2020 Sign-Ups Open

Welcome to this year's Crossworks! You can sign up here and see requests here. The tag set is here.

Sign-up guidelines
  • You will fill in 3-10 requests and 3-10 offers.

  • Each offer and request is for a group of fandoms, with minimum 2 and maximum 10.

  • You must include at least 5 distinct fandoms and at least 5 different possible fandom combinations across all your requests.

  • You must not arrange your requests so that it's impossible to fulfil them without knowing one specific fandom. For example: please don't make five requests in the style AxB, AxC, AxD, AxE, and AxF, because any gift for you would need to contain fandom A.

  • You could receive, or be asked to create for, any combination of 2 fandoms that is in a single request or offer. The more fandoms in a single request or offer, the more possible combinations there are, and the less you can predict what you'll receive or be asked to create!

  • Please do not put closely related fandoms in the same continuity into the same request. Some examples:
    • Please don't put Discworld - Terry Pratchett and Discworld (Death Series) - Terry Pratchett in the same request;

    • Please don't put The Avengers (Marvel Movies) and Captain America (Movies) in the same request;

    • Please don't put Star Wars Original Trilogy and Star Wars Sequel Trilogy in the same request.

  • Please don't make 2 or more requests whose tags are precisely the same (Art/Crossover and Fic/Crossover would count as different tags).

  • Offers are less restricted than requests. You're welcome to put closely-related fandoms in the same offer, to arrange your offers so that you're guaranteed to be creating for your favorite fandom combined with another fandom, or to enter two or more identical offers. If there is no one you can create for at the end of the sign-up period, I will contact you to invite you to expand your offers, with a period of time for you to do so.

  • You are welcome to leave prompts in the Optional Prompts and DNW box of your requests. Your creator is not required to follow them.

  • You are also welcome to link to an external letter for your prompts and likes.

  • If there are tropes or content that would ruin a work from you, please list them as Do-Not-Wants (DNWs) in the sign-up form. Do-Not-Wants in letters will not be enforced by the mod.

  • You cannot specify which characters your creator should include in their work for you, beyond what is in the fandom. However, if there are characters or relationships you strongly dislike, you can use your DNWs to exclude them. Please use discretion here - don't box your creator in and restrict them from using half the cast.

  • In each offer and request, please tick 1-4 of the boxes for Art/Crossover, Art/Fusion, Fic/Crossover, and Fic/Fusion. Art/Crossover means that you will get (or create) a piece of artwork that depicts a crossover. For how we're defining crossover and fusion, see the FAQ.

  • If you'd like to give additional information about what you want to receive or create (or who you want to receive from or create for), you can put information in the Notes to Mod box is offers. This is seen only by me. Or email me - morbane, gmail.


Have fun!

Since the format of the exchange makes it difficult to sort requests, a letters post will go up shortly.

Sign-ups will close at 11:59pm EDT on 23 June 2020. Countdown!
