Yuletide reveals are live! I wrote three fics this year, thus officially ending my streak of writing one more fic each year than the year previous, ah well.

My main assigned fic was Nice Holystone Remains Unafraid To Throw Herself Into Explosive Situations, a Baccano! fic about Nice and Jacuzzi, and Eve Genoard, and Al Capone, and obviously a ( Read more... )

I haven't read the Baccano! fic yet but when I saw the title suspected it might be you. Barriers was an amazing fic.

Hexwood is a strange book with all these things thought on and discussed but not a lot shown. It's one of my favorites of the DWJ's books but it's not an easy one.

I AM THE MOST CUNNING AND ANONYMOUS OF ALL. *still laughing* Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!

Yeah, Hexwood is one of my favorites too, but I always understand why people don't like it; it is so bizarre! (And of course that is why I love it.)

Oh yes, it's one of my favorites but I feel like it needs a list of things said before reading it like-you'll need to read it again for it all to make sense, there are icky coercion things suggested but it's amazing.

I loved being able to write for it this year and your comment made me feel like I got it right. Thank you.

Ooh, I completely forgot to check Baccano! fics when I was looking through this year's Yuletide. Time to read.

(Goal for this year: Get better at writing, so I feel confident that I'm good enough to write for someone, rather than just throw fics at the internet, hoping that someone likes it.)

I hope you enjoy if you read! *laughing*

(You should totally do Yuletide! It is awesome and great practice, too. :D)

I look forward to reading your Baccano fic! I didn't get to most of the longer stories before reveal. But I liked your Hexwood story. It was plausible without being emo.

Thanks! That's an excellent thing to hear; I was worried about slipping over. (I don't think anyone except Diana Wynne Jones can pull off the sparkly diamond net of manpain . . .) I hope you enjoy the Baccano! fic if you get around to it!

I WATCHED BACCANO! THIS SPRING. And then I watched it again with Sares. I'm about due for a rewatch, actually, if only to get the Magic School Bus part of the theme stuck in my head again.

Not to put too fine a point on it, but you already gave me a fic shaped prize, and it was Nice Holystone Remains Unafraid To Throw Herself Into Explosive Situations :)

WELL I AM GLAD because it is one hundred and ten percent up your alley. (haha, one of my roommates has the theme song as their ringtone. CONSTANT CHAIRDANCING. It's a dilemma.)

WELL THEN YOU'RE WELCOME. :P
