Dude, I threw in a title, probably need to swell it by about another 1k, and my summary is pants.
Giles: Stop that, you two. Riley: He started it... Xander: He called me a bad name! I think
it was bad; it might have been Latin.

This might be the most impressive piece of art anyone's ever done for a story of mine: [link]
Isn't that lovely?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
That's gorgeous. And very evocative of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe as well as your OC and story.
--didn't we have a TT thread title tribute to Narnia? How did that go, again?

"The Slayer, the Witch, and their Wardrobes", weren't it?

Awww, the story I was given for Yuletide is darling! Addams Family/Gashlycrumb Tinies cross-over! [link]
And and and, I am getting lots of nice comments on the story I wrote, which makes me more excited than I expected it would. People like it! Yay!

Looks like the big hit of Yuletide so far is the Secret Diaries of Saint Augustine: [link]
Heh. It is very funny, I'll grant.
My personal favorite so far is this Nation story (Pratchett): [link]

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It probably helps that the St. Augustine story is right at the top of the fandom list, alphabetically.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Oh, that looks hilarious.

That reminds me - now that I have time to start browsing through the archive, I need to come up with a plan of attack.
I'm VERY happy with the two stories I received (In Darkness, Of Elements and Existence). Both are for Sapphire and Steel, which I had mentally tagged as "least likely to receive" on my requests, and both are delightfully different. One's a nice, creepy little story that feels very in keeping with the show, and the other is a pitch-perfect crossover with Discworld.
So far, only my recipient has commented on my fic, but I'm not too surprised given a) fandom and b) length. That said, she felt compelled to leave not just one, but three gushing comments, so I'm very much counting this as a solid win.
All in all, a very good Yuletide, and I look forward to diving into the archive later today after I spent all day yesterday Being Productive.

Well, I think I've found a way to beat the YT anonymity. (Accidentally, I promise!) Find a writer's profile on AO3. Then go to the Full List of Fandoms. Any fandom they've written for, including this year's Yuletide, will be listed.
... woops.
