Origami gift giving: slots open – Fanfic Writer Appreciation Day (21 Aug)

Hello! I know it’s just May, but from my experience with the origami advent last year + cos of uni stuff, I learned it was indeed a good idea to announce and open a project like this early. So, I’m doing it again. Thanks to @fantalfand@samyistrying for your support and helping me sort all this out, and to @andithieland@makeitp1nk for your encouragement

What?

I’ll be folding one origami book each for fanfic writers who you’d like to show appreciation to! Customised based on their likes, personalities, and even things/vibes related to their fics. The books will also be filled with handwritten quotes from some of their works. You can submit (a) fic rec(s) and/or message that you have for the writer, and I’ll post it along with the previously mentioned gifts. Examples of how the compilation into one post was done for the advent last year are here.

Who?

I’d love to spread appreciation for as many writers as possible through my projects, so I’ll be opening giftee entries to those who weren’t giftees in the origami advent. The list of the advent’s giftees is here! Just to clarify, those who were gifters in last year’s advent can either still be gifter again or be nominated as giftees for this new project And of course, advent giftees can still book slots to be gifters for this new project.

I’ll be capping the recipients at 10 people.

Bonus ✨

If you buy me a ko-fi, I will be eternally grateful and make origami fanart + rec for a work of your choosing (either yours or someone else’s)! The art will include models that I’ll fold inspired by particular scenes and sometimes also vibes of the fic. Basically art based on the fic but in origami form! Example of art I did for the fic With Great Yawns and Stretchings by sugar_screw is here. More examples of my origami recs are here. If you like, it can also be based on anything about the person in general ☺️ (likes/vibes/personality)

I’ll be capping this at 5 people.

When?

For the 10 books, I’ll be posting a gift a day from 12-21 August. For the ko-fi bonus, depending on when you message me to discuss and finalise the details, I’ll work on it from the finalisation onwards and finish it ASAP. I aim to post all of those within August itself.

I’m opening all 15 slots from now itself, so drop me a message on tumblr or discord (crazybutgood#1379) if you’re interested! Feel free to hmu if you have any questions. Thank you ❤️
