A Very Sufjan Christmas is Back
/The following is a post from our sister site A Very Sufjan Christmas.
Follow us at @SufjanChristmas on Twitter or @SufjanChristmas on Instagram to enjoy daily song write-ups this December!
It’s finally November, and that can only mean one thing: Sufjan Season is officially upon us!
This winter, A Very Sufjan Christmas will be returning for another post each day from December first until Christmas Day. It’s going to be the same drill as last year; every post will be penned by a different author who will be discussing a different Sufjan Christmas song.
There will be sad posts, happy posts, nostalgic posts, long-winded posts, artful posts, and everything in between. Our contributors range from musicians, teachers, producers, and above all else, Sufjan fans. It brings me great honor to be able to share their Christmas spirit with you, and I sincerely hope that you enjoy reading these write-ups as much as I’ve enjoyed organizing them.
We’ve made the site super easy to keep up with. Each new write-up is uploaded directly to our home page (www.sufjanchristmas.com), so you can simply bookmark that URL (maybe even make it your homepage) and then visit it each day of December for a fantastic new write-up!
You can also follow us on Twitter at @SufjanChristmas, on Instagram at @SufjanChristmas, or even on reddit at /u/SufjanChristmas where we’ll be posting daily discussions of each article over at the /r/Sufjan subreddit.
If you’re just too excited to wait for December, you can always read back through last year’s posts here, or browse some of our supplemental reading material for additional Sufjan Christmassy goodness.
No matter what your holiday looks like, whether you’re spending it alone, with friends, family, loved ones, or pets, we consider ourselves lucky to be even a small part of it. Whether you’re going to be in church, flying back home, or fighting your way through a shopping mall, we hope that this site will provide a small respite from the Christmas Chaos this December. As tiring and hectic as this time of the year may be, we hope that this site will serve as a reminder of the good that the holidays can bring. We hope that this communal showing of Christmas spirit helps you make it to the end of the year, or at the very least, will give you something to read as you avoid weird family members or find yourself stuck in line at the mall.
Once again, I am astonished not only by people’s willingness to contribute to this site and share their stories, but the fact that other people take their time to read what’s posted here warms my heart and fuels my Christmas spirit. I think I speak for everyone on the team when I say that you readers mean the world to us, so thank you in advance for a fantastic holiday season. We’ll see you all in December when our first write-up goes live.
Until then, Peace, Love, and Christmas Trees.
Love, Taylor and the rest of the A Very Sufjan Christmas Staff.
