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!

Thanks.
For the Yuletide exchange, the first thing that happens is everyone who want to nominates three rare fandoms to be included in the eligible list of fandoms and up to 4 characters in each of these fandoms. A team of us then sort through these to check the fandoms meet the eligibility criteria, merge duplicates, check character names, etc. After this the list becomes public and people point out mistakes, lobby for fandoms to be included or removed, before signups happen.
It is a lot of fun, and tends to be a good way to find out about a lot of interesting books. :)

Sorry to hear that you have been ill - that is an incredible amount of work when you are not feeling well!

Thanks. There were a lot of people helping - I mostly ended up doing the easy bits, and then helping make the decisions when we got down to the borderline and problem cases.
