I'm not a
yuletide participant, but I don't think I can explain how excited I am for it this year. Not only will I want a whole heap of reading material while I'm stuck in a cabin with my family, possibly without even a bedroom, but...
NO MORE TABLES.
No, seriously. Every year, I cry at how hard it is to read yuletide stories at a large font, because the menu bar eventually takes over the screen. So knowing that it's going to be on the
AO3 is just... never mind how much I love the archive itself, I'm just so excited.
Anyway, another really cool thing for this year? Because it's being hosted on an archive designed for more than just yuletide, all you writers who just want to pick up prompts? As long as you have an A03 account,
you are welcome to pick a prompt and write a story for it.
And if you're like me and just want to read and review stories? Put yourself in the
A03 invitation queue so that you can take advantage of all the awesome history and bookmarking features.
