Dear yuletide author:
Oct. 8th, 2013 10:52 pmDear ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
yuletide author,
Thank you very much for writing for me. I appreciate it. As I say every year, I am a very strong believer that optional details are optional, and also that it does me good to read things I didn't expect to read. So if you have your assignment and your idea, go away and write that now and never mind me, and I will love whatever it is.
If you like to have more guidance, then here we go:
( The True Meaning of Smekday - Adam Rex )
( MASH )
( Parks and Recreation )
( Amstel Lager - The Chef )
Generally I like: people being competent; people being kind; found families and communities; gen and queer gen, though I'm down with any kind of pairing you like, inc poly; cliché tropes; friendships.
Generally, I don't like: women being erased; PWPs; character-bashing.
Lastly: I just got married. It was great, we threw a party. Why do you care. Because it was wedding no. 1 of 2. Wedding 2 of 2 takes place on December 29th and 30th, in New Delhi, a city which is approximately 4500 miles from where I'm writing this. While I may have time to read/comment on yuletide the week before the wedding, I may well... not. I honestly can't say at this stage. And after the wedding I am away another week, so I may not read your story until, ah, Epiphany or reveals or whatever. I am so sorry about that, in advance, and I don't want you to think I hate you or your story or that I'm not enormously grateful to you for writing for me! Because I don't and I don't and I am, and thank you, again.
Happy yuletide!
