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.

Jilli, which parks will you be going to?

Er, lots of them? D'World for sure, and Epcot. Kristin and Drew are our tourguides for this adventure. I just want to go on the Haunted Mansion and the Pirates rides as many times as I can.

Ah, with Drew and Kristin as guides I'm sure you'll be steered in the right direction. But I have a few bits of advice just in case:

(1) The 360° cinema movies in Epcot's Canadian and Chinese sections are beautiful and a great way to catch your breath from all the walking.
(2) France sometimes has living statues and Morocco and China sometimes have acrobats doing shows in the open spaces out front. I think you'd enjoy those.
(3) You can book a dinner reservation in Cinderella's Castle from pretty close to the Magic Kingdom front gate. I'd recommend doing so as it's easily the best food in that park and a fun place to dine with friends.
(4) Do not go on the 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea ride. You'll have to wait in the longest line in the least interesting surroundings to be cramped into a claustraphobic, smelly sub ride where you'll barely be able to see out the windows. Far better to take an extra jaunt through the nearby Haunted Mansion.
(5) Behold the Gates of Hell. Avoid them at all costs.

Oh hey, is there any sort of thing I would need to do with regard to Yuletide once author names are revealed?

Nope! I usually just post my Yuletide stories to my LJ and website, see who wrote for me (and sometimes thank them again), and take a look to see who wrote the stories I liked.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

One thing I'll be doing is giving my story a wee tweak before posting elsewhere. Given that I was one of those who came in just under the wire and only had time for a rough edit pass, a few infelicitous phrasings managed to creep in.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Anne is me on one of my stories, which I am also considering making a series, which may be ill-advised.

I'm really looking forward to seeing which Buffistas wrote which stories. Would people mind posting links (or at least fandom/title) here once the reveal is done?

I second that request!

Oh, I'm going to post a link to mine. I don't know how many of you are even vaguely familiar with the fandom, tho'.

Matt, I have no intention of going on It's A Small World. Even if my pseudo-sibling swears that going on it absolves you of all your sins for ten years. I haven't sinned that much.
