I have a treat lightly plotted

I could end up matching with this person, in which case it would be my assignment. If not, pretty sure they'll get this story as a treat. I almost feel a little guilty, because their letter mostly had prompts for a character not nominated, but one grabbed me and hasn't let go.

Anybody else already in the planning or writing stages?

I have an outline for a treat! I was afraid I'd forget my ideas by the time it actually rolled around. I may start writing it if I get a muse! :)

Yay for us! :) I like to get things done early, typically, but I'll still fiddle up until the deadline with most things.

Yes! I have a few potential matches and ideas for two of them. Hoping it means I will have at least one in drafting stages by the time I find out if either of them is my assignment.

I also have a treat started from a previous Yuletide that I hope will get requested again this year. Whether or not we match, just knowing they still want it will give me motivation to finish.

I've already started a treat! Hopefully I actually finish it, but I really like the idea of it. I'm just worried that I won't quite hit the thing the recip sounded most excited about in their likes list, but two cakes, right? I'm hitting a lot of their other likes, and going off a prompt they had.

(I'm not signing up, so no worries that I'd match them.)

\o

I haven't signed up for Yuletide in a couple of years, so hoping to get back in the game with some treats. But it won't happen if I don't start now, so I'm already collecting letters and starting drafts. Fingers crossed for not failing this time.

I just started writing ... could possibly be a match as recip, otherwise they'll get a treat!
