2022 Yuletide Promo Post



Welcome to the Fandom Promo post, everyone!

Here's where you get those eyes on your fandoms for sign-ups!

Share what makes your Yuletide fandoms the shiniest and why you love them. A big part of Yuletide is how small our fandoms can be, and this is a good way to make sure other people know what gems there are out there!

NEW: We've made a register! There is now a searchable Google spreadsheet index of the canons promoted on this post. Go ahead and add yours or any you see that are missing! We hope this helps connect people up with canons of interest to them.




Here are some areas you can cover:

<b>Title:</b>
Please put your fandom's title in the subject of your comment, too. This helps people find your promo again.

<b>Media:</b>

<b>Approx length:</b>

<b>Where to find it:</b>
(If giving links, please only link to legal sources. You may want to encourage people to contact you directly if they are having trouble finding a canon and you can give them tips)

<b>What is it, in summary?:</b>

<b>What do you love about it?:</b>

<b>What sort of things are you likely to request for it?:</b>

<b>Are there sections of canon (rather than the whole canon) that can be consumed by themselves to fulfil your requests, or that showcase particular characters and relationships?:</b>

<b>Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence):</b>
This is at your discretion and is not expected to be comprehensive




(Bonus options: What are you thinking of requesting for this? If you're thinking of nominating worldbuilding, what sort of worldbuilding topics might people explore?)


Useful tip (Not required, but helps people if they want to engage with your fandom!):


- It's best to make each fandom its own entry with its own title in the subject line! That makes it easier for people to find/see what you're promoting! Don't worry about 'spam', that is the entire point of this entry and you're using it exactly as intended.

snickfic: Liam and Noel Gallagher circa the 90s, black and white (Oasis Liam smirk)

Oasis RPF

Fandom: Oasis RPF

Where to find it: You can find tons of material for them just by googling, but to start I wrote a primer that includes links and a list of major resources.

What is it, in summary? Brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher were the heart of the 90s Britpop band Oasis. They always had a tumultuous relationship, which ranged from speaking of each other glowingly to hitting each other on the head to kissing each other, sometimes with tongue. The band broke up in 2009 and the Gallaghers haven't spoken to each other since, but that hasn't stopped them from talking about each other, not to mention singing about each other. (For a taste of this, here is Liam's 2019 music video asking his brother to reconcile, which includes, family photos, child actor stand-ins, and a visual of the date the band broke up.)

What do you love about it? They're both huge personalities and endlessly quotable, and they have been extremely, publicly weird about each other for going on thirty years now. I find their relationship absolutely fascinating, and I love going through all the years of documentation (interviews, concert footage, etc) and watching how it evolved over the years. I really love the weight of all that history.

What sort of things are you likely to request for it? I am hungry for stories about any period from when Oasis was first formed until now. (Reunion fic!!) Kinky/porny fic, fic full of feelings, tropey fic with a/b/o or soulbonds or other bonus goodies... I want it all!
