Yuletide Madness!

The Yuletide mods have opened up the full list of prompts (note: apparently some prompts may not be displaying; this is a glitch in the new system, but most are there) for Yuletide Madness, the last day before the fest when anything goes. :) Anyone can write a fic for any prompt, of any length -- whether or not you participated in Yuletide this or any other year. These are due to be uploaded before the archive opens (I believe that it's midnight, US Eastern Time, give or take a little bit, when that usually happens). Fics under 1000 words should be posted in the Yuletide Madness section and over a thousand should be uploaded to the regular Yuletide section.

*bounces* I've been poking through the giant list o' prompts -- I've already found a half dozen I really want to write! (And just on the unlikely off chance that YOU came here from the prompt list, my Yuletide letter is here!)

Also, the winter holiday roundup of gen stories at stargategenrec is quite long; thank you to everyone who suggested stories, and I hope you can find something to read!

So Yuletide Madness fics are supposed to be short, right ...

*uploads* \o/ (Note: It is not short.)

*scampers off to find more prompts to write*

Aside from that - and waiting for the archive to go live - I've run a few errands and now I'm curled up with Internet and fic and Stephen King's Under the Dome waiting for me later.

I just read Cakewalk over at sga_santa (gen, 4200 wds, anon.) and absolutely loved it to bits -- just the kind of John & Rodney friendship and h/c that I've been craving. Another thing that made me dearly love this fic is that, as I've complained in the past, there is so very little gen fic about gay/bi/etc. characters that's not a prelude to a pairing; this fic is a delightful exception. I also thoroughly loved another of the sga_santa fics that I read last night, Are You Naked Under That Thing?, another John & Rodney friendship gen one (despite what the title implies *g*), in this case a post-Atlantis fic with the wonderful implication of all the characters growing old together that I so adore.
