Sign-ups open!
Sign-ups are now open!
68 historical people were nominated. You may find them in the list below or in the tagset.
( Here's the list! )
Thank you again to everyone who provided a link for their nomination!
Sign-ups are now open! They will close roughly this time next week.
Please check the FAQ (either on Dreamwidth or on Archiveofourown) if you are unsure what you're allowed to request. Matching will be done as AND for the requests.
Please don't try to game the system. If you do so, I will ask you to change your requests. If you do not do so by the time sign-ups close, I will either delete your sign-up or change your requests.

All requests will be visible here. If you link a letter, please have it unlocked before the end of the sign-up period. If your letter is hosted on tumblr, please don't rename your blog before the exchange ends as that would break the link to your letter. The same goes for any other platform this might be applicable to.
You may link to your letter in the comments of this post in addition to linking to it in your sign-up.

Future plans
First, I was wondering if there would be interest in running this exchange twice a year, with reveals in July and January?
Second, there was no answer to the one pinch-hit for this exchange. Is it because it wasn't seen? If that's the case, I would like to know how else to handle pinch-hits in future so they are seen.
