Re: Your Yuletide So Far

I wrote one fic and I'm still waiting for my recipient to comment. In general the response has been muted; I got some feedback from a 3T1L which I appreciated, but I can't exactly engage with it without deanoning. Other than that, the lack of response has made me feel pretty down about the whole thing. I've barely chipped away at my to-read list.

My gifts were incredible, especially my main gift, so I do feel very lucky in that regard, but it's been hard for me to get hype about anything beyond that. The fic I write is just as important to me in an exchange. I guess I wrote something too inaccessible this year, and I'm stuck with a likely non-commenting recip. I'm just hoping I'll get some feedback when the fic is in namespace, and I'll just have to write m/m for a popular fandom next year, so I can enjoy myself more, lol.

FWIW, I like hearing that the feedback from the 3T1L was useful to you! I like doing them, like you say, the authors can't engage, so then it kind of feels like I'm writing into the void sometimes.
