There are two Lost holiday exchanges taking sign ups right now. There's one on Tumblr (which is for more than just fic) and then there's one just for fic on AO3:
Secret Santa. Sign ups close October 27

I didn't know about the AO3 one! I'll sign up for both, although the AO3 sign up is confusing, but I will figure it out. I'm not sure how to indicate both that I'd like a fic with a ship but would also be happy with a gen fic. Basically, I feel like my ships are at this point so obscure that no one would offer them - except maybe J/S? I don't want to be that problematic participant that is a nightmare to try to match!

I've never been sure whether the fact that I'll try just about anyone once and love the more obscure characters makes me easy or hard to match. Saying that, my ship is Sayid/Desmond, and there's not a lot of that on AO3, so I don't know if many people would offer that.

As someone who's had to match folks up for fic exchanges, I think your wide-ranging interest in characters makes you easier to match.

There really ought to be more Des/Sayid! There was a bit of it back in LJ days but I don't think the writers moved their old fic to AO3. IDK if anyone else writes it at this point.

I was just thinking to myself on the 22nd about the length of time since it started! It seems crazy that it could even be that long ago!
