Additional Info
An exchange for fanworks focused on worldbuilding. Fanfiction, fanart and in-universe meta are all welcome.

Participants can optionally specify if they're open to receiving podfic. You cannot sign up with only podfic; your sign-up must include fanfiction, fanart, and/or in-universe meta.

For the purposes of this exchange, "worldbuilding" will be defined as any exploration of how a fictional world works beyond the information presented in canon. This includes (but is not limited to) more detailed extrapolation of information presented in canon, filling in gaps in the canon backstory, attempts to reconcile apparent contradictions in canon information, exploring the perspectives on canon events of characters implied to exist but not considered within the canon, etc.

The gift you create can be an action-adventure story/shippy fanart/etc (provided your recipient hasn't expressed a desire for you to avoid such things), so long as there are also worldbuilding elements present in a significant way.

Please use this template to sign up if you're open to receiving works in different formats (podfic, vid, interactive fiction).
