Sorry it's taken me a while to get to this. Worst timing ever!

Anyway, here's what I like in fic generally: Clever characterisation. Plot (especially mystery). Smut (any combination of gender and sexuality). Fluff. Hurt/comfort. Any one of these is fine with me - please don't feel you have to attempt them all! I adore AUs, but don't worry at all if they're not your thing - they can be hard work, and Yuletide should be fun. I have a massive teamwork kink, if that works for you.

Angst is OK, but I have a very strong preference for happy endings. I'm quite difficult to squick, but please don't take this as a challenge. It would be lovely if there were some women in your fic, doing their own thing and not being plot devices or motivational tools.

Anyway, on to the fandoms:

( The Shadow Police - Paul Cornell )

( Midsomer Murders )

( Angelmaker - Nick Harkaway )

Tagging Along (Kameron Hurley's Bel Dame Apocrypha) for marina.

OK, this is where I rec The Cold Song by EldritchHorrors (BBC Sherlock, rated explicit and please, please read the tags and summary).

From pensnest, February Fic Recs.

( The Masterlist )

I'll start in the next post.

The fanfic community is as much about our fellow fans as about the works we create in the fandoms we love. Sadly, some people are no longer with us: some have passed on, some have deleted their online presence. Fandom is the poorer without them.

In the fanfic programme room at Nine Worlds Geekfest, we'll have a memories board where you can pin photos and remembrances of fans who can't be with us. We'll be raising a glass to those we've lost at the AfterWorld party on Sunday night. If there's someone you miss, share your memories with others.

If you can't make it to the con, email your memories to fanfic@nineworlds.co.uk and we'll put them on the board for you.

I seem to have fallen into Skyfall fandom. I even wrote something. Eek.

( Double Dating )

This post is interesting. It's about how to be a fan of something (a show, a book, a movie) which has problematic elements (and what hasn't?) like racism, sexism, homophobia etc., without selling out your own principles. I don't actually think it goes far enough, but there's food for thought.

NCIS in feminist shocker :0

Title: Torn
Author: bravofiftyone
Author's Notes: This is my first fic in this fandom, and the first I've written for several years. For tibbs_yuletide 2011. Thank you so much to my lovely betas, viva_gloria for grammar, spelling and suggestions, and your_icequeen for doing a great job of Americanization. I have worked on this a bit since they saw it, and any remaining mistakes are my fault. Please point out anything you notice.
