IKR? I usually only manage a handful of days but still. It's such a positive thing.

Something to look forward to.

But what exactly is it?

Ah right - I noticed yesterday they don't explain it. Basically it's this:
Jan 1-15th there's a 'challenge' posted every day - they range from something like 'tell us why you decided to take part in snowflake' to a friending day, to rec posts, posts where you ask for little gifts (icons, reviews on old fics, whatever), talk about your favourite scenes in your fave show, etc. Here's least year's masterlist to give you an idea. When you take part you read other people's stuff and leave comments or gifts and it's generally just a very gentle, positive thing.

That sounds lovely. I may have to give it a try!

Why not. You don't have to post every day, it's all very relaxed.

Hi! I have a question about this. I see it’s hosted on Dreamwidth, but you create your posts in your own space. Do you then cross post to DW? Is there an lj community, too? Thanks for letting me pester you!

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Yep, you post in the comments on the relevant day in DW and link to wherever the main post is.

Cool--thanks! I might just dive in this year.

[amberdreams.livejournal.com]

Yay!

Yay! I always enjoy the snowflake challenge :)

Nice. I have to see if I can manage this. Might get me posting again.
