Summer of Giles is proud to be returning for another season of awesome Rupert Giles fan created works. We will be running through July only although if there is sufficient demand for more days I might extend into August . Sign-ups will open on May 16th with the usual rules of three days maximum per person and each day being open to two people. There will be the regular free for all day at the end as well of course. No matter where we are in the world, we are all affected by troubling times, so I hope this will be something of a distraction and an opportunity for everyone to share and keep in touch. Stay Safe. Stay Strong.

Edit: Special thanks to 51kas81 for this lovely graphic and all the icons, wallpapers, and banners she made for Summer of Giles 2020!
