Roundup: Candy Hearts Exchange

[firecat]

candyheartsex was a multifandom exchange with a low minimum to encourage treating. It temporarily replaced Chocolate Box Exchange, which did not run this year. Over 550 people signed up and wrote over 950 works in 480 fandoms.

I wrote a Carnival Row story.

I was spoiled rotten and received three gifts: Ancient Greek Myth (Hades/Charon), Lucifer TV (Lucifer/Marcus), and a Sandman/Torchwood crossover (Death of the Endless & Jack Harkness).

For me, it makes the world a little better knowing that, out there somewhere, there's some Death-Jack Harkness fic. Such an excellent gift.

So true!

I had good fun writing that crossover for you, so I'm glad you enjoyed it.
