yuletide | Recent Entries

Just to clarify, since apparently there's recently been some confusion: This is an entirely unofficial community for chat about Yuletide. Official communities can be found at

yuletide_admin (or here at

yuletide_admin_feed) and

yuletide (or here at

yuletide_feed). We love Yuletide and wanted a space to chat about it and rec fics on Dreamwidth.

If you'd like to help mod, just let us know.

astolat or

elynross, if you see this and would like ownership of the comm, just let us know and we'll happily hand it over. Thank you for creating a brilliant challenge!

If the post-Yuletide micro-fandom blues have you in their January grip, fear not! The deadline for The Aurors Prompt Fest has been extended until 5pm PST on 22 January 2012--that's an extra two weeks (the original deadline was 8 January, at the same time).The Aurors, of course, is a Harry Potter-spinoff TV show that never was about the magical law enforcement arm of the Ministry of Magic. OCs are as welcome as canonical HP characters, and if you've claimed a prompt, we hope this extension gives you more breathing room, and if you haven't claimed a prompt, there's still plenty of time to do so!

Of course, we also welcome stories submitted to the collection that don't explicitly fill any of the posted prompts.

I'm cross-posting this from LJ for ~~great justice~~ even more nerd power. Along with our annual squee, recs, wank, IRC shenanigans, and flist-spamming, we also have the tradition of Excessive Listmaking to uphold.

Who wants to help me work on the Fanlore article on Yuletide's history? Most of the dates and numbers there already have citations from

yuletide for 2003-2007 and

yuletide_admin for 2007 on, but the un-cited ones could use links as well. (Yes, it seems petty, but it does help if one has a question about a date later.) The article is currently almost entirely missing figures for nominated fandoms, requested fandoms, signups, works, and pinch hits/defaults. You know you want that data. You know you want to make pretty charts. Who wants to help me find the rest of it?

Anne of Green Gables, Cook's Illustrated, I Dream of Jeannie, King's Speech, MacGyver, Muppets, NCIS:Los Angeles, and The Closer.
