Tuesday, July 6th, 2021

Yesterday, I learned about a new fanfic gift exchange,

retrotvexchange, which reminds me of the defunct exchanges

myoldfandom and

oldschoolfic. Specifically, this exchange celebrates television canons that closed no later than the 2001-2002 season.* Pretty much all scripted fiction genres are eligible (an exception is variety shows).

retrotvexchange requires a minimum of 1K words or graphic-art equivalent. Participants request and offer 3-10 fandoms. They plan an accompanying prompt-challenge fest, to accommodate folks who have too few eligible fandoms for the exchange.

Schedule:

Nominate: July 15 – 22
Sign up: July 26 – August 1
Due: September 19
Reveal: October 2 (or as soon as all exchange creators have a gift in queue).

* In the US, a broadcast television "season" traditionally aligns roughly with the school year, mid-August to mid-June, especially encompassing the November, February, and May "sweeps" that were the lifeblood of broadcast ratings. July "sweeps" were omitted, from the traditional belief that folks watched too little television in the summer for advertisers to care.
