So, it is party time again, folks!

[wiseheart]

Each year this time, we launch my virtual birthday party, which starts on October 1 and ends on October 9 at midnight, sharp. The goals of the party are to post as many comments and collapse as many threads as possible, on as many new pages as we can. It is always great fun, as you can see if you check out the similar entries of the last few years.

This year, I'll also throw the real party at mid-time - and post the recipes of all the food that will be there for you, so that you can all participate if you want to. Virtual food has no calories.

Fandom-related discussions are as welcome as the ones about coffee or chocolate (just to name a few favourites from previous years), and, of course, pictures and recipes of birthday cakes. ;)

So, drop by, tell your story, post your pics or silly poems, ask questions you always wanted to ask and have a good time!

Soledad, in excited expectation




Oh, and by the way, to provide birthday gifts hobbit-style, I've got a revived story and a Kansas 2 update for you.

Enjoy!

Yes - it would be much simpler that way! It is rather sad when people don't reply to queries, especially as we do try to get everyone to follow the lj/dw announcements; but every year it seems that people don't.

I think so many people have migrated from LJ that they simply don't log in more than once in a blue moon to see announcements. I noticed some people on Tumblr complaining that that hadn't been updated recently -- I didn't even realise Yuletide had an official Tumblr.

Well, semi-official. One of the tagmods started it and links to the announcements... but there is sometimes a delay, as she is in another different timezone...

Ah -- I wonder if she forgot to link the nominations opening? That was the complaint I caught. (Not that I generally use Tumblr at all, someone from Fanlore kept sending people there...)

I can see it there (no idea how to link to a specific post) - I wonder if it was delay or just something people missed, I have no idea how people find stuff on tumblr (it is far too confusing for me)

Tumblr always makes me feel 100 years old. Give me bulletin boards...
