Hi, Yuletide writer! Whoo, after my first year not doing Yuletide since I don't even know when, I'm psyched to jump back on the bike this year. Thank you for writing me a story--I'm happy we matched on any of these fandoms! If you have a story idea that doesn’t fit into one of the prompts I come up with here, go for it! But here’s some general prompts, likes, dislikes, etc., and I hope at least some of it is useful.

Things I generally enjoy:

--AUs and fusions
--genre mixing
--happy endings
--poly ships
--moments of discovery or revelation
--gen and casefic
--important conversations between characters
--first meetings and/or characters getting to know each other.
--cliche rom-com tropes--some faves include second chance romance, renovation romance, and marriage of convenience
--literally any amount of sex--none whatsoever, non-stop smut, I like it all
--having my heartstrings pulled, as long as there's a happy ending

Things I do not enjoy:

--dark or angsty endings
--character bashing
--infidelity
--gore--I actually really enjoy action, I just don't enjoy graphic gore or lingering focus on damage to the human body.
--non-con
--incest
--relationships where the parties don't seem to like each other


As far as fandom-specific stuff goes, I laid out my general preferences in the sign-up, but if you'd like some prompt ideas, here you go!

( The Doomsday Books - K. J. Charles )

( Eliduc - Marie de France )

( The 355 (2020) )

( Latter Days (2003) )

( Shooting Fish (1997) )

( Agatha Christie's Poirot (TV) )

I hope something in here is helpful to you, and that you enjoy writing your story as much as I'm looking forward to reading it! Thanks for writing for me, and happy Yuletide!

Best,

Hi, Yuletide writer! I’m happy to have matched on any of these fandoms with you, and thank you for writing me a story. I'll say ahead of time, I'm not very picky on plot details, so you have a story idea that doesn’t fit into one of the prompts I come up with here, go for it! But here’s some general fic preferences and stuff I would enjoy, and I hope at least some of it is useful.

Hi, author! I’m happy to have matched on any of these fandoms with you, and thank you for writing me a story. I never go into these with very firm ideas of what I want, so if you have a story idea that doesn’t fit into one of the prompts I come up with here, go for it! But here’s some general fic preferences and stuff I would enjoy, and I hope at least some of it is useful.

Things I generally enjoy include AUs and fusions of all kinds, happy endings, found families, moments of discovery or revelation, important conversations between characters, and first meetings. I love exploring relationships where both parties really like each other, and where both parties have interesting lives of their own. Fandom clichés are fine by me, as is literally any amount of sex in a story, from no sex or romance whatsoever to the super explicit.

My dislikes include dark or angsty endings, character bashing, betrayal, graphic violence, non-con, incest, and infidelity. I’m okay with complicated relationships, but I don’t like stories where the main pairing doesn’t seem to like each other, or where one character is the ‘good’ one and one character the ‘bad’ one—it’s just not a dynamic that appeals to me.

As far as specific fandoms go, I've put some rambling notes below:

( Ocean's 8 (2018) )

( The Dragon Prince )

( Anne With an E) )

( The Exorcist (TV) )

( The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996) )

( Tomb Raider (Movie 2018) )

I hope at least some of this is helpful! I'm sure whatever you come up with, I'll enjoy to no end, because I'm really excited about all these fandoms. Thanks again for writing for me, and happy Yuletide!

Best,
Tam_Cranver

Dear Yuletide Author,

Hi! Sorry for the tardiness of the letter, but in a fairly in-character move for me, I put off signing up until the last possible moment. Procrastination is my besetting sin. At any rate, thank you so much for writing something for me. My letter from last year is here, in case more information on general likes and dislikes could be helpful. In general, things I like include AUs, angst that resolves happily, witty dialogue, and loving relationships of all sorts. Things I dislike include character-bashing and dark/angsty endings.


For fandom specifics:

( Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter )

( Push )

( I, Claudius )

( I Can't Think Straight )

I hope at least some of this was helpful. Thank you again for writing for me, and best wishes,

Tam Cranver
