All Pinch Hits In & Away-From-Keyboard Notes

[modzilla]

I am looking forward to opening the collection at 11:59pm EST on Friday 12 March. Here, for the brave, is a countdown. Pinch hitters: thank you.

The works will remain anonymous through Friday 26 March. It is not a requirement of the exchange that you must comment on your work during the anon period*. However, many exchange participants consider it a tradition to try to comment during this period. Also, everyone has worked hard on their stories and art and many creators will be excited to see what their recipients think. Therefore, if you would like to adjust your creator's expectations because the start of reveals is a bad time for you, you're welcome to leave a comment on this post to say your comment will be delayed.


*Comments are required eventually - ie, before you sign up again. They are also required for the "in good steading with the exchange" part of claiming prizes for Triple Crown.

Authors - I am super, super excited to read what you're gifting me, but it will probably be a few days until I get to both of your fics! I'm guessing I'll comment on both fics sometime early to mid next week (I'm busy/working this weekend).

Authors—I will probably leave a comment on your first chapter in the style of This Is Just To Say telling you how excited I will be to read it, but I might not be able to finish reading in one go because untreated ADD is difficult and I have few spoons on good days. But I will read and comment as soon as I can.

I'm so excited to read my gift! But I'll be moving on the weekend of reveals, and won't have access to the internet until the work week starts up - at which point I'll likely be too busy to sit down and properly savor my gift until the weekend. /o\ Rest assured that I'll be reading and loving it in the pockets of time I can get until the next weekend comes!

I go by comicartista on ao3. I'm really excited to read my gift, but it will probably take me some time to do it. I have a to work on diploma thesis and presentation, deadline march 22 and untill then I'll probably be too busy to do anything else. But dear writer/artist, I will read and comment as soon as I can! I'm very curious what the story is about and sure it's amazing :)

Dear author, thank you for creating for me! I am also skatzaa on ao3. I don't know that I'll get to your wonderful work immediately—real life and my mental health are making it hard for me to do much of anything right now—but please do know that I will read it and comment eventually!

greetings, lovely author!

I go by Elsin on ao3, and for a variety of reasons I am not able to comment at the moment--I will! I just can't right now.
