thisaintbcPinch Hit - Claimed!
Aug. 15th, 2022 03:06 pmthisaintbcHello! We have a pinch hit for the exchange. You can find the details below.
Pinch Hit #1 - fic - Manner of Death, A Tale of Thousand Stars, You're My Sky - any rating
General exchange requirements are for fic to be at least 1k; pinch hits do not have to meet this requirement. We would like if pinch hits could be submitted by 11:59pm Bangkok time on August 23, in advance of go-live on August 24, but we are willing to work with pinch hitters if they need more time than that.
If you're interested in claiming this pinch hit, please comment on this post, send a PM on dreamwidth, DM us on twitter or discord (missionlameturtle#7625), or send us an email (blexchangemultifandom@gmail.com).

Treats Incoming!
Aug. 12th, 2022 10:26 amthisaintbcAs you may remember from the FAQ, we are doing treats for this exchange! If you're unfamiliar, treats are extra little bonus fanworks that anyone can make for anyone else, based on any of their requests. Treats don't have size/length requirements - they're just for fun!
- treats must still respect the recipient's DNWs and be for one of their requested 1) fandoms and 2) characters or relationships
- you do not have to be participating in the exchange to create treats
- if you are participating in the exchange, please do not post treats to the collection until after you've submitted your assigned exchange work
- treats must be posted on or before September 16
We'll be making requests public a little later today for anyone who thinks they might be interested in making treats!

Nominations Housekeeping Notes
Jul. 1st, 2022 12:53 pmthisaintbc- Oh! My Sunshine Night: we decided to make an exception for this fandom since it will begin airing before sign-ups close, but in the future we will not allow shows that begin airing after the nominations period. Included in the tag set.
- Semantic Error: a Korean BL (outside of the 2022 exchange's scope). Deleted from the tag set.
- He's Coming To Me: nominated without characters or relationships; nominator did not respond to attempts to contact them. Deleted from the tag set.
Sign-Ups Open!
Jun. 30th, 2022 09:58 amthisaintbc
Sign-ups will be open from today, June 30th, until 11:59pm Bangkok time on July 10th (what time is that for me?).
There were 34 different fandoms added to the tag set during our nominations; you can find the complete list of them, as well as the characters and relationships that were nominated, here!

Sign-Ups Open Tomorrow!
Jun. 29th, 2022 06:08 pmthisaintbcSign-ups will open tomorrow! For the meantime, here's a few quick reminders about some key pieces of info:
- You can offer/request fic, art, a vid, or podfic for this exchange!
- You'll be able to make three requests & three offers.
- We do ask that you request at least two fandoms & that at least one of your requests is for fic. (If you're only familiar enough with one fandom to request it, please get in touch with us about an exception!)
- The minimum word count for fic is just 1k, & we've tried to make the requirements for other kinds of fanworks comparably manageable.
- This exchange will be run through AO3; if you need an AO3 invite, please shoot us a DM & we can help with that!
