Happy Yuletide!emmademaraisDecember 26 2017, 16:17:52 UTC
First, a huge thank you to all the mods and behind the scenes volunteers who make Yuletide happen for all of us! THANK YOU! You all give me hope in a world that's otherwise low on kindness and thoughtful behavior.
Quick question: Where are all the recs this year? I know there's recs on AO3 itself, but they're just searchable, not really browseable as they come in like they'd be on LJ, DW or even (ugh) Tumblr. I found I discovered more fandoms when I could read the blurbs about them as they came in. On AO3 I'd pretty much have to search for what I want and that's hard when you have no idea what's cool to discover out there! Thanks!

Hm. There's the https://yuletide-recs.livejournal.com community on LJ. I think there may also be one on DW. From what I've seen, a lot of reccing is happening on Discord (https://discord.gg/49NXABD) - there's a recs channel for the purpose, and it's lively and useful! There's also an AO3 collection for recs: https://archiveofourown.org/collections/yuletide_recs
I agree that the custom of posting recs on this journal appears to be dying... It is not forbidden! Just apparently less trendy.
