Dear Yuletide Author Letter

Oct 27, 2012 15:04

Hi Yuletide Author!

Thanks for writing for me. I really hope you have a good time writing whatever you write!

Here are a few insights into what makes me happy.

General stuff I like: missing scenes, pre-canon, post-canon, dialogue, behind the scenes stuff (like thoughts) that we don't always see in scene, comedy, drama, strong character voices, character exploration, snark, action and world-building.

General stuff I don't like: schmoopy relationships (the kind that are out of character and change the characters into relationship stereotypes), incest, PWP

Specifics!

Shades of Grey - Jasper Fforde
If not Eddie and Jane (though not necessarily Eddie/Jane, I just love their banter and weird dynamic, so Eddie or Jane is fine too!), then I would love to see some worldbuilding stuff. If you're a Ffordian fan, then I have faith in you to pull off something suitably odd and colourful. Yes, that was intentional. Sorry.

Archer
Lana. Lana. Lana. Hey Lana. Lana. LAAANAAAAAAAAAAAA! WHAT? Danger zone. What the hell ever you want to write, Author. Make it snarky, witty, irreverent, completely inappropriate and in character and you will have made my Yuletide. Use whatever characters you want. Any situation you want. If it's the same tone as the show, I will love it.

Phineas & Ferb
There's 104 days of summer vacation then school comes along just to end it. So the annual problem for our generation is finding a good way to speeeeeeend it! This cartoon is one of my favourite TV shows. Phineas, Ferb, Candace, the Fireside Girls, Doofenschmirtz, Perry, Major Monogram and Carl, Mom and Dad...I don't care who the fic is about. If you can make this hit the tone of the series, you've made me one very happy Yuletide recipient.

Montmaray Journals - Michelle Cooper
Post-canon would be fabulous, but missing scenes would be great too. Or or or or...I don't know! The things I enjoy about this series are (in no particular order): Montmaray itself, the characters, the time period. Ooh what about Montmaray more recently? Or the family as adults? Or what went on outside of Sophie's point of view?

Thank you, Author! I look forward to thanking you for your gift!
