I am hosting Winterfaire 2012 (http://ysabetwordsmith.livejournal.com/2598329.html). Creators, come post a booth of whatever goods or services you offer that might make good holiday gifts. Everyone, here's a place for you to shop within the crowdfunding community and give gifts that can't be found on commercial shelves. Participation reveals new verses in a perk poem, currently "Hrafn's Nest (http://ysabetwordsmith.livejournal.com/2602241.html)" (Hart's Farm).

The next Poetry Fishbowl (http://ysabetwordsmith.livejournal.com/730515.html) will be on Tuesday, December 4 with a theme of "games and toys." Please drop by my blog then to give me prompts and watch for poetry to appear.

There will be a Holiday Poetry Sale in my blog, featuring poems from the Poetry Fishbowl and other projects. It will run from December 10-14. Poems from December 2011-November 2012 will be half price.

I am not planning to post a Crowdfunding Creative Jam in December, because the holiday season is so packed for most people. I do plan to bring it back in January. If you're interested in managing one of these, please let me know. You can pick the theme; we've gone through most of the previously suggested ones. If you have suggestions for new themes, please comment with those.

We are preparing for the 2013 Rose & Bay Awards (http://crowdfunding.livejournal.com/480002.html). kajones_writing has volunteered to manage two categories and I'm covering two myself. We could really use someone else to handle the Fiction and Other Project categories; preferably categories should be overseen by someone not eligible for them. Nominations will open on January 1, 2013.

Have you done anything with crowdfunding during the past year? Now is the time to check that your project, or projects you support, are eligible for the Rose & Bay Awards. See "5 Steps to Crowdfunding Success (http://penultimateproductions.weebly.com/5-steps-to-crowdfunding-success.html)" for a quick confirmation of what counts as crowdfunding. If you need to fill a gap, such as adding a tip jar, there is still time this month!

December is a busy month for me. I'm posting this year's Advent Story; there's a half price sale running on everything; it's double credits month; and I'm having a prompts session from the 20th of December.

Addergoole: Year 9 (http://addergoole.com/9/) is running strong and just coming into it's second quarter. This 52-chapter story follows the new class of students at Addergoole through an entire year.

December 15th, I shall hold a Giraffe Call on a not-quite-determined tech-related theme. Current idea: "The future may be now, but what if it wasn't?"

If you do write on the 'future' theme, I have a video I may link you to.
