Re: Your Yuletide So Far

[(Anonymous)]

I got many, many gifts, unequally distributed across my requests. Diamond shoes!!! I tried my best to be equitable in all my comments, and next year I'm going to drop some of my more mainstream fandoms in hopes of getting my Really Weird Niche Stuff written. Such a good year, though, this year. Amazing writing.

I wrote... 7? I'm missing one recip comment; everyone else seems pretty happy with theirs. Sometimes it's hard for me to tell what's genuine or not, so I'll just believe everything is face-value :D My fandoms are half teeny tiny, half big for Yuletide; in a total inversion of expectations my small fandoms are getting hits and my big fandoms are doing so-so. Even more confusingly, I've been recced in namespace a good number of times... by people who haven't left comments? ??? ???????? UNSURE HOW TO PARSE THIS.

Other fics in my fandoms have been pretty dang good, even if my list of readable fandoms is down this year. Some longfic that I haven't been able to get to yet because of No Brains, but it's been a surprisingly good year. Normally I backbutton out because of SPAG/characterisation within 5 paragraphs for most Yuletide fic, but that's not been the case so much this year, even though I've read less.

I think maybe the whole Christmas being midweek thing has thrown a bit of wrench in people's Yuletide commenting, because I'm v. sad to be missing some comments/kudos from fandom regulars who I know tend to go forth and click on all fics regardless of quality. I miss you, friends! I do Yuletide to say hello to you guys! Come back!

Oh, is this happening again? Went through a spell a few years ago where my fic had a ton of hits and very few comments, but was being rec'd all over tumblr I found out later, someone even did artwork for it... and not one person left a single comment on the fic, not even the artist.

This year, I've been recced by someone who didn't even kudos.
