My sock and my main each got one gift story. My sock's was fucking AMAZING and everything I could have wanted out of that story. The other stories in that fandom were ridiculously good, too. My main's was pretty good! They worked hard to include things I'd really like and gave me a sweet little nugget of a story.

I wrote 10 full-length stories, but a couple had to go in Madness. The recips have commented on all, and about half were long, ecstatic squees that really blew me away, and the other half were short to average length really lovely comments. A couple of them have only the recip comment, but I expected that. Most have multiple comments, which surprised me since half of what I wrote was first in fandom. I don't look at hits/kudos, because I just don't care. I've seen people here and at FFA say things like "all the stories in X fandom are really good" and people agree, about a couple of the fandoms I wrote in, so whether they comment specifically or not, those aways give me a boost.

The other stories in the fandoms I wrote for range from good to fucking amazing (with a glaring exception), and the stories I wrote in those fandoms with more than one are decidedly not the fucking amazing ones. I've read and commented on most of the other stories with just a couple left to go, because wow, great stuff.

Correction. I wrote eleven stories, not ten. That's the most stories I've ever written for Yuletide. I wrote every treat I thought about writing including one extra last minute treat I hadn't planned. Super wonderful Yuletide for me.
