Treats welcome!

Dear Writer,

Thank you so much for writing for me! It's always amazing to have a work in a small fandom I love, and it's even more special when it's written specifically for me. I cannot wait to meet you at reveals, and I hope you have a fun time writing!

Here's my feeling about optional details and exchanges: optional details are optional, but if you're the type of writer who clicked on the link to read this letter, they probably don't exactly feel optional to you. Because of that, I want you to remember that from my end, I am just delighted to get a story about a tiny fandom I love! No one is grading you for Adherence To Prompts, and so you really only need optional details to the extent that they help generate fun plot bunnies for you.

This year especially, I signed up for Yuletide mostly because I wanted to write for a tiny fandom, so these requests are for canons that are old favorites of mine, in which I would be thrilled to read literally anything that isn't on my DNW list.

I love all ratings, G to NC-17, and whatever combination of genders, sexualities, and relationship types (friends, lovers, cuddlebuddies, frenemies, enemies, colleagues-who-endure-each-other, queerplatonic life partners, etc.) you are interested in portraying. Porn with plot is always just as welcome as gen worldbuilding.

Everything Yuletide-related I have ever done is tagged with "omgwtfyuletide!!!" Previous letters are tagged "dear yulegoat." Please be aware that some of the Dear Yulegoat letters are hosted here for my spouse, Thorya, who sometimes writes for Yuletide but isn't otherwise fannish. Those should be pretty clearly tagged and marked "Thorya," so you can assume everything else is about me.

If you are into obsessively stalking your recipient, I also very, very occasionally Tumblr (Tumble?) at cadenzamuse realbisexualalien and I have a bazillion bookmarks in larger fandoms at cadenzamuse, as well as longer recs on this Dreamwidth under the "!recs" tag.

Yuletide Opt-Ins
I like and opt in to: treats, interactive fiction, Unconventionyule/unconventional format, Chromatic Yuletide, TransTide, Queering the Tide, Family Matters/focusing on siblings, Yuleporn, Two for One/crossovers and fusions, Three Turtledoves/polyamory, Yulebuilding, and Femslash Festivus.

If you want to write a crossover or fusion for me, I ask that you limit your options to fandoms that you have evidence that I am familiar with (e.g. I have written fic, made a fanmix, bookmarked fic on AO3, recced here on my DW, listed on my DW profile, requested for some other fandom exchange, etc.).
