So I am back from the Land of No Internets and starting to get caught up.
The most important thing, of course, is yuletide!
I got seven yuletide stories just for me. And they were (of course!) all for the anthropomorfic LJ/Fandom/DW prompt.
Serves me right for requesting poly: now I have to write feedback balancing how much I love all seven of my anon writers without making any of them feel left out or less-loved or like I'm comparing them with each other. But there is so much love to share around! Seven stories, all of them amazing and beautiful and great and full of the good crack. And I do adore you all, all seven of you (or however many there were.) I suspect I may know several of you, at least by network; if I don't, I'm missing out. Thank you so much for helping to make this the Best Yuletide Ever. :D I love you all in your own ways for exactly who you are, yuletide writers. I am blessed.
This is mostly c/p from what I left the writers for feedback, but I had to share the joy with my network:
( Four full-length stories: )
( Three Madness ficlets: )
...um. I may have somewhat over-used certain effusive adjectives up there. I plead the court it was entirely justified. Did I mention that the stories I got for yuletide were awesome and brilliant and lovely and gorgeous and perfect and fantastic?
(eta:the story I wrote has gotten a few comments and one rec, but as I'm fairly sure that's several times as many people as actually know the fandom, I am delighted by the response. and I think the story I wrote ended up being possibly the best fic I have ever posted. and I will still be promoting the canon at you guys like mad as soon as I'm allowed to. yuletide=yay : I think I need that on an icon.)
