I am generally no good at all at identifying most of my friends' writing, unless it's really unique like RthStewart, or one or two of my old pals from XF. But something about one of the Wimsey stories made me think of Betsy. I guess I'll find out if I was right on Sunday...
Tara: That was funny if you've studied Taglarin mystic rites and... are a total dork... Riley: Then how come Xander didn't laugh?

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Amazingly good. One quible/question? If "perverts" were known on this world, why was such a convenient label never used to marginalize the ambassador? Of course the meta reason is that Le Guin did not include "perverts", but I wonder how the author of this fic would rationalize this? Might make an interesting coda...

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Any idea when tomorrow the YT author reveal goes live? (Why yes, I'm eager to post my year-in-fic summary.)
I ended up picking up a pinch hit this year the day before the posting deadline. I'm very happy with how the story turned out, and the recipient genuinely seemed to like it.

I think it's the same time as the story reveal, right? Which would be 9AM board time.

So, those of you who did yuletide for the first time this year, how did you like it?

Because books.
I loved it. I'll definitely do it again. And there are so many cool prompts left, in the New Year's Resolution list! (Abelard and Heloise!)

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I have a long list of Yuletide fic I love (including Anne's!), but I still think this one take the cake: Texts From Cephalopods, by volta_arovet.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Oh, that was hilarious!
