How it works
1. People sign up on Dreamwidth with a wishlist of prompts and things they'd like to receive. Requests can include any media, including transformative works like fic, art, icons, vids, podfic, and also picspams and meta, translation advice, related music links, lollipops, dried fish snacks, powerful ancient artefacts, anything.
2. Mods post each person's requests in a separate post on the Guardian Wishlist dreamwidth comm. Comments are screened (hidden).
3. Anyone can write, draw, record, or otherwise create gifts for any sign-up. You can post gifts directly in comments (which are screened until reveals) or to the AO3 collection. Gift posting continues right up until reveals on 17 September. There are no minimums for gifts.
