Fannish Friday: exchanges

If you were going to design an exchange of any kind (or even another kind of fandom-participation event), what would it be?

I have so many ideas that I will never do anything about because I don't have the time! The dream is a classic film fic exchange--movies made between the dawn of cinema and, like, 1965 or something. I think that would be so cool!

I'd also like to do an exchange for fic about MDZS/CQL women because there's never enough of that! I'd like to do a Robin McKinley-exclusive exchange, but there definitely wouldn't be enough participants for that! There might already be an OT3 exchange out there for all OT3s ever, but if there isn't, there should be! Or a kdrama exchange! Or one for books about girlhood (everything from L.M. Montgomery to Judy Blume!) or (if it doesn't already exist) a female friendship/enemyship (basically anything not-romantic) exchange.

The possibilities are endless, even though the time, unfortunately, is not!

I'd love to hear about the kinds of fandom events you'd organize if you had the time/energy or if the audience for it existed!

(no subject)

I know this is such a weird and random thing to post about, but I figure if anyone knows the answer, it's one of y'all.

I have this very clear and distinct memory of reading about a polar explorer who always felt like there was someone beside him, even when he was alone. Like, he was hallucinating someone else's presence as a result of the trauma of being in the polar region for months on end.

Does anybody know what this is in reference to? Did I dream it myself?
