Okay. So who wrote what for Yuletide?
I was under the impression that I was your big comfy blanky.

Fan Fiction II: Great story! Where's the sequel?
This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
I wrote the Veronica Mars story, A Little Bit More. Poor story; it got kind of cheated in favor of the other ficathon story I had due, and so there's not so much a, you know, plot. Or point. But I thought I got the voice all right.

The one thing that's sad about Yuletide is that there are a lot of great stories I'm not likely to read, because I'm not familiar enough with the fandom to get what the story's about.
I wrote a Fables story, Rewrites and Revisions. And Katie, my situation's a bit reversed from yours in that another story of mine got shafted in favor of Yuletide.

I wrote Wonderfalls, which people seemed to like, but unfortunately my recipient's on vacation. In Antigua, lucky girl. Curses!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I wrote the Threshold story "No Battle Can Be Lost", and I am too lazy to link. As per usual, I was one of the obscurer obscure fandoms. (But I got one rec.)

Emily should definitely link -- she got a lot of comments for that story! (I did my teeny tiny bit as a beta, which only needed very few comments, so I may count as a little prejudiced.)

Which Wonderfalls piece, Emily?

I'm always hesitant about the whole real-name/pen-name connection, but... well, what the heck. It's not the most popular Wonderfalls piece, but it made a decent showing. Of course, I keep noticing things I wish I'd thought of at the time -- 24 being a very young age to be running a bunch of dojos -- but for the most part I'm happy with it. And Theo and meara both kicked it into shape and helped me bat around titles -- Trashy Loon was a popular contender for a minute there, I think. Anyway: Apologetic Camel was mine. I was both intimidated and squeeish when it turned out Holli was my recipient, and then she went to Antigua before the stories were posted. Oh well.
Oh, and since I'm posting this, I'd like to also highly recommend the Wire in the Blood story that was written for me: Sublimation. Really good.
