I wrote lots of stuff this year! Mostly for Guardian, since lots of people requested that, but also one fic for Sha Po Lang!

My main assignment:
The Darkest Hour (Brings the Dawn) (E, Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan, casefic, post-canon get-together) for [personal profile] jo_lasalle
One of the fun bits of Yuletide and other exchanges is tailoring a giftfic to as many of the recip's likes as possible. Having a prior acquaintance with [personal profile] jo_lasalle, I had a lot of material to go with, and stuffed as much as I could in there. This is also the longest fic I've written for Yuletide, and my first try at casefic proper! I'm pretty pleased with myself.

Then, the treats:
Start the Sex Cycle (E, Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan) for [personal profile] jo_lasalle
Because Jo has the best ideas and put them in a letter, I was consumed by the need to write the washing machine sex she'd prompted for. The title came to me in a fit of inspiration on the 24th.

No Tome Unturned (T, Ye Zun & Ya Qing, mind control and bookstores) for [personal profile] lannamichaels
I actually wrote this one during sign-ups but only posted later. What can I say? I love cracky prompts.

Reformation (G, Shen Wei & Ye Zun, Zhao Yunlan) for [personal profile] lannamichaels
I spotted Lanna make a comment along the lines of "damn, I wish I'd prompted for this in my Yuletide letter", so I wrote what is probably the least anonymous Madness treat. :P

Shaving Face (G, Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan, identity borrowing) for [personal profile] teaotter
When I went on a second dive through the letters, I came across a wonderful prompt for Zhao Yunlan impersonating the Envoy, so of course I had to deliver. In retrospect, it's obvious why this was the most popular of my Yulefics, though while writing I was too busy panicking about whether I'd written WHALING ISSUEFIC to realize that. :P

Storm-blind (E, Chang Geng/Gu Yun) for [personal profile] shadowsapiens
I got a bit tired of Guardian for a moment, and had just caught up with Sha Po Lang, so I went and looked at the SPL requests and wrote shadow some porn to order.

Recentre the Heart (T, Shen Wei & Ye Zun, hurt/comfort) for [personal profile] lynndyre
At this point, I was feeling a bit self-conscious about being, like, 20% of the fics for Guardian, so I set my spellchecker to British English in a fit of pre-Christmas panic.

Total: 17329 words across 7 stories. I think I can give myself a pat on the back, even if I didn't manage to write treats for all the people whose letters looked cool. *goes off to reply to more comments*

Wow, 7 fics, I'm very impressed. Definitely give yourself a pat on the back. :) There were so many Guardian fics in Yuletide this year (and some of them quite long), that I still have a few left to read.

Muahahahahaha. :DD

I haven't read any of them (I think?), but I didn't read any of the Guardian yuletide fics yet, so that might explain it. ;) I should have known from the summary that the washing machine sex was yours, though. It's exactly your kind of unusual. :D

Great job writing so much!
