(Another post I had prepared earlier. This has totally been my Blue Peter week.)

Part the Third and last:

( 10 recs in Chalion, Pushing Daisies, Sorcerer to the Crown, The Star of Kazan, Timeless, The Truman Show, Venetia & While You Were Sleeping )

Part the Second! Yuletide truly is a bottomless marvel. I have never yet read through everything I wanted to in any year, or caught up on past years. (I should also note that I've been rather arbitrary in what I read for fandoms with several works, so these recs are not to say that the other works are not worth checking out!)

( 16 recs in 12th Century RPF, Anne of Green Gables, Bletchley Circle, The Goblin Emperor, Howl's Moving Castle, I Capture the Castle, Jeeves & Wooster, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, Last Tango in Halifax, Lion in Winter, The Mummy, Sarah Jane Adventures )

I didn't complete my assignment, so I have no main fic in the collection, but, once I'd put the poor malformed thing down and admitted defeat, I went back to some treats I'd had vague ideas for already:

I feel as if I've hardly read anything yet, but I think that's in part because I read a couple of longer stories, which cut down the totals for that brief window where it works out. But that promises a lot of fun catching up to do over the next few weeks (provided the planets and stars align etc. etc ( Read more... )

Surfacing briefly to say that Yuletide went live this morning and I got two gifts! They are both great and well worth reading and I am a happy bunny:

1. The world out there seems set to get worse and worse in every way at the moment. I feel bad that I have nothing to offer, but frivolous fannish things, but so it is ( Read more... )

1. Yuletide sign-ups are still open for anyone thinking of taking part. (I believe they close on the 9th, but check the link.)

2. For those of you in the UK who don't mind a bit of old telly, I checked the Drama channel, and guess what their next run of ancient TV on Saturdays is? It's the BBC's 1976-77 historical (Edwardian) drama The ( Read more... )

Dear Yuletide Writer ( Read more... )

The Yuletide tagset has gone live! It is full of shiny things, and I am going to have serious trouble narrowing down my requests.

It looks like a particularly good year for Golden Age detectives, I can spot at least three incarnations of Nicola Walker, and in the unexpected bonuses, someone has nommed Allo Allo. And Y Gwyll | Hinterland, which ( Read more... )
