This year, like most years, I had intentions of writing a bunch of treats, and in the end only wrote my assigned fic. But I thoroughly enjoyed writing that! And it was for someone in my DW circle, no less, which makes it more fun IMO because you have a somewhat better idea of their interests ( Read more... )

I've had a thoroughly lovely Christmas Eve, which is when my family does the bulk of the celebrating including the present-giving. I hope you've all had likewise excellent days, whether or not it's any kind of holiday for you ( Read more... )
