STEP ONE
Make a post to your DA journal. The post should contain your list of ten holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related ("I'd love a ______ icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD") to really big ("all I want for Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV."). The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.
If you wish for real life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you.
Also, make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your DA or link to this post so that the holiday joy will spread.
STEP TWO
Surf around your friends list (or friends' friends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. And now, here's the important part:
If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use -- do it.
You need not spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf -- to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not -- it's your call.
There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Give, and you might receive. and you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
The List!
1. Commissions! Create something for me--literature, visual art, whatever it is you do.
2. Any print from my wishlist, or a print of something in my favorites (I have like six things on my wish list, but that isn't ALL the art I love on here!).
3. Letters or cards in the mail. Anything hand-written, especially. If you need my address, note me.
4. It's a long shot, but any Deviant Gear. I'm a size large in unisex stuff. I was totally going to put it on my list and then I found out it's been gone for over a year--HOW DID I MISS THAT?! I don't care if things have been worn as long as they're in good condition (no holes, stains, etc.). And non-clothing items would also be appreciated.
5. Copies of any books written by people on DeviantART. I'll read just about anything. Anthologies with multiple writers would be the best, but I also love novels and such.
6. Hand-made books. I would LOVE it if someone would support BookBindingBirdie on etsy, whether you buy something for me or someone else. We went to college together, and I can vouch for the quality of her work. She makes awesome stuff, and she's great to work with if you want a commission.
7. Support my dear friend Christianonfire7 by purchasing one of her books! She's been through a lot this year, and supporting her work would be one of the very best things you could do.
8. Collaborators--I love writing with fellow deviants! Note me if you would like to work on a poem or story together.
9. A hardcover copy of any of the Harry Potter books prior to The Order of the Phoenix, with the original cover art. I've had mismatched copies for years, and I'd really love to have hardback copies of all seven books so they look pretty on my shelf. *U.S. edition*
10. Really awesome socks. I need more socks, and I like fun ones! Preferably crew style since it's cold. (In the summer I wear the no-show ones.) Dumbledore had the right idea.

Flash Fiction Month 2021
It's that time again. This year, I'm going to try to complete 31 days of flash fiction writing madness, and I'm taking on an additional challenge posted by @The-Inkling on the FFM Discord server: Every day, I will use a different (randomly selected) archetype from this list as a springboard to create my story's protagonist: https://screencraft.org/2018/07/09/99-archetypes-and-stock-characters-screenwriters-can-mold/ I'm gonna list them below, numbered, to make things easier for me; the linked article has descriptions of each archetype. As they're used, I will also add links to the relevant stories. I also recognize that some of these archetypes are often used in problematic ways (e.g., Blind Seer, Mentally or Socially Disabled). If I draw them, I'll see about doing something to subvert the tropes that come with them. Some of them are also explicitly *not* protagonists, usually, so it'll be fun to work with those if they come up. I have some ideas from going down the list, but
I'm BACK holy shit!
Y'all. Y'ALL. If anyone still watches this account. I know a lot of folks have moved on. I lost access for a while and finally got it back (huge, huge, thanks to dA's help desk). I'd been posting a bit on @mxtress. Head over there if you want to see some recent lit by me. I'll be figuring out what to do about having two accounts now, how to merge and such, and spring cleaning this account. ANYWAYS I HAVE SO MANY LIFE UPDATES SO BUCKLE UP. I got a divorce, which I have a lot of feelings about, but that was a few years ago and I'm on to bigger and better things so I don't wanna focus on it, except as general writing fodder on occasion. I came out--I'm nonbinary, and my pronouns are they/them, and I'm GAY and that probably doesn't surprise many people at all, it was kind of obvious in retrospect. HAPPY FREAKING PRIDE. I finished college, which I had just started when I last posted! I have a B.S. in Psychology, a B.A. in Modern Language & Culture, and a minor in Latin American/Latinx
Summer, Plans, and Inspiration
I can't believe that July is almost over.
I can't believe that it will be August in two days.
I can't believe that I'm going back to college in a couple weeks.
And most of all, I can't believe how happy I've been.
I've submitted two poems this week (one a couple of days ago, the other just a moment ago) and I'm working on more writing. Both poetry and prose, and I have a big, long-term project planned that I'll talk about pretty soon. Like, it's huge. It will probably take at least a couple of years. And it will keep me active on dA while I work on it, because I will be submitting a large quantity of things and I will want feedback.
A man said to the universe, Sir, I exist!
*awkwardly shuffles onto webpage*
Hiiii, guys and gals! I'm not dead.
It's been over a year since my last post, and I just wanted to reach out and see if anyone is still here. I miss my friends from this site, although I'm in touch with a couple of you via Facebook. If you want to talk, hit me up. And if you're reading this post, I want you to link me to one of your favorite things from the last year that you've submitted. Writing, photography, a drawing, a particularly poignant journal post, whatever. There's no way in hell I can catch up on absolutely everything, but I really want to see a little of everything I've missed.

I can write you a poem, just give me a prompt/things you would like/things you don't like in poetry and I will give it a go.
