Brainstorming 2015

[naraht]

By request, a Dreamwidth version of the LJ post.

We've had the Yuletide schedule, so that must mean it's time to start brainstorming!

What are you excited about nominating? What are you still on the fence about? What are you hoping to persuade someone else to nominate? Or do you just feel like sharing some squee?

Like last year, we get we get three fandom nominations each with up to four characters per fandom.

If you have any questions about Yuletide and how it runs, it's best to email yuletideadmin@gmail.com or comment on a post at yuletide_admin, rather than commenting here.

I'd be interested in The Silver Crown!

Yay!

I read The Silver Crown at exactly the right age for me. I built a lot of background around it (unfortunately, I've forgotten most of it). I think it may have been a source for my love of scary conspiracies. I still loved it when I reread it twenty years later, but it wasn't quite the same.

I liked The Silver Crown better than Mrs Frisby and the Rats of NIMH (which, naturally, I read first because it was so widely available and recommended). I never quite clicked with Z for Zachariah, and Report from Group 17 was off putting for some reason (I don't remember a thing about it now, so I have no idea why I didn't care for it. I think I still have a copy, so I suppose I could reread).

Unfortunately, for health reasons, I'm not going to be able to do Yuletide this year. I was really hoping I could, but I'm going to be doing radiation therapy through the entirety of the writing period, and the odds of having to default if I did sign up are high enough that I don't want to risk it.

Oh, that sucks! I'm so sorry. Yes, I can see why you would skip Yuletide this year. I hope that you find some Yuletide stories to enjoy when you're feeling up to reading them.
