Yuletide 2021 is nearly here!

Nominations for Yuletide 2021 start on September 20. Please check out [community profile] yuletide_admin for the schedule, updates, and specifically, ongoing discussions about RPF fandoms and Worldbuilding. Meanwhile, the New Year's Resolution 2021 collection will close for posting around October 23-25, when assignments go out.


What is the New Year's Resolutions 2021 collection?
The New Year's Resolutions challenge/activity is part of Yuletide. Each year after a round of Yuletide ends, a new NYR collection is set up. This collection is for new works based on past Yuletide prompts.

Anyone can look at past Yuletide prompts and submit a work - you don't need to have participated in Yuletide before. Gifts must respect their recipients' Do-Not-Wants. However, if you're writing a NYR story because you are required to before you can sign up to Yuletide again, there are additional rules.

NB: When posting a work to the New Year's Resolutions 2021 collection, the collection name may not come up in the drop-down menu, even though 'nyr2021' will work when entered into the field. You can ensure the collection is incorporated automatically by going to the collection and clicking 'Post to Collection' at top right.

See also the FAQ from last Yuletide and the nyr stories tag on this journal.

Prompts
2020's prompts are available on AO3, in a downloadable text file, and in an app. Prompts from pinch hitters who weren't signed up can be found here on the admin DW community, and are also included in the app. For older prompts, try looking at the dashboards of previous NYR collections, such as New Year's Resolutions 2020.

Someday My Fic Will Come
This is an additional mini-challenge, begun by swan_tower. If you have requested the same thing in at least 3 Yuletides, and you haven't been given it yet, record your prompt at the DW post or LJ post - or look for a long-lingering prompt that you can fulfil. (Yes, these are the 2020 posts - they're still valid.)
