fannish 50 - #1: yuletide edition

[karanguni]

I'm giving fannish 50 a try! Today's topic is Yuletide, since it's fresh on my mind.

New this year for Yuletide:

• Learned how to code a Discord bot - recommend!
• Finished my assignment before December (!) - recommend!
• Wrote all my treats in the last week before reveals - do not recommend!

Wrote/Received this Yuletide:

• I showed up as The Usual Suspect in Tang Dynasty RPF (Li He, whooo), The Culture (Led and FOTNMC are my current jam, it seems!), and The Bedlam Stacks (Merrick & Mori, I stan)
• New fandoms were Batman: Wayne Family Adventures and my first proper Cthulhu Mythos (Dream Cycle) fic. The Silver Key is actually so good as a piece of writing about losing your imagination.
• Received an excellent Heike fic from yhlee and a very cool Star Trek/Left Hand of Darkness crossover from keerawa

Cutting Room Floor this Yuletide:

• Sniped the Kamusari Series from my requests; delightful worldbuild, but I couldn't find the will to figure out what to prompt for it. But! Magical-ish forests! Funny main character! So soothing to read. Gimme more, Miura Shion!
• No new canons this Yuletide D: I normally at least pick up an East Asian history adjacent thing, but IRL was v. overwhelming. lnhammer's astoundingly good poetry prompts did get written and with great justice, though, so the wheel turns sometimes!
