          	You can either publish it on your account, dedicate it to your Secret Santa, and shoot them a message or nention, if you like. Or, send it to me via e-mail (that I'll give through a PM) and I'll publish it here!

@SecretSanta2018 Its been six months and I'm still...kind of waiting for that story I was promised. I don't know if its been published or if I really should stop waiting for something to pop up. Could you maybe tell me? If whoever got me published anything or if they aren't working on it anymore?  Thanks.

@SecretSanta2018 It's fine. I just wanted to make sure that it didn't get cancelled and I hadn't seen something about it.  I tend to end up oblivious like that.

@SecretSanta2018 Hello! I just wanted to ask about what was happening with the assignments for the Secret Santa this year. I hope you don't mind.

Another year, another reminder that I need to invest in a physical calendar because I never get over how quickly the year passes!
          
           Halloween is coming up! 
          Which means so are the Secret Santa sign ups!
          
          Now, the reason I've should up a little earlier than usual is for a two reasons.
          
          First of all, I'm starting sign ups earlier this year!
          An earlier start means more time for you to write. I think, two weeks more, if I calculated correctly. I'm still working on logistics at the moment (a rough draft is posted on the profile), but do expect this all to start some time next week. I’m shooting for this coming Sunday or Monday.
          
          Second reason is letting you guys know that I’m gonna handle the event the same as how it was handled last year. Adrian did wonderfully last year and I really like the system she used because it’s way more efficient than what I use to do. 
          So, now’s your time to let me know if you had any grievances, or forever hold your peace. 
          
          I believe that’s it, so I’ll see y’all soon!

❉ ❄ ✻ Chocobo Knights!! ❉ ❄ ✻  
          
          There are still two people in the exchange who have not yet received a gift from their Secret Santa. It's time to call in the Chocobo Knights to see if we can right this Christmas wrong! 
          If you said in your exchange application form that you wanted to be a Chocobo Knight and would be willing to write an extra story in the case that someone didn't get theirs, then you will be entered into the Chocobo Knight Lottery. The Chocobo Knight Lottery is a random selection process I will be using to decide who will be writing a make up gift. If you are willing to write one and would rather just volunteer, that's fine too. 
          Names will be selected in the very near future, so be on the lookout for my message if you signed on as a Chocobo Knight. 
          
          Thanks guys!

❉ ❄ ✻ The Secret Santa exchange is in full swing and so far everything is going great! If you are participating,  please remember to send me a completed version of your story so I can put it in the Christmas Collection on the 31st at the end of the exchange so everyone can see and enjoy it here, too! 
          If you haven't gotten your gift yet, don't panic. Remember the exchange is going until the 31st, so there are still a few days left for your Stanta to work on it. If you are a writer and you need an extension, now would be the time to ask for it. Thanks, and Merry Christmas guys! ❉ ❄ ✻

❉ ❄ ✻ Last day to sign up for Secret Santa! There are 21 participants so far, so it would be really great if we could get at least one more person to join so it's even! If you've been on the fence about joining, this is your last chance! We'd love for you to join us! ❉ ❄ ✻
