Due to lack of response, The Season of Giving contest has been canceled, however a similar, yet very different in many ways, contest has taken its place. Please check out the Winter Holidays contest, open to both authors and artists (banners or video). The contest runs from November 1, 2015 until March 1, 2016.
The entry must be about one of the following holiday themes: Thanksgiving, Winter Solstice, Hannakuh, Christmas, New Years, or Valentine’s Day.
The contest is open to any fandom, and contestants may send in multiple entries if they wish. Special awards are given for ingenuity with the use of fandoms/characters in the artwork or stories.
