Make a post (public, friends-locked, filtered... whatever you're comfortable with) to your LJ. The post should contain your list of ten holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related ("I'd love a Snape/Hermione icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD") to really big ("All I want for Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV"). The important thing is to make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.
If you wish for real life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) can get in touch with you. Your home address is not required!
Make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your LJ, or link to this post (it'll be public) so that the holiday joy will spread.
STEP TWO
Surf around your friends list (or friendsfriends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. And now, here's the important part...
If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. Sometimes one person's trash is another's treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use - or even know where you could get someone's dream purebred Basset Hound for free - do it.
You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf - to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not - it's your call. There are no guarantees with this project, and no strings attached. Just... wish, and it might come true. Give and you might receive. You'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
1. To be able to forgive my grandma somehow, whether or not she apologizes after reading the letter I wrote her.
2. Guinea pig stuff. Calenders, mugs, icons, pictures, stuffed animals, postcards, anything. I love it.
3. Roswell season one on DVD with the original music. The music they chose as replacements for season one was not good. I can barely watch anything but the Pilot. :(
4. Anything to do with Chlollie! Chloe Sullivan/Oliver Queen from Smallville. Icons, banners, wallpaper, fanfic. They are SO my OTP.
5. Green Arrow anything. Toys, comics, shirts, books. I play Oliver Queen/Green Arrow in an online RP and I have grown to love this character immensely.
6. Anything with the Northern Lights. Pictures, postcards, icons, wallpapers, screensavers. I'm a bit obsessed. If you've actually seen them, tell me about your experience. How did it make you feel?
7. Mixed CDs. Send me a mix of your favorite songs with an explanation of why you love these particular songs.
8. A donation to Defenders of Wildlife.
9. Gift cards to Farm and Fleet, Wal-Mart or Krogers.
10. Anything to do with storm-chasing. Links, books, information, anything. It all fascinates me.
