Dear Yuletide Author (updated 11/22/11)
Nov. 20th, 2011 03:31 amSo… I've trolled the Yuletide archives for fanfiction for years. And every year I've thought to myself, "Wow. This is great… but I wish they'd had __x__ fic, too." And I'd think about offering to write for the Yuletide challenge so that I could request __x__ fic… and then run away scared from actually doing it. So, this year, I decided to try a challenge and see how it went. It went well. Still… I wasn't going to sign up for Yuletide. Why? The thought of writing a "Dear Yuletide Author" letter was too intimidating, of all things. O_o;;; Then
zoicite informed me that someone had nominated the Newsies musical for Yuletide this year. Well, that was the end of my making up excuses. So, here I am, signing up for my first Yuletide and writing my first Dear Author letter. I babbled way too much and I hope you'll forgive me.
So, without any further ado (because believe me, there's more than enough already)…
( Dear Yuletide Author, )
*deep breath* And I think that's it. Like I said, if any of the details I provided don't work for you, feel free to toss them out the window and write what's most comfortable for you. If you are happy and excited about what you're writing, I'm sure I will love it. Passion comes across and I did not in any way want to dampen yours. ^_^ I certainly won't object if you want to accommodate me in my far-too-verbose additional requests, but as stated many times, totally not a requirement. ^_^ Go with your gut. The fact that you're writing in one of these fandoms for me, at all, is plenty enough to have me thrilled and excited and bouncing for joy. ^_^
Thank you, again, and HAPPY YULETIDE!
