Hello all!

Been a little while since our last announcement, and in that time we've been working behind the curtain on what comes next.

What does come next, you ask?

Sapphic Solstice: Winter Edition!

That's right folks, we'll be hosting the Sapphic Solstice exchange again this year in time for the winter solstice (or summer solstice, if you live in the southern hemisphere) on December 21st!

We’ll have more information for you in a follow-up post, but what I can tell you now is that signups will open on September 22nd, about two weeks from the time of posting. We've still got more work to do behind the scenes to finish preparing for this exchange, but we're so excited to get to host the Sapphic Solstice again this year! We look forward to seeing you all again soon!

-Mod J

P.S. If you haven't heard yet, we've got a discord server! Feel free to head on over and join us! (https://discord.gg/GhBauX5a6m)

An Update

Apologies for the long silence, everyone. It's with a heavy heart and much regret that we're officially announcing that we won't be doing the Sapphic Solstice exchange again this year in time for the solstice in December, due in large part to difficulties we've continued to have with sending assignments out. We had hoped to get things fixed and rolling weeks ago, but unfortunately had no such luck. We hope that this doesn't discourage anyone from participating again if we run this event again for the summer solstice in 2022. Happy holidays yall.
