Yuletide reveals
Jan. 2nd, 2024 09:01 amI ended up writing three works for Yuletide this year.
See, back in the beginning of 2023, I signed up for Fandom Trumps Hate. Someone bid on my offer and I agreed to write a Saint of Steel fic. It took me most of the year to get around to it, but when I realized that Yuletide sign-ups were fast approaching, I got to work. I eventually posted The Clamour of Imprudent Hearts.
So when I signed up for Yuletide, Saint of Steel was fresh in my mind. I offered a number of things, but got matched on that. I wrote Truth Not Denied.
I turned that in a week or so ahead of deadline, and then casually saw that there were a couple Saint of Steel pinch-hits required. "Well," I thought to myself, "I've just spent six weeks immersed in the canon, how difficult a request could they possibly have?" and signed up for one. The result was Temple Heart.
After the deadline passed I thought I would look at the requests of my various friends (as they had posted in Dear Author letters) checking to see if any of them had requested a fandom for which I could whip off a drabble or other very short fic for Yuletide Madness. TO my actual, unfeigned, surprise, one of my friends had requested Saint of Steel! I'd already written three fics in the fandom in the last two months, so, sure! End of a Thread or Start of an Adventure was the result.
