exchange is a little more heavily weighted toward making things easy for the artists and writers than is true for a lot of exchanges. In many cases, participants will be creating fic and art featuring characters they've never considered focusing on before, so giving them a little more freedom of choice should make the process easier.

And now, on to the sign-ups:

Remember, as per the timeline, the sign-up period is a little over a week. The deadline is 12:00 noon EST (UTC/GMT -5 hours) on February 8th, so everybody has plenty of time to sign-up . . . and to nudge their friends into participating!
