The preference is overwhelmingly for the fall! So here's the schedule for Hetswap 2020:

Nominations: July 1 - July 15
Sign Ups: July 15 - July 23 July 24
Assignments out by July 25 at the latest
Works due: September 12
Collection revealed: September 26
Creators revealed: October 3

Deadlines for works and exact time for reveals TBA, since your mod's work schedule is an unholy mess at the moment. We'll see you in July for noms!

Hey guys, I hope everyone has been hanging in there during the weird, surreal world-changing events of the last few months! With everything that's been happening in the world, I understand that fannish stuff might not be at the forefront of everyone's priority list. But I also see how it could be a much needed break from real life, so I wanted to gauge interest for a 2020 round for Het Swap, and get some feedback on a potential schedule from those of you who might want to participate.

I've drawn up two tentative schedules, one for summer and one for late summer/into the fall. I'm a hundred percent open to adjusting these, and I have no preference myself for one or the other. I've kept the timeline the same in-between assignments and the due date, but I've built in more for nominations, and between the due date and reveals to give pinch hitters a little extra breathing room.

Summer:

Nominations: June 7 - June 21
Sign Ups: June 22 - June 30
Assignments out by July 2 at the latest
Works due: August 20
Collection revealed: September 3
Creators revealed: September 10

Fall:

Nominations: July 1 - July 15
Sign Ups: July 15 - July 23
Assignments out by July 25 at the latest
Works due: September 12
Collection revealed: September 26
Creators revealed: October 3

So quite a bit of creating time in these. I'm open to adjusting this as well, and any other thoughts you have.

Please do chime in if you're interested, if only to say hi! (And certainly to let me know which time frame you would prefer.) Best wishes to all of you!

Hello everyone!

HetSwap is officially a go for 2018! I'm [personal profile] wynnebat, the new mod for this exchange. I'm thrilled to be running this exchange this year thanks to [personal profile] fangirlism, who has allowed me to follow in their footsteps. Although the dates for the original schedule have already passed, I'm hoping to start the exchange soon and keep it as a winter-spring exchange.

My proposed schedule for 2018:

Nominations: Wednesday, January 24 @12:01AM - Saturday, February 3 @11:59PM
Sign-Ups: Monday, February 5 @12:01AM - Monday, February 12 @11:59PM
Assignments out by: Wednesday, February 14 @11:59PM
Assignments due by: Monday, April 2 @11:59PM
Works revealed: Monday, April 9 @8PM
Creators revealed: Monday, April 16 @8PM

All times are in EST. This schedule leaves for 6.5 weeks to create a work and as far as I can tell, there are no other fic exchange assignment deadlines that week. I'm open to postponing the assignment deadline by two weeks (to the 16th, the week after [community profile] space_swap and [community profile] smutswap are due) if the timeframe feels too short.

I'm also interested in raising the minimum word count to 1,000 words, but if there's a strong consensus to keep it at 500, I'm happy to keep it that way.

Comment below or shoot me an email (hetswapex@gmail.com) with your opinions/questions/concerns!

- Wynne

Edit: I'll be making a post later with the new guidelines/reaffirmation of the dates, but I've decided to keep this proposed schedule and go ahead with the word count increase.

Hello hello!

I hope everyone is just as excited as I am for the second annual Het Swap fic exchange! I've got a tentative schedule (which is roughly the same schedule we ran with last year), and since we've got a lot more time before noms open, I'm open to suggestions if this schedule doesn't work for you, and can easily adjust it!

Jan 9-16: Nominations
Jan 18-25: Signups
Around Jan 28: Assignments go out
Feb 27: Assignments due
Mar 6: Go Live
Mar 13: Author Reveal

I'm going to be making a few minor changes to nominations (nothing too huge though), that I'll go over more in detail once those open.

Looking around the exchange scene I discovered (well, through a casual Google search) that there wasn't one for het pairings. So I decided to change that! And Het Swap was born!

Schedule currently looks like:

Jan 10-17: Nominations
Jan 19-26: Signups
Around Jan 29: Assignments go out
Feb 28: Assignments due
Mar 7: Go Live
Mar 14: Author Reveal

(Also for the purposes of the exchange: I will be defining a het pairing as one where one partner is male or genderqueer/non-binary and the other is female or genderqueer/non-binary, but both cannot be genderqueer/non-binary. So for example: if A is male, B is female, and C and D are both genderqueer/non-binary, then the only pairing not allowed is C/D)

Full rules post coming soon, and see you in a few days for noms!
