theofficetroll he/him Posted October 18, 2017 Posted October 18, 2017 (edited) I run the annual Brandon Sanderson fan gift swap, Secret Sazed. I know it's a little early to be thinking about holiday gift giving, but since most of the people who participate do physical crafts or art, I wanted to get this out early this year. We offer both digital and physical giving and just about anything creative is welcome. If you'd like to participate, use the following form. If you're uncertain on what you want to give, indicate that on the form. You can go back and edit it later :-) http://bit.ly/SecretSazed2017 Edited October 18, 2017 by theofficetroll 1
Darkness Ascendant he/him Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 I don't remember this ever happening before huh.
A Budgie she/her Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 I am doing this. It'll have to be digital, but that's okay.
Darkness Ascendant he/him Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 9 minutes ago, A Budgie said: I am doing this. It'll have to be digital, but that's okay. I'll be trying to...I'll probably end up scanning something.
Mestiv he/him Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 This indeed seems to be a new thing. Someone did Secret Santa on the Shard a year or two ago and it was quite fun I hope this will work as well. @theofficetroll are you advertising it anywhere else?
theofficetroll he/him Posted October 19, 2017 Author Posted October 19, 2017 Third year. Don't think I posted it to the 17th Shard before, I started it for the Tumblr community :-) I posted it on Tumblr and a couple of Facebook groups I'm a member of. Feel free to share it, I'm comfortable with doing a larger community this year. 2
A Budgie she/her Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 So when will we be recieving the info for who we're giving stuff to and what they want? I have limited access to a scanner, so it would be nice if I could recieve the info for what my person might like nice and early (because I'm assuming that's what all the 'your favourite Cosmere character/world' stuff was for). 1
theofficetroll he/him Posted October 20, 2017 Author Posted October 20, 2017 Providing I have a reasonable number of participants, I will send out the first batch of assignments in the first week of November, giving over a month to create gifts. The second set will be sent after that depending on number of participants and as necessary following that. Last batch will be sent the first week of December, likely.
She Who Cannot Be Named she/her Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Is it possible to gift a physical thing even though I'm in Europe? *has a few ideas in mind already* I have just no idea how long the mail needs to be delivered overseas.
theofficetroll he/him Posted October 20, 2017 Author Posted October 20, 2017 You can absolutely send physical gifts, but I can't guarantee you will receive a physical gift. If there's someone else in your region willing to send physical gifts, I will try to match you up, but it's been a problem in past years.
She Who Cannot Be Named she/her Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 Oh, that's no problem at all if it does not work out with another physical gift. All right, count me in ;-)
