FAQ

Q: What is this gift exchange? A: This is a fandom event where people do an exchange of created digital works! This means someone will submit a prompt to be created by another, and they will fulfill a prompt that's been submitted! Everyone who submits a work will get one in return.

Q: How do I sign up? A: The sign-up form is open until June 1st at 11:59 p.m. EDT/3:59 a.m. GMT

Q: When's the deadline to submit? A: The deadline to submit is September 20th, at 11:59 p.m. EDT/4 a.m. GMT

Q: What kind of works can be submitted? A: Only fanfics and fanart will be accepted for this gift exchange.

Q:What do I do if I need to contact about my form/participation/any other questions? A: Feel free to message this tumblr or send an email to wcgiftexchange@gmail.com. Please be sure to include your username, especially if you're contacting through a tumblr account that isn't your main blog.

Q: What does being a pinch hitter/back up filler mean? A: Being a pinch hitter means that if someone drops out last minute, you would step in to create a work based off a prompt in a shorter amount of time.

Q: Why are works only being revealed on September 21st? A: This is mostly to help the event feel a little more special and fun, to mimic how "typical" gift exchange/secret santas work, where people show up to a party with a gift in hand!

Q: What happens if I finish my work early? A: If you submit it to the AO3 collection, it won't be publicly available until September 21st, when all work will be revealed. If you're posting it to tumblr, I implore you to hold off on posting it until the reveal date.

If there are any more questions, please feel free to ask me! I'm not to running an event like this so I'm sure I haven't covered everything you might be curious about :)

Rules! ✨

This is a fandom gift exchange, meaning that for every prompt submitted, someone is there to fulfill one! By signing up, you're agreeing to fulfil the prompt that will be sent to you.

WRITERS will have a minimum word count of 1k, and I encourage them to be no more than 10kalthough not strongly enforced.

ARTISTS will have a minimum clean sketch, meaning that it will have a refined outline, without distracting guidelines, and a generally polished look (reference provided below)

No NSFW or Crossover prompts please! This means no sexually explicit prompts, and while I know there's a large crossover fandom in White Collar, I personally would like to keep this as a White Collar-specific fandom event. Thank you for understanding!

The Deadline for sign-ups is June 1st at 11:59 p.m. EDT, 3:59 a.m. GMT! You will be contacted with your prompts by June 15th.

The Deadline for submitting your work will be September 20th, 11:59 p.m. EDT/September 21st 3:59 a.m. GMT, but there will be a check in on your progress on August 16th.

This check in will make sure you've made enough progress to show an intent to finish! If you don't respond to the check in by August 30th, your prompts will be sent to pinch hitters/back up fillers instead.

Works published to AO3 should be submitted to the White Collar Gift Exchange collection. These works will be revealed on September 21st, meaning that they will not be able to be read until they are revealed.

If you're posting elsewhere, please do not post your work until September 21st when the rest of the gifts will be revealed!

When you do post your work, make sure to use the tag "WCGiftExchange2025" 🎊
