As promised, here’s the official call for this year’s MM Fandom Secret Santa!
It’s simple, you join in by contacting me, then I give you the name of another fellow fan, you work on your gift, then you post it in their inbox and finally, on Christmas Day, the gift is posted here on Tumblr.
These are the deadlines you have to keep in mind. Please read carefully!
One: Join In → by November 26th
Send me an ask or a fanmail telling me you want in.
Submissions will be accepted only contacting me personally. Reblogs are appreciated but no not count as submissions.
I’ll answer right back and put together a list.
Remember: joining in means that you are promising you will give another fan your own personal MM gift. This is very important, so please consider it before you decide to take part.
Two: Receive Your Name → by the end of November
You will receive a private message from me with the name of the person assigned to you.
Be sure to have your ask option enabled or to give me a way to contact me if you’re not on Tumblr and want to take part.
What can you give as a present?
You like to write? Then a Christmas themed fic or drabble will be perfect. You love to make graphics or gifsets? Then that’s it. You make videos? Then a short one would be fantastic. But it can also be a list of recs of your favourite MM fics or fanvideos. Do you have a list of songs that never fail to make you think about MM, about specific moments of their story? Then create a fanmix, and that’s your gift.
Whatever you choose to give it has to be something you have to do a little work on in order to create the perfect gift.
If you don’t know the person in question, you will have all the time to check on their blog and see what they like! Try to make the gift as personal as you can, but above all, get involved, let your ideas run wild and put your heart into it :)
Four: All The Gifts Are Sent → December 23rd
This is a very important deadline, so do your best to be ready for this day. On this day, you will submit your gift to your assigned person, revealing that it’s for the MM Secret Santa Project.
Do not publish your gift on your own: the gift must be sent to the receiver and only to them. The idea is that for a whole day the gift will be theirs and theirs alone.
Five: All The Gifts Are Published → December 25th
On Christmas day the recipients will make the submission public and share the MM love!
Official tag is MM Secret Santa 2015, and I’ll use it for every new post about the project, so track it to keep up to date.
If you have doubts/questions, please drop me a line, but please know that more information about the later steps will follow. I’m always ready to help sort special situations, so if you have any concerns/problems throughout the process just contact me and we’ll work together to find a solution.
That said, reblog the post, spread the word and take part!
