SIGN UPS ARE OFFICIALLY OPEN! TO SIGN UP, CLICK HERE!

Hello, everyone! We know that there are so many fic exchanges going on around this time, but we felt like it was prime time to create this one: The H/L Nonbinary Fic Exchange! We are super excited to do this, and we hope it all goes well.

A fic exchange is a beautiful process where one person submits a certain amount of prompts (in this case, 3-5) they would like to have written for them, and in return they will write a fic based on the prompts submitted by another person. It starts out anonymously; you know who you’re writing for, but the recipient doesn’t know who you are, and you don’t know the person who’s writing a fic for you. After a certain amount of time, all of the authors will be revealed. 

Now, onto some very important information about this exchange:

PURPOSE OF THIS FIC EXCHANGE:

This fic exchange is meant to increase the NB representation and visibility in the fandom, as well as increase the amount of fics with said representation (seriously, this fandom is so lacking in this aspect, it’s just sad.)

GUIDELINES & RULES:

First and foremost, one or both of the main characters has to be nonbinary. That’s the entire point of this exchange :D For more information on what nonbinary is or means, and all other gender identities that fall under this wonderful umbrella, click here or feel free to ask us questions! Remember, we’re trying to increase representation but we’re going to do so accurately and respectfully; so please, don’t be afraid to ask questions if you’re unsure about something ♥

The main characters/pairing is Harry/Louis. You are, of course, more than welcome to incorporate any and all pairings you wish to your fic - just make sure they’re not your main pairing. 

The minimum word count for this fic exchange is 4,000 words. However, we definitely encourage everyone to write as much as they want! The longer, the better ♥

When you’re signing up, make sure to include three to five prompts! Be as detailed as possible, so that the person who gets your prompts knows exactly what you want and how you want it! 

All fics must be beta’d before submission! For those who don’t know, betaing is when someone proofreads and edits your fic so that it’s all polished and beautiful! We will be posting a list of betas soon after the sign ups are closed. If you’re interested in being a beta and/or a britpicker, fill out this form!

This is an anonymous fic exchange; therefore, when submitting your fic, be sure to not include your tumblr or anything that might give you away. You are welcome to ask us for information regarding the person you’re writing for, and if we have the information, and the person has previously given us permission to share such information, we will give it to you. 

Last but definitely not least, if you signed up but cannot, for any kind of reason, fulfill your assignment, please message us as soon as possible! The point of an exchange is to give and receive a fic, and we want to make sure everyone who writes, gets something written for them. We understand that complications may arise, but please, let us know. The general, drop-out date is posted below. Eventually, we will post a form for all of those interested in being pinch-hitters.

IMPORTANT DATES:

June 1st: Sign Ups Officially Open!

June 25th: Sign Ups Officially Close! 

July 1st: Assignments are Delivered!

November 30th: Fics are Due!  (That gives y’all almost five months to write your fics!)

YOU CAN ALWAYS CONTACT US THROUGH:

Tumblr

FINALLY, ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT STUFF:

It’s a process of giving and receiving, so please don’t sign up for this exchange if you have no intention of writing a fic. That’s usually the biggest problem in fic exchanges, so please, please, please, don’t be a meanie.

Remember: FIC EXCHANGES ARE ALL ABOUT HAVING FUN! Don’t worry about “not being good enough” - you are definitely more than good enough! Even if this is your first time writing - fic exchanges are meant to help you polish your abilities and skills, so never be afraid of joining because you don’t have much experience. You have five months to write it - if you need any help, let us know!

Also, if you feel unsure about something concerning the gender identity you’re writing about - don’t hesitate to ask us! We might not know absolutely everything there is to know, but we’re going to inform ourselves plenty in order to make sure these fics are wonderful, accurate and respectful. You can make your character’s identity the main part of your plot, you can make it a fact evident throughout but not the entire focus - it’s all good, but make sure you present it accurately! Here is some general information of many of the gender identities that fall under the nonbinary umbrella. 

If your question and/or doubt isn’t answered above, feel free to pop in our askbox! We will get back to you ASAP! Have fun ♥

Should the prompts be related to their nb identities or can we give a more general prompt and let the author choose how to incorporate it?

Hello!!

The prompts can be general if you wish, though it’d be awesome if you could incorporate a little bit of info as to what you want to see, exactly :) That way the author is 100% sure that you’re okay with whatever they choose to write!

you know that the transnonbinary 1D exchange is already a thing? they're going to start posting mid-June. I mean, hooray for more nb representation in fic but this void is already filled.

Well, we weren’t aware of that, sorry! 

But still! The more the better, wouldn’t you think? 

(Mod 1: Also, I don’t think the “void” will ever be filled because there is such a severe lack of rep as a whole. So I don’t see what the problem with having more fics with NB/trans rep is!)

(Mod 2: AGREED!!!! ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^)

What is a britpicker and beta? What is the difference in them?

Hello! 

So, a Britpicker is a person, usually British, who reads through fan fiction written by a non-British author to check for accuracy when the characters and/or settings are British.

A Beta is a person who proof-reads or edits fanfiction.

So basically, both of them edit/proofread, though britpickers only check for the accuracy of certain words or terms; betas, however, edit everything in a fic and don’t necesarily britpick. Hope this helps!
