Worldbuilding Exchange v2

Creator names have been revealed at the 2025 collection! Although the exchange has come to an end for the year, the collection will remain open for late treats. Of course you are also encouraged to continue browsing the collection and to leave comments and kudos! \o/

Don't forget to comment on your gifts! Participants must acknowledge their gifts before the end of next round's sign-ups in order to participate in the next round. Ideally, this will be via commenting to thank the creator for their efforts. However, contacting the mod to raise an issue, or using AO3's built in "Refuse Gift" functionality, will also be considered as acknowledgement of your gift. (Be aware that some email clients bunch notifications together. It's possible that if you rely on email notifications, you can miss one or more of your gifts. Please check your AO3 gifts page, just in case!)

Thank you to everyone who created fic, art, or meta for this exchange, and especially to the beta-readers and pinch hitters who helped so much in making this exchange happen. We look forward to running this exchange again in 2026. If you have any feedback, suggestions, or other thoughts, please let us know by commenting here or by email to worldbuildingex@gmail.com. Thanks so much for participating!
