Dear Yuletide Writer
Dear Yuletide Writer,
I am linking you to my letter from last year as nothing has appreciably changed in my tastes, I do hope that's ok. Do please ask anything you may wish to there or here as I'm screening comments for all round privacy!
Hugs,

Changing word counts
Ok, now this may be me being stupid, but why are there three different word counts on my latest fic? It wouldn't matter except that I'm writing for picfor1000 which obviously needs 1000 words exactly. So - I have 1000 words exactly in Googledocs where I'm writing, but then I'm curious (because it's happened before) so I paste the fic into Word to see if ( Read more... ) -

Yuletide, Sherlock Holmes, Hobbit, XMas etc.
Oh, there's so much to talk about that I'll only skim the surface! First, my Yuletide fic is in as of about an hour ago or so - which is late for me, but I started it late because of finishing dream_holiday yada yada - and I happened to see that there's a greyed out fic waiting for me on AO3, so no fears this year of being last on the pinch hit list :) ( Read more... )
