Blog Azeroth

Happy December! The icy tendrils of winter are stealing across Azeroth, and its peoples turn their faces towards the distant spring. Those of us on Earth are bundling up and settling in for a long winter's grindfest.

Once again, it's time for the 4th annual Blog Azeroth Furtive Father Winter blogger gift exchange! Bloggers are encouraged to sign up, create a post for their randomly-assigned gift recipient, and publish the gift they receive from their Furtive Father Winter! You don't need to be a BA member (although I highly recommend it), but you do need a place to publish gifts.

The process is simple:

1. Between now and December 15th, email me using my comment form, reply to this thread, or comment on my FFW post. I need your name, email address, and blog URL.
2. On December 16th, I will pair up participants and email everyone with the name, email address, and blog URL of their gift recipient.
3. Gift givers should then learn about their recipient and create a gift post using prose, poetry, music, graphic art, screenshots, or anything else that inspires them. There is no quantity requirement; just make sure it's something you might like to receive as a present!
4. Between December 20th and 31st, please deliver your gift, and publish what you receive on your blog. Be sure to credit the gift-giver so we can appreciate all the creativity!

Last year we had a really incredible turnout, and everyone turned in wonderful posts by the deadline. To keep it going, feel free to nab the graphic and promote this event on your own blog or twitter. The more the merrier!

For reference, here are the threads from 2009, 2010, and 2011!

Count me in, Akabeko! This was one of my favorite events last year. I enjoyed writing one and receiving one!

Noah, can you send me your email address? You can PM me here, DM me on twitter (@redcowrise) or use my blog's contact form linked above! Thanks!

I'll be doing it on my own website, rather than WoW Insider as originally planned.
