September means Santa...
...or at least TS Secret Santa Sign-Ups! ;-)
Yeah, it's that time of year again, when I open my fannish email account for the first time since January and answer pattrose11's question as to whether we're doing TSSS this year: yes. :-) (Seriously, it's a beloved sign of the season - schools re-open, it's sometimes not-hot enough to go outside without regretting it, & Patt lets me know that this is still a gig she's interested in. September is here!)
I've created the 2024 'The Sentinel' Secret Santa - Parent Collection & 2024 'The Sentinel Secret Santa' - Gift Exchange collections at AO3, which might or not have issues, but feel free to comment here if I have screwed anything up (again).
Nothing particularly new this year, though I am proud of myself for remembering to update the "email me this info" template to add the questions that I always have to ask at least one someone each year in order to keep names/emails straight. :-) Because yes, YOU STILL HAVE TO SEND AN EMAIL IN ADDITION TO DOING THE SUPER-EASY AO3 SIGNUP. Because I'm just crazy like that. (If in the future, I'm unable to run this and someone else wants to, I'd recommend that for their sanity, they just try to make use of the AO3 gift exchange features rather than do what I do. :-))
I haven't begun to think about the Drabble Days, but I'll advise here when I do.
Finally, I'll sum up some still-relevant things out of my last "Sunday after Labor Day" post:
- I'm still ridiculously busy & "don't forsee having it in me to be as in the midst of everything as I used to be," sorry - I also am still awful about seeing/responding to email in a timely fashion, sorry some more,
- think about whether you want to commit to participating in the Exchange (I expect sign-ups to run through the end of September-ish, but we can play it by ear), but if not, there are always the Drabble Days & Extravaganza,
- maybe share the news about the sign-ups with your fannish friends who won't see this here, and
- I hope you are all doing well & I look forward to hearing from you as we get this party started! ;-)
