Ho, ho, ho! Christmas is over! We've all loved reading all the holiday cheer you've plastered over tumblr.

Make sure you've sent your present and your thank you notes! Secret Santas want to make sure the elves didn't lose their presents!

Don't forget to add your AO3 fic to the Pitchmas 2024 collection!

[merry-pitchmas]

Let the gift giving commence!!

Trying something new this year. In addition to including #pitchmas2024 in your Tumblr tags, if you gifted a fic in AO3, put it in the collection aptly named Pitchmas2024

❤️💚❤️💚And a very Merry Pitchmas to all!! 💚❤️💚❤️

Ho Ho Ho, Ten Days To Go!

I hope everyone is having the merriest of times making their gifts! Don't forget to reach out to the person whose name you got to ask any questions about what they might like and I'm also here to attempt to answer any you might have as well.

A reminder that the start date for posting your gifts is December 24th and the deadline is December 31st. If you think you might be delayed, please let me know, and if you don't think you'll be able to deliver your gift at all, doubly let me know so I can have one of my Elves In Reserve whip something up. No one deserves to have coal in their stocking for Christmas!

Oh and don't forget to tag your post with Merry Pitchmas 2024, so I can find it later.

I hope the festive month is treating you well!

Let's go pitches!

Merry Pitchmas 2024

I know some of you are already putting up your holiday trees – yeah, you know who I’m talking to. Quit hiding in the pine needles. The season of giving is almost upon us, and you know what that means.

Welcome to the Ninth Annual Merry Pitchmas Gift Exchange!!

If you need a refresh on the rules, please check out this post from last year. Of course, the dates have changed to keep you on your toes.

Deadline to participate: November 30th, 4 pm CST US (10 pm UK). If you'd like to take part in the exchange this year, please reply to this post by then. You’ll get your draw shortly thereafter.

Here's the TL;DR for those of you who don't wanna check out the link:

TL;DR:

Reply to this post to take part. Reblogs will not be included.

November 30th (10 pm UK) is the cut off date to sign up.

Posting will begin on December 24th - not a day before! And you have to have your gift finished and posted NO LATER than December 31st.

You don’t need money to take part - just a dash of creativity and the drive to want to do something: manips, videos, fanfic, and comics are just a few examples of the things you can do!

All pairings are welcome, but I strongly encourage all participants to ANONYMOUSLY message the person they drew to ask questions about which they might prefer.

TURN ON YOUR ANONS. Your Secret Santa must have a way to contact you. If your anons aren’t no, you’ll be removed from the exchange. So please, even if you’re sure anon asks are already allowed, double check. If you’re not sure HOW to do that, Google is your friend.

If you change your name between now and the posting date, please send me a message to let me know. I will not be trying to track people down again this year.

Please don’t leave someone hanging. If you have no intention of doing anything and just want someone to do something for you, don’t reply. It’s not fair. (And I’m always looking for volunteers who will write for anyone who might get missed!)

Tag your posts with #merry pitchmas 2024.

HAVE FUN.

See you in a few, awesome nerds!

@wordsofmyreality has graciously offered to take over the sleigh-reins this year and wrangle the Pitchmas elves for me! So I'm going to hand the blog over to them for the season.

~Red 🎁🎶💕

[merry-pitchmas]

Will there be an exchange this year?

Unfortunately I don't think I'm going to be able to run one this year. If there's anyone that wants to take over for the season, shoot me a message and maybe we can sort something out!

[merry-pitchmas]

Let the gift giving commence!!

Sorry, I totes dropped the ball on getting an early start on the exchange this year but never fear!

The season of giving is almost upon us and you know what that means....

For a RECORD-BREAKING eighth year in a row, it's time for the Pitchmas Gift Exchange!!

Okay, listen up.

If you need a refresh on the rule, please check out this post from last year, but keep in mind the cut of dates will have changed. Because I've left this so late (again, my bad, sorry) I'm only going to let this float around until the end of the day on December 1st. If you'd like to take part in the exchange this year, please reply to this post by then.

TURN ON YOUR ANONS. I’ve gotten to the point where if your ask box is not set to allow anon questions and your Secret Santa cannot contact you, I will no longer be trying to get in touch - I’ll just remove you from the exchange. So please, even if you’re sure anon asks are already allowed, double check. If you’re not sure HOW to do that, google is your friend.

🎵🎧🎄Merry Pitchmas everyone!!🎄🎧🎵

The time for gift giving can now commence!! 🎁 🎅 I'd like to wish everyone a very Merry Happy Whatever. ☃️ Thanks to everyone who participated this year - it wasn't as many as in previous years, but it's nice to see the fans still coming together after all this time. ❤️

[merry-pitchmas]

2/2) add, feel free to add that as well. Looking forward to writing for you ^_^

Hello! I'm not sure if you meant to send this to me or the person you're actually secret Santa for? If it's the latter, you sent this to the wrong person. 😊

[merry-pitchmas]

Alright, everyone should have their names now! Last reminder to turn on your anon asks - if you don't know how, ask google! And if your change your user name, just let me know!

Now, let's go make some Pitchmas cheer! 💚❤️🎄
