Pretty icons. =) And yay for your having finished your Yuletide fic and found a good path for the other story.

[oxoniensis]

Happy birthday!

And yes, it's always great when a story starts to come together, especially when it's one that's been eluding me for ages.

[meadowlion]

Thank you!

I know just what you mean.

I find it interesting that yuletide is up to 286 stories, but only 232 different fandoms. So 37 stories were posted since you did, but they only added three unique fandoms! According to the match list there are potentially 526 fandoms to be written.

[oxoniensis]

Ah, no, that's my (unintentionally) deceptive posting - the number of different fandoms I mention in my post is the number visible just before I made this lj post, but I actually posted my story about 8 hours ago. If you click on the link in that line, you'll see a screencap of the page with my name on it, and there it says 207 fandoms represented.

I just keep hoping I'll see a fandom I actually *know* mentioned on the page! *g*

Ah, it's nice sitting back and watching everyone else panic! *eg*

[isiscolo]

Aha, I get it now! And yeah, I haven't seen any fandoms I know, either.

I would be in the same complacent place (haha, I uploaded #50!) but I just snagged a pinch hit, so I must commence to panic.

[oxoniensis]

I wonder if you got the pinch hit I was after most! There was one fantastic one, but I picked it up at the same time as the email saying it was filled.

Good luck with it, anyway!

haha, I uploaded #50!

I ignored all the smug 'I've finished' posts until I could make my own. *g*

[timian]

I snagged #9, 10 and 11. Thanks much!

[oxoniensis]

You're welcome - I love it when friends snag my icons!

[oxoniensis]

I accidently hit post too soon, as I meant to say I hope your recovery's going well!

[timian]

Aw, thanks so much! I'm doing pretty well.

[oxoniensis]

Glad you like them!

[oxoniensis]

You always make me happy when I post icons!

As for Yuletide, it's a bit scary, waiting for my assignment, and sometimes it can be a real challenge trying to write what the recipient wants, but I love it. It's my favourite challenge to write for - I think it's really good for my writing, makes me stretch myself. You should do it next year, really. And just think, you could ask for Emmerdale fic! *g*

[oxoniensis]

Talking of bravery, I seem to think you're the one who's managed to post a story every day for the last 25 days! No way would I even consider that, not with my patchy writing. Bravo! *applauds*
