This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.

I signed up for Yuletide this year because of peer pressure. But hey! I just uploaded my story.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Typo, if you're at all intrigued there's always the New Year's Resolutions option - ie checking out the list of fandoms/pairings that were requested and DIDN'T get written. There's always a heap of things, and oftentimes it can provide one with a nice storyprompt without having the headache of a deadline to meet.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Crappity. I have no title for my story. I'm sitting here with the upload page open and all filled out except for the title.

I mean, really, who came up with the idea of giving things titles anyway? Why can't we just say, "that story with the guy who does the thing?"

E-mail me the story. I'm sometimes good at titles. Profile addy works.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I picked something. It works. More importantly, it's done.

Thanks, though

You should have been there this weekend when I "decided" to name my story Happy Fun Smoochie Tiems for lack of anything better.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Yes!

Unfortunately, canon has pretty clear titling conventions, which I felt obligated to honor.

The title I went with is rather meh, but the summary is either awesomely lame or stupidly genius.
