Yuletide!

[brigdh]

Yuletide sign-ups are open! In case you somehow missed all of fandom talking about it. Important note: if you have been disqualified from Yuletide before, you can still sign up! That's right, all bans have been erased. So come and play!

Sign-ups are open until Thursday the 12th at 9pm EST. I haven't signed up myself yet, as I'm still looking at my requests and offers and deciding what I want. I usually sign up to write for every fandom I've ever heard of, but this year I've decided to narrow down and only offer things I feel passionate about. Also, True Blood is in Yuletide! I feel like it's probably too big, but it's too late to change now, and so I am excited.

Other neat links: Dark_agenda, a Dreamwidth community for the 'Diversity in Yuletide 2009' challenge. You can read more at the community, but the basic idea is: request and offer fandoms with chromatic (aka PoC) creators and characters.

I always love sorting through that giant list of fandoms and rediscovering old favorites and realizing there's somebody else out there who also loves Boox X or Show Y. I go back and forth between offering everything I've ever heard of or only the fandoms I'm completely comfortable with, and usually end up somewhere in the middle.

The fandom list really is so much fun. I love going through it, too, particularly since it sometimes leads me to discovering awesome new fandoms.
