Somma this and somma that

Well, I sort of stopped with the songs after Christmas but the last one was Mele Kalikimaka. Bing did it, I think. So did Jimmy Buffet.

Yuletide stories came out. My gift story was great! I'll rec and link it in a separate post later. My story was well received too so that made me happy. I'll put up on my fic journal after the reveal.

Got my Slashy Santa assignment. I don't think I am thrilled about it but I can certainly do it. It will, as always, be a bit brief but I do try to give good story in any event.

yappichick has made a scifibigbang page for 2009 and 2010 at Archive of our Own. I already uploaded my 2009 story and will try to do my 2010 one this week too. I don't know when the 2011 Event will be but I am thinking already of what I'd like to write. I am alexcat at A03 too. Stop by and read! I may put some of my non-archive works there.

Umm... that's about all I know right now.

Yuletide rec post

I will rec some more... got to the Ds in the list but here are some. My gift fic is the last one. Be sure to check it out.

A Study in Emerald Fandom
The Catastrophe at the Copper Beeches
A fabulous retelling of The Adventure at the Copper Beeches in Gaiman’s “A Study In Emerald” world. It has the same feel as Gaiman’s story though the POV is different.

*

Alexander (movie) fandom.
What We Have and What We Keep
This one is explicit and unapologetically PWP but is quite lyrical and very well done. (It will ask you to click to okay going to adult fiction)

*

Mary Renault’s Alexander Trilogy
Three Summers, Two Winters and a Spring
I actually have no words to describe this one. Written very well, it is like reading Mary Renault. I found myself touched to my very heart by the last section.

*

Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter
Quiet Longing
A lovely little reminder of what once was.

*

Burn Notice
No Leprechauns in Miami
An odd and funny look at Fiona.

*

Tombstone
Fort Griffith, Texas
This was my gift this year and it is totally squee-worthy as it tells the tale of how Wyatt and Doc became friends. If you love Doc, you’ll love it!
