I finally signed up for Yuletide after rewriting my requests about a million times. I keep feeling like I'm being an awfully demanding recipient because all of my requests are kind of long. But when I'm writing for someone, I really appreciate it if my recipient gives me a bunch of details about what sort of stories they enjoy, so I decided to go for more detail rather than less. And I will probably write a Yuletide letter, but trying to work out that was what really had slowed me down -- so I decided to go ahead and sign up, and finish the letter in time for the recipient matching. I'm so busy right now that it would completely suck to lose track of time and realize that I'd missed the signup window.

In conclusion: Yay, Yuletide! And eek, Yuletide! And I really, really need to finish my sga_santa story ... *chews nails*

Cool! What are your fandoms? Or is that a secret?

I only discovered the awesomeness of the yuletide archive very recently, and since spent some time happily browsing the archive. Not enough fic to go on a binge, but it's so nice to find fic for shows where I'd thought none existed. Yuletide is such a great concept.

It's not a secret (and I guess will be even less of one when I get my "Dear Writer..." letter written *g*). The fandoms I'm requesting are three book fandoms ("The Foundling" by Georgette Heyer, the Vorkosigan series by Lois McMaster Bujold, and the Death Gate series by Margaret Weis & Tracy Hickman) and one TV fandom, Wiseguy.

Yuletide is awesome. The archive is a fantastic place to find fic in small fandoms, and it's generally of consistently high quality, too!
