#Romancelandia #HolidayFairies are BACK for the fifth straight year, via Andrea of @Shelflove:
"Give the gift of mutual aid in the romance community.
Submit YOUR wishlist NOW or sign up for to get notifications once wishlists are added:"
You can still help someone in need have a better holiday season: choose a wishlist and buy someone a little something.

So I got prime because they offered it and it means I, since I'm not paying shipping, I can do a couple more small items from the Romancelandia #HolidayFairies wishlists.(here's all the context you need: https://shelflovepodcast.com/holiday-fairies--and thank you if you choose to help)
So, since I'm already "in" with Prime, I decided to check what it's included to watch.
And it turns out that even when it's Prime content, I have to pay.
Shipping for Christmas in the U.S. is almost over; deadline using U.S.P.S. is tomorrow, 12/20. However, amazon is still going to be shipping until Friday.
If you want to help fellow Romancelandia denizens, Andgrea @Shelflove has the #HolidayFairies links here:
Via Andrea @Shelflove: "Buy a gift for a fellow romance novel reader who needs help this season. Find all the wishlists and more information.
Romancelandia Holiday Fairies in a mutual aid effort for the romance reader community."
It's just 10 days to Christmas, 15 to the end of the year. Be a holiday fairy and bring comfort and joy to someone in need, if you can.
(if all you can do is share or boost, please do that!)
From @Shelflove (on twitter):
"Lots of folks are having a rough year - please consider buying a gift for someone in the romance community who could use your help.
Your gift will help someone (or someones) feel hope and care in a world that can use more of both.
Please share!"
Just a note to remind everyone that the romance #HolidayFairies #MutualAid effort is still going. It's already a really hard winter in the Northern Hemisphere; anything you can do for folks (in this list or around you) in these waning days of 2022 will doubtless be deeply appreciated.

Go forth, do something good for someone today.

I have updated this post, as some of the goals have been reached, while other crowdfunding efforts are still ongoing (such as the Romance #HolidayFairies drive organized by Andrea @Shelflove)
Thank you to everyone who's joined any of these, or any other, #MutualAid efforts.
