About

Disclaimer: The authors published herein make no claims on the ownership of the characters of Gossip Girl, which is the rightful intellectual property of Cecily von Ziegesar, Josh Schwartz & Stephanie Savage, Warner Bros.

[info]ggfic_exchange is a community created to run and host Gossip Girl fic exchanges. We currently are unaffiliated with any other fic exchanges or communities but if you are interested in affiliating with us, please email the mods at ggficexchange at gmail dot com .

The current fabulous layout was made by [info]girlyevil for us. The basic promo banners were made by the awesome [info]meg_dallen. All other graphics made by the technically-challenged [info]supergirlscafe, including the headers used in this userinfo and the Valentine's Day promo banner. Please, look but do not take!

What, exactly, do we do?

[info]ggfic_exchange is where participants swap fanfiction set in the Gossip Girl fandom. They sign up and state what kind of fic they would like to receive and then are assigned somebody else’s request to write. The fics are all emailed to the community and then posted. You cannot sign up for the exchange if you are not able to write a request in return!

To get a better idea of the expectations in an exchange, read A Guide to Participating In Fic Exchanges by [info]r_becca .

General Community Rules


  1. All members and fic participants must have a livejournal account.

  2. All members must be respectful of Gossip Girl and each other. Constructive criticism is o.k., flaming is not.

  3. No member may request/write a fic that contains content more mature than is age-level appropriate. The level of “appropriateness” is not determined by me, it is determined by lj. Check out those rules or ask me for questions.


General Rules on Fic Submissions


  1. Must be beta-read.

  2. Must be at least 1000+ words.

  3. Must fulfill the fic guidelines requested.

  4. Must be emailed to the community email as an email attachment in the Microsoft Word or Notepad format by the deadline (unless an extension is required-see next section).

  5. Must be posted first in [info]ggfic_exchange before being posted anywhere else (including your personal livejournal).


General Rules on Issues


  1. If you are assigned a fic request that you do not believe you can fulfill, email the mods ASAP to be switched.

  2. If you need a deadline extension, email the mods ASAP to be granted one.

  3. If you have an unbeta’ed fic, email the mods ASAP to get advice/beta help.

  4. If you need to drop out of the round, email the mods SUPER ASAP so they can find a back-up writer. If you let them know reasonably before the deadline, you may still participate in future rounds. If you simply become incommunicado and never send an email to let the mods know you are dropping out, you could possibly become banned from future exchanges.

  5. When emailing the mods, please do not comment on their personal livejournal or send a message to their personal email. Please use the moderator-run community email, ggficexchange at gmail dot com, and keep in mind that if an extension/request switch/unbeta’ed fic is not fixed/granted, it may simply be beyond the power of the mods. Sorry.


General Rules on Awards Session (And other Post-Submission Issues)


  1. All fics in the exchange, submitted by the proper deadline, are eligible to be nominated for the awards section after the exchange has been completed.

  2. No one may nominate themselves or vote for themselves.

  3. All comments with nominations and votes will be screened and kept secret.

  4. Review/Thank the author who fulfilled your fic request. They wrote it for you and will appreciate the thanks.
