reveals delay

I’m giving myself a 24 hour delay on the author reveals. It’ll now take place at 11:59pm EST December 7, because Reasons.

Be sure to check out the collection of fics and give out some comments, because there have been some new treats posted since the works were revealed!

Some updated information about treating under the cut:

I’m aiming for everyone to get, in addition to their Official Gift, a little something extra, even if it’s just a drabble, so I’m gonna post a list of the people who haven’t got an extra treat yet and update it until everyone’s got a treat!

Treats aren’t mandatory tho so if people are a bit exhausted w/ fic writing already, no worries. I’ve got a couple drabble ideas myself already and I can turn out drabbles like no one’s business!

treatless list (AO3 names):

Vamillepudding

shoshe_anders

queuebird

museme87

You can see the list of requests alphabetically here.

deadline has passed! There’s a few people with one-day extensions and one possible pinch hit, so if you don’t have a gift yet, don’t worry!

It’s a week till work reveals, and in the meantime the collection is still open if you want to write treats for friends. Treats can be any length at all, and I’m aiming to get a spreadsheet together in the next few days (once all assignments are in) to see if we can get everyone a little treat, even just a drabble per.

having been able to take a peek at certain things, lemme just say...this one’s gonna be a doozy. we’ve got everything from the Big Ship to a poly ship to a crossover ship so rare that it’s never been written before. current record-holder for longest fic is longer than 6000 words! and everything is so creative. you guys are the best 🥰

Welcome to the Tommy/Alfie Prompt Fest 2019! This fest is focused on the romantic relationship between Tommy Shelby and Alfie Solomons on Peaky Blinders.

This is not a gift exchange fest! Participants will submit prompts, but no one is obligated to fill them. Folks should feel free to participate in whatever capacity they wish at whatever pace they’d like.

This fest runs from November 18th 2019 through January 5th 2020 on AO3. While we’ve established this timeline for the sake of some structure, participants can feel free to take the timeline as suggested instead of enforced.

Assignments Are Out!

If you have signed up for the Peaky Blinders Exchange: Round 2, then check your emails or your AO3 accounts, because assignments are out! Some things to keep in mind:

you only have to write ONE story of at least 500 words

you only have to write about ONE of the relationships your recipient asked for

the details that your recipient asked for are OPTIONAL--they may have asked for “Tommy & None” and only written “please write about Tommy buying a puppy” but you can still just write about Tommy doing something else (I dunno, riding a horse) and it will pass. that said, please do try to make something your recipient likes, especially if they have given you multiple prompts or a likes list

to fulfill an assignment, go to “My Assignments”, find your Peaky assignment, and click the Fulfill button. That will take you to a page where you can post your fic

if you have any questions at all about assignments, feel free to ask them! I’m happy to help! You can message here, send an ask, or email [email protected]

if you have any questions for your recipient, send them to me so that I can pass the question on anonymously and get an answer for you without spoiling the anon period

if you find yourself totally unable to write a story as the deadline approaches, don’t worry: when the deadline hits, everyone who hasn’t written gets defaulted (aka their assignments are removed), and I will find pinch hitters (aka substitute writers) to make sure that everyone gets at least 1 gift

#pbex #ITS HAPPENING #19 people signed up and you know what I say to that--hell yeah!#still alive still out here #hoping some crossover works come out of this cause some of these prompts are super interesting #feeling: excited!

How To Sign Up For Peaky Exchange: Season 5 Edition

the Peaky Blinders Fic Exchange signups are well underway & I’m so excited! It’s a fic exchange, so every participant will get about a month to write one gift fic for someone else. And then at the end, they’ll receive one gift (minimum 500 words). Some people have told me they want to sign up but they’re not really sure how. No problem! This post will show you how.

You’ll need an archiveofourown account. If you don’t have one, no problem; you can either get one through the queue or skip the queue with an invitation from me (more info here).

Once you’re logged into your account, THIS LINK should take you to a signup page.

Requests.

These are the relationships that you’re interested in receiving fic about. You’ll need at least 3 of these, at most 10. Here, I’ll do an Alfie/Tommy example.

In the Fandom spot, select either Crossover Fandom or Peaky Blinders (TV). Alfie/Tommy isn’t a crossover pair, so I select Peaky Blinders (TV).

In the Relationship spot, start typing in the name of one of your characters. A bunch of relationship options should pop up (this sometimes takes a second, lmk if it gives you grief).

Scroll down, find the pairing you want, click on it…

And bam! Done.

Now, you can just do this for all your requests and offers and call it a day. Or you can add a little detail to help the writer that is making your gift figure out what kind of a fic you’d like to receive. You’d type this out in the Description box.

Here’s an example of what some helpful details might look like:

Here’s another example of what some helpful details might look like:

Hi, thanks for writing for me! For Jessie/Ada, I’d like something a little spicy. I loved their chemistry in the bar scene. They’re so different, but they can understand each other and communicate with each other so well. Ada gets where Jessie’s coming from because she used to fight for the cause, and Jessie gets where Ada is coming from because they’re both women getting leadership roles in male-dominated circles. And plus they’re both gorgeous and I’m GAY!

Do Not Want: any content involving rape/sexual harrassment/violent misogyny, Tommy/Jessie, pregnancy fics

If I were writing for this person, I’d be happy to get these details because they help me understand what you like about the pairing and what I can focus on. Also, it’ll help me to know what things you absolutely never want to read about, the Do Not Wants as we call em in exchange lingo, which is great.

Here’s another example.

For Tommy/Reader, I’m not gonna lie, I. Am. Horny. I’m talking office sex, desk sex, sex against a wall. Any gender you want for the reader, I just want it to be messy and wild.

If you’re not into writing smut, what about something dramatic and confrontational near the end of Tommy and the Reader’s relationship? Just let them have a knock-down drag-out fight about something they both hold dear–politics, family–and I’ll grab my popcorn.

Or really anything about Tommy being a dad and how Reader fits into the family dynamic. We rarely get to see Charlie and I feel cheated.

Likes: drama, rough sex, aftercare, family conflict, domesticity

Do not want: gratuitous or graphic violence

Sometimes it’s nice to receive prompts or story ideas, which gives the writer places to go. If the writer only got the first prompt and nothing else, and if they didn’t really like writing smut, they might get a little discouraged. But this reader has helpfully given more than one option, which makes it way easier on the writer.

Offers

Offers are relationships you’d be willing to write about. Keep in mind that “&” indicates a platonic relationship (so Aberama Gold & Polly Gray would be about their friendship) and “/” indicates a romantic or sexual relationship (so Aberama Gold/Polly Gray would be something shippy or smutty).

The “type in a character and see available relationships in the dropdown” trick should work here too.

Just pick some ships for your offers, and that’s it!

If you think of a prompt you forgot, no worries. You can edit your signups until signups close on October 20, 2019. The countdown to signups closing is here.

If you don’t like writing out all your stuff separately, you can put all your prompts, likes, Do Not Wants, and other random info into one place, a Dear Author letter, and then copy the URL in, like so:

Some common places to store a Dear Author Letter are Tumblr, Google Docs, Livejournal, and Dreamwidth.

I hope this was helpful! Let me know if I missed anything. You can contact me with questions at ashling#7490 on Discord, [email protected], or of course this Tumblr. I’m happy to help.

More info: SIGNUP LINK HERE | PROFILE, RULES & FAQ HERE

Happy writing! <3 Ashling
