    What is an Exchange?

    An exchange is an event where creators exchange fic/art! Creators sign up to create and receive a gift work from other creators.How does this event work?
    1.) Participants will sign up to create and receive one LCF related fanwork.
    2.) They are then randomly assigned to another but your identity is kept secret.
    3.) They will then be asked for their requests/prompts (specify tropes, characters, and/or pairings they wish to receive, as well as tropes they do not wish to receive/create works for.)
    Requests will be matched with creators based on these preferences!4) Once assignments are sent, participants will be making a fanwork based on the prompt/request given to them.5.) Gifts will then be posted on December 25.

    Once assignments are sent, you will be making an artwork based on the prompt/request given to you! The details regarding the minimum requirements for both artists and writers can be seen in the rules section.
