Optional details, while in no way required, are very welcome.
Some creators might be happier to work with relatively more open-ended requests, while others may find it easier to work with requests that already contain a few optional prompts or a letter.
As sign-ups begin to near the end, please consider adding optional details to your-sign up if you have yet to do so. They can be as short or long as you wish, and contain whatever information you think might be useful to your creator. It might be especially useful if the optional details tie into the exchange's theme in some way.
If you'd like to add optional details but are unsure of what to say, below are just a few examples of what could be included -
What you like about horror as a genre in general.
What you especially like about the Horror Type tags you've selected for the request. For suggested tropes, please see the community's definitions of the Horror Types.
What aspects of the fandom and/or relationships requested you think could lend themselves well to horror.
Some specific ideas for optional prompts. If you do provide optional prompts related to certain Horror Types, please try your best to make sure that they align with the community's definitions of the Horror Types.
That being said, please do keep in mind that optional details cannot be enforced and are in no way guaranteed to be included in your gift. Only DNWs listed in the AO3 sign-up box are enforceable.
