Who says a birthday celebration has to end the day it starts?

Welcome to Reflections: Fifty Days of Viggo, a celebration of Viggo Mortensen's half-century milestone, and of his community of fans!

The concept is a simple one. The celebration runs 50 days in total, from Oct. 20th (Viggo's birthday) to December 8th. Participants sign up for one or more days, and on their particular day(s), they make a Viggo-themed public post to their own LJ or the

sons_of_gondor community (before 11pm Mountain Time). And of course, VigBean-themed posts are very, very welcome.

Signups run from Oct. 1st to Oct. 19th, and you can find the signup post, FAQ and list of available dates here.
This is the sort of celebration that can be as elaborate or simple as each participant wants; the main idea is to have fun participating, not create more work. "Old" content of any kind is as welcome as new content, and everyone is invited to join in -- you don't have to be an artist or writer to throw a little glitter and blow out a couple candles. ^_~

We do hope you'll join us in celebrating Viggo's milestone and the talented pool of his fans!

Please, feel free to spread the word. The more, the merrier!

Many, many thanks to the amazing foxrafer, who came up with the idea in the first place, and was an integral part of planning this event. Thanks so much, madame! ♥
