So, one last post before I move to Dreamwidth/blog. I'm mostly doing this because I started Yuletide on this journal, and I felt I should do my reveal here.

First of all, thank you to henshin and zenfu for my lovely Yuletide gift fics! I loved them both.

I wrote five fics in five fandoms for five recipients. They were Never Give Up (Mei-chan no Shitsuji), which was my assignment, and the gift fics Closer Ties (Kamen Rider Den-O), Loki and the Cup of Jonar (Norse Mythology), For All The Flaws (Earth: Final Conflict), and A Most Content Husband (Gokusen). I enjoyed writing every single one of them. I put a few thoughts about these fics here on the new blog.

ETA: I volunteered to beta a fic at the last minute on the #yuletide IRC channel, and it turned out pretty darn good (not that it needed a whole lot of help). It's Set (Me&You) = The Result of (Try (Get Things Right)), a TRON fic featuring Flynn/Alan.

I requested 4 and offered 10. Of the 10, I can guarantee I will not be writing 2, one because it was the fandom where I was the only requester, and the second had no requests.

Of the fandoms, I've written in 7/10 in this journal, 6/10 are Japanese-language. Of the fandoms I offered, 8 were primarily tv, 1 was book, 1 was a manga. 3 of them were for series introduced via CFUD.

I have the greatest odds of getting 2 Japanese series. I have the least odds of getting the book series.

My prediction: I will get the book series. I have only one character offered-to-write, but I know one of the DYW letters has that character requested, so.

*Goes off to reread book*

I wrote three fics for Yuletide this year, and so I thought I'd write about them, and link them.

( A little note about a previous post )

( Step in the Right Direction )

( In The Stars, A Beauty )

( Drifts Dreaming )

Thanks to a web thing called "Write or Die", I'm getting a lot more of NaNo in. Which is good, as I'm completely winging novel #1's plot now.

( probably more of interest of me than anybody else )

I got my Yuletide assignment. Squee! And I had an exact character match on the fandom I got. (Watch, I'll *also* get a story in this fandom. Either that, or tptigger will die of laughter.) I'm a little bit scared, though, because I want to make the story so good for this writer. There's a possibility on an unrequested fandom, but I want to check on certain things before I try writing in it.

If you signed up for Yuletide, be sure to keep an eye on the two Yuletide comms.

I have this feeling I'm forgetting something possibly important. This isn't it, but I'm going to ramble on anyway.

First of all, there was a fic I want to find. It's a Doctor Who fic. It had to do with Lucy Saxon, Martha, and it's implied that Lucy is pregnant with her husband's baby and wants to get rid of it. I know it's somewhere, on Teaspoon, I think, but I can't find it.

I found it. It's called "The Women", by nostalgia.


( And the fic things for the rest of the year )

And the people who wrote my fics were obsessivemuch ("Brilliant Ideas") and timjr ("Outfits Worse Than Form-Fitting Spandex"), who I have to find when I'm not about to run errands. Found them!

As for my own, I wrote seven, contained under the cut.
