Dear Yuletide Writer
Nov. 3rd, 2019 11:39 pmDear Yuletide Writer
Thank you so much for writing for me! I'm super into all these fandoms and characters, and there isn't enough fic about any of them, whether the number of existing fics is 1 or 150 or whatever. So I'm sure I'll be pleased with whatever you write for me. I like a whole load of things and genres and stuff, so feel free to go wild. I'm providing some prompts and things-I-like in this letter and the sign-up, but these are just to help spark your imagination, if you are a writer who works better with prompts and details. You absolutely don't need to stick to writing about something I've explicitly mentioned.
(Note early on Nov. 4th: I may edit this slightly later in the day, as I edited some sign-up details and don't have the time to finish editing the letter now. But it's nothing major, just some phrasings and prompts and such - the fandoms, characters and the DNWs are valid as is.)
I like gen, f/f, m/m, m/f and other things. I like many genres and tropes, for example adventures, mysteries, romance, smut, domestic/slice of life, fluff, angst (with a happy or sort-of-happy ending because otherwise my feelings get too down, but it doesn't mean you have to make problems disappear), character studies, missing moments, past fic, future fic. I usually like either canon universe or fork-in-the-road/canon divergence AUs. If you want to write crossovers with two (or more!) of these fandoms, or with one of these fandoms and another fandom you know I like, feel free to do so.
Mostly I've discovered/read these books only fairly recently (save for the Wayfarers series) so if I say something dumb because my brain is having a useless moment, just ignore it.
I'm okay with fairly dark stuff depending on how present those themes are in canon. Ie. you can go darker with Machineries of Empire than with other things. I'm okay with stories dealing with mental health issues, especially ones that are present in canon as well, but please tag for them so I know when I start reading. I have some mental health issues myself, and while sometimes reading about characters dealing (or not dealing) with theirs is helpful, it's good to know that's coming up. And I'd prefer not getting super deep into suicidal/self-harm stuff even if it's canon. Warn for anything that requires warning, but generally, stuff that the canon deals with is also okay in fic, as long as we know.
( Things I like )
( Do Not Want )
And here be the requests! It's mostly just the same stuff as in my sign-up, but for some fandoms I have additional notes. Also, the Machineries of Empire part includes some post-Glass Cannon prompts after the sign-up part, so if you haven't read Glass Cannon, skip that.
( Imperial Radch series — Ann Leckie )
( This is How You Lose the Time War — Amal El-Mohtar & Max Gladstone )
( Machineries of Empire — Yoon Ha Lee )
( Wayfarers series — Becky Chambers )
