Boosting Jinglemas 2022

Greetings!

It's almost the end of 2022. As such, it's time for the annual Jingelmas!

Kalashy, muh boi, wutz Jinglemas?

JInglemas is a fic secret santa program. Just contact Shakespearicles by November 24 (so do it soon) stating three things:

1. The sort of story you're hoping to get -- tags, characters, premise

2. The sort of story you are willing to write for others -- genres, also things you won't do

3. It should ideally be holiday themed. Hearthswarming, winter, snow, fireplaces, cocoa, cookies, that sort of cozy thing.

4. DO NOT CONTACT YOUR RECIPIENT! THAT IS THE WHOLE REASON THIS IS A SECRET SANTA THING! 10,000 flea infested monkeys upon you and your kin should you sin so!

Please keep it SFW.

FAQ -

1. So what would a Jinglemas joining message look like?

Hello, Shakespearicles. I am <NAME>and I want to participate in Jinglemas 2022, I am willing to write drama, comedy, and EQG. I would prefer to write a slice of life fic in the EQG continuity. As for what I would like to get, I would like a story centered around Spike feeling lonely at Hearthwarming for being a lone dragon, but at the end, everypony coming to to show him how special he is to them. Thank you very much.

2. What if I want something a bit more extreme?

It's an SFW event, so save your raunchiness for the numerous contests and his sin celebrations. Please nothing more than T rating, and specify what you're both willing to receive and make in your message.

3. Are OC's allowed?

Allowed, yes, but not ideal. Canon characters are easier to find matches for as this is entirely voluntary, as such, it's going to be much easier to find a writer for a Rarity and Spike comedy adventure to harvest The Great Wintergreen than it will be to find a writer for an Autumn Blaze and Breezies piece. It's just how this works. If you want something done with your OC's, please give at least 200 words describing your OC and their personality and how they interact with others so the recipient can best understand them.

4. Anything else?

The due date to join is November 24. The stories will be assigned out on November 25. The word cap is ideally under 5K, but 8.5K is the hard limit.

5. Really, what else?

Real the original post by Our Lord And Hero, Shakes before you send off that first message to him.

And when you post the story, include

Written for <NAME> for Jinglemas 2022.

in the long description.

Good luck!
