A suggestion for later in the year...
I know it's way too early to be thinking about this, but I should be working on an essay and my mind keeps getting sidetracked, so maybe putting the idea out here will let me concentrate again.

How about we do a Christmas calendar this year? 24 people (or more...), 24 days, each person picks or gets assigned a day, and we all find a new morsel of Aubreyad goodness on our flist each day while waiting for Christmas, be it art, fic, or anything else fandomy.

If people are interested (and I'm sure in a fandom like ours there will easily be 24 volunteers), I'll do a proper sign-up post in November.

So, non-binding, who'd in theory be willing to participate?

*raises hand* (Yes, I know, big surprise.)

EDIT: 14 people, and that's half a year before the event. I think we'll be fine!

	I adore the idea! Smallwonder! Unfortunately I am not gifted in any way, so I would not know what to contribute. I am willing to shower everybody with praise and comments. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Yay! We'll all have to see how busy we are come December, but from the response now, half a year before the event, I think it'll be fine. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I'm sure I can scribble something... especially if the rest of you don't mind a Marine. Or two. Or more... (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I-I'm a total noob, and a lurker, and French (aagh! the ENEMY!) and I've only watched the movie and read the first book so far, but maybe I could do something? perhaps? ...plz? oh please don't brick me... (Reply to this) (Thread)

	esteven 2009-06-29 02:25 pm UTC (link)
	The fandom does have favourite people from France, so you are most welcome. I am certain your contribution will be most welcome. :D Btw, Welcome to you too! How about you leave lurkdom?;D Having seen the movie and having made it through the first book is a wonderful achievement. smiles brightly at you (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	Let me quote something I wrote in my journal when I came up with this: Oh, oh, you think we'd maybe perhaps even get a swisskun!vid? ...No pressure. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Are you going to get all remindery at some point? Because I ~~am not thinking about signing up for Yuletide and~~ need to be reminded that I already signed myself up for one thing I'm not sure I can do :) (Reply to this) (Thread)
