Because it was a great hit last year at the Albus and Minerva board, I thought it would be great to have a Secret Santa here too. So i got in touch with Childminerva (who is the one organizing it there) and she was cool with helping me.
So, if you want to join: here are the rules!
Post before November 30 - or you will not be included
Exchange your gift before December 22nd
If you want to join the Secret Santa, fill out this tiny questionnaire, so you can help out the Santa who is giving you something special:
NAME YOU WANT ON YOUR GIFT: YOUR FAVORITE SHIP: YOUR FAVORITE CHARACTER: FAVORITE NON-HARRY POTTER BOOK: FAVORITE NON-HARRY POTTER COUPLE: FAVORITE TV SHOW: FAVORITE CHRISTMAS CAROL: FAVORITE FOOD: FAVORITE QUOTE (rated PG please): FAVORITE MOVIE: FAVORITE HP MOVIE: NAME TWO OF YOUR OWN FANFICTION STORIES: GIVE THE LINKS TO THE TWO STORIES ABOVE:
Any tidbit you want to add as a wish:
What is Secret Santa?
Holiday cheer, you give a present to somebody else who has put their name on the list. You will receive a Personal Message that has the name of the person you'll be creating for.
What do i create as a gift?
That is entirely up to you. If you are an artist, make a picture of their favorite couple. If you are a writer, write something special: a one-shot, a drabble, a poem, a fanfic, or even a lemon. If you want to offer your services as a beta: do that. As long as it is something you think that will make them happy: go ahead!
How do i post my gift?
Post your gift before the 22nd in the special thread that is made for this purpose, so your sitemember can pick it up there.
When will i receive a name?
All names must be entered before November 30th. You will get a PM December 1st or 2nd.
If you have any questions, please send me a message and do not use this thread for them, please!
