Now that nominations are done and sign-ups are just on the horizon, here's a post where you can advertise your fandoms to the rest of yuletide. Tell us about your fandom(s) and link to sources you think will help a new fan interested in checking it out or an old fan looking for canon refreshing. And if you're looking for new (or old but forgotten) fandoms

Fandom: Slings and Arrows
Category: TV shows
Comments: Hilarious and fun but also moving. It's about the director of a Shakespearean festival who has to deal with wacky hijinks, the ghost of his mentor, and his ex-girlfriend who's an actor he's directing. It's witty and clever but accessible, plus appearances from Kids in the Hall's Mark McKinney, Colm Feore, Rachel McAdams, the actor who plays Myka from Warehouse 13, and loads of real and awesome Shakespearean actors.
Links:1. If you have netflix streaming, all the eps are available there

So this is something I was wondering. "Badass Women of History" is not a show or a book or anything, it's just the catch-all name given to real historical women who are awesome?

[daria234]

Yep, exactly. I just wanted fic where badass women from different time periods to get a chance to meet and hang out, so I called it Badass Women of History for lack of a better idea lololol. Basically, it didn't fit into one century or in one category like artist RPF or anything like that.

I loved Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk--what a great idea for Yuletide! It would be interesting to get stories from other characters' POVs, like Dime's.
