ATLA Winter Solstice Exchange 2020 is a fanwork gift exchange for Avatar: The Last Airbender, in the style of Yuletide and similar AO3 exchanges. You may offer and request fanfic, fanart, fanvids, and/or podfic.

Nominations (for the characters and relationships that gifts will be centered around) are now open! Check out the AO3 profile or Dreamwidth to see details and rules. To nominate characters and relationships, visit the tag set, which will be open for nominations through Sunday, November 1, 11:59 p.m. Eastern time.

Some notes on the scope of this exchange: characters who appear in other Avatar works may be nominated if they are directly related to characters from the TV series Avatar: The Last Airbender (canon). For example, Izumi is eligible to be nominated, but Asami is not. Creations should feature any tangential characters in relation to the canon characters, and participants should not need to be familiar with other media, such as The Legend of Korra or the comics (though you may take inspiration from them) to understand your work.

Rules

Gifts:
All types of gifts/assignments must be rated with one of the AO3 ratings (G, T, M, or E). Works must be newly created for this exchange, and not dependent on other works to be enjoyed.
Fanfiction gifts must be at least 1000 words. Beta readers are strongly encouraged.
Fanart should be a clean, complete work, not just a sketch. Traditional art is accepted, but should be scanned clearly. Art should include an image description (ID) for accessibility; let the mods know if you need help writing one.
Fanvids must be at least 60 seconds long.
Podfic must be of a fic that is at least 1000 words in length.
Treats must have a rating, but they can be sketches or below the minimum length requirements.
All creators are encouraged to carefully consider implications of their work with regard to race, culture, sexuality, gender (including trans and gender non-conforming folks), disability, healthy relationships, intersectionality, etc. Fic writers are encouraged to do research and consult beta readers and sensitivity readers; artists are encouraged to do research on whitewashing and invite others to preview their work. At the same time, the burden is not on marginalized groups. Please consult the mods if you have any questions or need assistance.

Content:
In order to keep this exchange a fun, safe space, works containing incest or romantic/sexual relationships between adults and minors are not allowed. Scenes of rape/noncon/dubcon (i.e., requiring the archive warning) are also not allowed, but works that discuss sexual trauma (without graphic flashbacks) are permitted. Consensual sexual content is allowed, but if that is something you are not comfortable viewing and/or creating, please be sure to indicate that in your sign-up. The relevant ratings, archive warnings, and tags MUST be used, and your recipient's Do Not Want list must be respected.

Conduct:
Respect the other participants. Do not bash or insult their work, their ships, their requests, etc.
Please see the section "Defaulting and Pinch Hits" of the FAQ for rules around difficulty completing assignments.
Contact the mods at atlawintersolstice on tumblr if you have any issues or questions.
The moderator reserves the right to update these rules as necessary
