For Yuletide this year I wrote This Is How You Lose The Time War fic. When I got the assignment I worried I'd made the same mistake I'd made a few years back when I got assigned to write Imperial Radch fic and then I realized how intricately plotted and detailed the original was and defaulted when I decided I wasn't capable of living up to the ( Read more... )

Okay, granted that as FFA notes, it's suspicious that I haven't commented on un mir zenen ale shvester yet, but on the other hand, isn't it WAY MORE SUSPICIOUS that

Happy Yuletide!

I was kinda bad at signing up for Yuletide this year but I still got a really great "Now You See Me" story that tries to explain why Isla Fisher's character Henley wasn't in the second movie. Highly, highly recommend.

I'm on a roll for Festivids this year. I already have three completed timelines that I feel pretty happy about- all three might get some fine tuning pending beta feedback but are in good shape and make me feel things when I watch them. and I have vidding mojo and wouldn't be surprised if I make more vids. Make all the vids!

Yuletide, meanwhile, is ( Read more... )

Dear Yuletide Author,

I'm sorry I don't have more of a letter. Check out my yuletide tag here: https://seekingferret.dreamwidth.org/tag/yuletide for past letters. Mostly what I ever want out of fic exchanges is to be surprised, and for my writer to write something that excites them, so we should be good. Thank you so much for writing for me!

For Yuletide this year, I wrote a story about AnnaBeth Nass from Hart of Dixie. It's not the best thing I've ever written by a longshot, but it's fun and I think the characters are in good voice, and I am pleased with it. Although I am particularly pleased that I had the idea to completely rewrite the last two scenes of the story on December 23rd ( Read more... )

There's been some talk on Yuletide chat about creating a specific tag for people writing Judaism-oriented stories for Yuletide (putative 'Jewletide'), akin to the tag/subchallenges for female-oriented stories or smutty stories or stories featuring characters of color. The idea of those tags was both to highlight fic fitting the theme of the tag, ( Read more... )

Dear Yuletide Writer,

Thank you for writing a story for me!

This past year fannishly for me has mostly been dominated by one project: Warning: Might Lead to Mixed Dancing, a multifandom Jewish dancing vid with over a hundred fandoms. A lot of the fandoms in the vid were fairly obscure, and a lot were new to me. So I had the sort of archetypal ( Read more... )
