Wishing a Warm & Magical Holiday Season
Since Christmas is here
We’ll all have some fun
We’ll brighten your season
With the Heart, Moon, and Sun…
and Gwenevere and the Jewel Riders’ Christmas
With lots of snow
We’ll have a good time
and if you listen close
you’ll hear those sleigh bells chime… ( sorry it sounds corny,
but what else rhymes with time???)
It’s Christmas time with the Jewel Riders
It’s Christmas ( instead of Jewel Power), It’s Christmas…
It’s the giving season
And Christmas is here…
So lets join our friends,
For Good Tidings and Cheer!
And the Magic of
the Jewel Riders
It’s Christmas, It’s Christmas, It’s Christmas!
Princess Gwenevere and the Jewel Riders Christmas
Hi Jewel Fans! Did you all sing the song above to the tune of the the show’s theme song?
We hope you’re all having an amazing holiday season! For the holidays, we wanted to re-highlight something super fun on the Web Archive version of Stormy’s Avalon site: A Holiday Section! Back in 1999, the Jewel Riders fan community got together and gave each other fun holiday-themed fics and art! It’s an absolutely lovely idea, and we’re excited to share this forgotten fandom gem with all of you again this holiday season, eighteen (!!) years after these were first shared.
The fic pieces contained in the section are as follows:
- A Christmas Plan by Gryphon
- “Hey wolf rider where you been” said Gwen interupting his thoughts. “Fufilling a Christmas wish” Drake said with a smile
- Asacat’s “corn ball story at best” Christmas fic
- So I called upon Morgana and Marlana. “Please sit and eat with us, let us forget our differences for now.”
- Morning Glory’s Christmas story
- Remember that during the giving season, a gift of friendship has immeasurable power.
- A holiday play by Lisa
- They were about to go home, when a small cart caught their eyes. It was selling stars for the tree that were sparkling so much, they seemed to be glowing.
- Stormy’s holiday/romantic story
- Tonight there would be parties until midnight for the most magical night of the year, and at midnight itself the people would scatter back to their beds to wait for the saint who brought presents to the children.
Please read and enjoy them as the authors would have wanted!
In addition to the holiday goodies from the Avalon site, we also wanted to give the fandom a little gift of our own. We recently posted a wonderful interview with Jewel Riders Creative Director and general guru Greg Autore where he discusses the Season Two toy prototypes, and answers fan questions. We highly recommend to for a little holiday reading!
We also wanted to highlight this beautiful holiday gift from Instagram User @neilabbottofficial! Neil is an amazing artist and children’s book illustrator – please check out the link and enjoy his other work!
Thank you all for an absolutely magical 2017, and we look forward to seeing you all in 2018 and sharing the magic of the Jewel Riders together!
Friends Together, Friends Forever!
And a very Merry Christmas to you and yours,
~Chris & Ronnie
P.S. Enjoy this lovely rendition of “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” by Gwen herself, Jean Louisa Kelly!
