Number of times I've revised my Yuletide wish list letter in the last twenty-four hours: 4

Yes, you should request a 4th fandom. And frak! I keep forgetting to add actual content to my Yuletide letter. *headdesk* Thanks for the reminder.

(I love your icon!)

*poke* Have you written your letter now? heh

Actually, I have. Finally. You know, like decades later. :P

If you get a chance, I'd really like for you to read it and tell me if you would find it all helpful if you were my Yuletide writer. 'Cause if not, I think I may need to revise it. I'm not good at these things. :(

Not knowing those fandoms is a bit of a hindrance for me, but I think you've given enough direction for a good start for your writer. If there's some story idea that you'd really love to see for any of those, you could throw that in as well, but otherwise I wouldn't worry about it.

The topic does make me curious, though. Do people generally prefer more specific details or just a character and general tone for a fic? 'Cause I would've like a few more specific ideas for the request I was matched on, but I'm wondering if the person who got my request is cursing how detailed I was in what I asked for...

I have a question and I'll ask you rather than comb comments. This is what friends are for. :-)

Usually, there is a default deadline. Like a deadline for one to drop out without penalty and being blackballed from Yuletide forever for changing your mind. Do you know if there is a default deadline this year?

Okay if you don't, I can drop this question by the Yuletide comm later this week.

Thank you and yes, request the fourth fandom!

ETA: I think I found it here. December 10th? I hope that's updated info. I'll ask on the site.

Did you get an answer to your question?

Finally decided on a fourth fandom, so I revised both my entry and LJ post again. Okay. NO MORE REVISING. (The yelling is directed at me, not you.)
