Yuletide reveals!

Yuletide has been weird for me this year, as I mentioned before. I haven't read a fraction of what I'd like to read, and it feels strange to only be settling down to do so after reveals. Ahh well! I do plan to read around a lot, but I admit I may be beelining for some authors I know I love!

In any case, I managed four stories this year - two for the main collection, and two drabbles. All of them are in small or YT-only fandoms, so I have been trying to keep my expectations in terms of comments, kudos and hits low. They seem fairly well received by their recipients, and that's what counts!

Belated squee!

I feel like I have not had a chance to be properly excited about Yuletide this year - I'm travelling, visiting a house full of toddlers where I don't have a room of my own to hide in, so I haven't had as much time to read around, and had to furtively read all (!!! So many!) my gifts furtively while everyone else was distracted. And they I got horribly ill, because toddlers. But I am feeling better now (though the toddlers are sick)! And I got So many!!! delightful stories that I need to share them :D And then I can get on with trying to do some other reading :)

Dear Yuletide Author!

Dear Amazing Yuletide Author:

Thanks, first of all, for writing! That is really the most important thing, and I will be delighted with whatever I wind up getting. I am scamming most of this from my last year’s letter (including this line!), so hopefully it will retain some amount of coherency.
