This is the collection post for links to "Dear Spacer" letters.

What is a Dear Spacer letter? It's a post you can make somewhere (your journal, Tumblr, Google docs, etc.) in which you elaborate on things you'd like to receive. General likes and dislikes in fic, general preferences in icons or vids, what you enjoy about a particular canon, specific prompt suggestions for your creator to work from, etc.

Dear Spacer letters are completely optional, but you're strongly encouraged to give your creator a starting point somewhere, either in a letter or in the description section of the sign-up form. (Or both, if you like!)

It's also optional for you as a creator to follow these extra details, but we really hope you'll avoid things identified by your recipients as triggers, squicks, or things they just don't enjoy receiving.

When writing a letter, please remember that this is a multimedia exchange. If you're requesting more than one medium, then please spare a thought for artists, podfic makers, meta writers, etc. and leave some prompts/preferences/info for them too. Also remember that if you request "other medium," your letter is where you can talk about what you hope to receive from that. Or anything you really don't want to receive.

You can see examples if you check out our previous year post. Once you've written your letter, you can drop a link (along with a list of requested fandoms, characters, and media) here.

Please feel free to spread the word and promote the exchange. The more the merrier!
