It's a honor to be nominated...

[wabbitseason]

Yuletide nominations have started. There is also a tracking post for seeing what has been nominated/approved. I joined the throng this time around; I'm still on the fence on what writing I will do this winter. I nominated Melissa de la Cruz's Blue Bloods series, Fire Gown by Michael Swanwick, and the new Bletchley Circle series. I've seen the first

Eh... I already knew from on-set pictures that I hate what they've done to Hugh's hair, but the official image just drives home the point. He looks terrible.

*ponders Yuletide's fandoms list* If I gave it a shot, do you think there'd even be anyone else who would give--or want--fic that's within my parameters? (Only gen, only animeverse/movieverse, etc.) Having decided I'm not going to bother writing anything for Fandom Stocking, I might be willing to try Yuletide, but my preferences have not exactly been welcome even within my fandoms.

The real problem is most of your big fandoms (FMA, X-men) are way too big for Yuletide. The parameters are what they call "optional information", which might be difficult, especially if you asked for something like League of Extraordinary Gentleman movie. Not to discourage you, but it might not end well. And you can't limit the requests really -- they're matching on fandoms, not gen/het/etc.

Hmm. Yeah, it sounds like it wouldn't work well with me. *sigh*

I've thought about signing up for a few years in a row and decided every time that I'd probably be asked to write something I didn't want to.
