I've signed up for

fandom_stocking again this year. Sign-ups are open through Dec 15. Come join us, it's fun. You post a wish list and in return you fill as many wishes from other participants as your time allows. I usually try to address all Forever Knight requests.

The sign-up post is here.

Timelines and guidelines are summarised here.

Fandom Stocking 2016/2017 had only 3 people requesting FOREVER KNIGHT, including me. While it's sad to see the fandom shrinking, I managed to fulfill all FK requests this year. Although it took me until this week to do so. Hence the belated overview. I wrote:

Sign-ups for

fandom_stocking are open through December, 14! I've decided to join again, although I'm aware that I'll probably end up with distributing story promises again which I won't be able to fulfill due to lack of time. Yet, it's fun to receive all the holiday greetings and fannish stuff. And maybe there are prompts which strike instant inspiration so that I might come up with a story after all.

The sign-up post is here.

I've also updated my Dear Author Letter by adding Lucifer, for which I've recently discovered a passion.

fkficfest is still looking for players so that we can have the exchange style game. Sign-ups are open through June 25.

While waiting for the game to start, I've used the time to complete 2 Fandom Stocking gifts:

I've completed 2 more requests for Fandom Stocking:

Stay tuned.

I'm thrilled that we've got 8 requests for Forever Knight this year at

fandom_stocking.

And quite a variety of factions: I've seen UF, IB, NN, gen and more.

Stuffing is scheduled through January 5. I'll try to put something into each of these stockings, but I cannot promise that I'll be able to meet the deadline. Might end up with a placeholder and the promise of later delivery in some cases.

fandom_stocking sign-ups are open through December 13. I've posted my wishlist yesterday.

The timeline is as follows:

Sign Ups: November 24-December 13
Stuffing: December 1, 2014 - January 5,2015
Reveals: January 6, 2015

In that context I've also updated my Dear Author Letter a little.
