rietta89Okay, I'll admit it... I was hugely disappointed to discover the existence of the smut4smut exchange only to find out that it requires multiple fandoms--and I get the impression I'm not the only one.
So I was wondering if anyone else would be interested in posting their would-be sign-up to Dreamwidth, so we can all treat each other in a laid-back, deadline-free smut buffet?
Not sure whether that would take the form of posts on our own journals or maybe an NSFW thread on the BigglesEvents community so it's all in one place, but... anyone up for that, or have a better idea of how we could arrange it?
(This is my first attempt at making a poll so apologies for any glaring errors!)

Date: 2024-02-04 09:06 am (UTC)Would this be posting to an AO3 collection (I think you can also do those more casually than exchanges?) or just everyone posting normally to AO3/in the comments when each fic is done and linking it to the thread?
Sorry, I'm still fairly new to AO3 & DW and trying to figure things out!

Date: 2024-02-04 09:09 am (UTC)I'd definitely be willing to give organisation a go if required, but I'm not too great with technology or familiar with more casual fic events yet, so I'm sure you'll do a much better job! ❤️

Date: 2024-02-04 02:22 am (UTC)No idea how exactly a sign-up "form", if any, would work, assuming we'll pick from the huge range of freeforms in the

Obviously Fandom is not needed since we're talking Biggles fandom only, and the Tags/Prompts could be copy-pasted from the tagset for the smut4smut.
I went with ao3 username in case it's needed for someone to gift the fic, otherwise obviously it can just be left as a comment under the DW signup?
This is all just a thought and we can definitely run it some other way too! I am just here for the smut :3

Date: 2024-02-04 03:24 am (UTC)I guess another way to do it would be to actually make it a whole Smut4Biggles Exchange, taking advantage of the whole AO3 infrastructure for exchanges, with us nominating the freeforms we want to request. That might be either less work or more though, I have no idea.
Like you, I'm just here for the smut too. :D

Date: 2024-02-04 04:09 am (UTC)My organisational skills are non-existent, I'm afraid, and I've never run an exchange in my life.
(I'm still working up the courage towards running a community.)

Date: 2024-02-04 06:58 am (UTC)Considering the theme of this, having short PWP ficlets instead of getting tangled up in lengthy plots shouldn't worry anyone overly much. :D
Having said that, it could always be worded as a suggested maximum to avoid anyone feeling as if their creativity is being stifled, I guess.

Date: 2024-02-04 09:28 am (UTC)Going further back up the thread to SweetSorcery's first comment and your response, I was definitely thinking that we could use the smut4smut tagset for inspiration, but in something casual I also wouldn't want to tie people to that either as combing through a huge tagset can be overwhelming. So I like the flexibility of the DW thread for allowing people to participate however they find easiest/most fun 😁
Basically, like everyone else, I'm just here for the smut 🥰
