This is a surprise to me, frankly. I sign up to get some writing done, usually things I wouldn't otherwise have written.

I only sign up to exchanges for the gifts. I put a lot of work into my writing because I want to make it good for my recipient, and if they ended up hating it I'd feel sad, but it wouldn't ruin Yuletide for me the way a bad gift does.

That's interesting to hear, as I come from the opposite side. I received a gift I didn't like much even though the writer obviously wanted to make me happy, but I'm much more bummed that the fic I wrote is doing pretty badly.

Each to their own exchange experience, I suppose.
