sarashina | Yuletide Friending Meme!

(YAY you did this ~~so I don't have to~~!!!! xD) Back later, will pimp.

Name: Becky

Fandoms: A little bit of everything? Mushishi, Natsume Yuujinchou, Monster, Princess Tutu, Criminal Minds, Tanya Huff's Smoke books, every DWJ book ever, every other YA book ever, White Collar, Tangled, How to Train Your Dragon, Psych... I could go on.

Yuletide years: This was my fourth!

My fic: The Lonely Traveler in Mushishi fandom.

DW or LJ: Both! My LJ is

ruffwriter and it's a bit more... organized, shall we say. I'm also on Twitter as "cafecliche."

Journaling habits: Like I said, my f-locked LJ is a bit more organized! I'm sort of in the middle of transitioning my DW into a mostly-public mirror. I'm happy to be added either place, though! As for content, it's about 50% writing (mostly original), 35% fandom, and 15% real-life rambling.

Other interests: WRITING. Lots and lots of writing. I have a handful of different multi-chapter projects, and like everyone on the internet ever, I'm trying to get published. I also work at the Japanese embassy, so I occasionally ramble about it under f-lock.

Anything else?: Looking forward to meeting some new people! ♥

Oh, thank you so much for doing this!

Name: Kelsey

Fandoms: AWESOME LADIES. Right now, I watch Fringe, Community, White Collar, and Glee (despite its MAJOR ISSUES). I dabble in everything from comics to books to TV to manga to movies. Equal opportunity fangirl here!

How many years you've been doing Yuletide: Er, four? I did have to miss one year, alas.

Your fic: I was a bit prolific this year!

DW or LJ?: Both! My DW is

littledust, obviously, and it mirrors my

littledust account.

Journaling habits: I blog mostly about fannish things, although just about every entry mentions bits and bobs of my RL. I'm a full-time preschool teacher and a full-time grad student. I also have lots of Opinions about the media I consume. Sometimes I do memes.

Other interests: Teaching! Reading! Writing! Music! Pretty standard stuff, really, except perhaps for teaching.

Anything else?: Yuletide is the best tide! ♥

Journaling habits: I don't post many personal entries anymore, and if/when I do, it's on DW and f-locked. I'm generally happy to grant access reciprocally. I post a lot of fic and less icons and meta. I love reading and commenting on everyone's entries, though, so I do actively maintain my circle.

Other interests: Have a list of random things I like: cooking, travel, languages, music (all kinds!), reading, writing, cocktails, fashion, SHOES, running (working out in general), cats, movies.

Anything else?: Everyone should know that my partner brought back mint MoonPie crunches from SC for me... My whole concept of reality was shattered. MINT MOONPIE CRUNCHES, PEOPLE!

Thank you so much! Friends sounds lovely. :D

I love Fringe, awesome ladies, and I loved your You Belong With Me fic (and it seems we have a mutual friend in Lexie!) Would you like to be friends?

Young Wizards, Tortall, Temeraire, Gone With the Wind, Shopaholic, Georgina Kincaid series, Wizard of Earthsea, - in fact, lots of popular fantasy/sci-fi. :D Most of the books I desperately wish had a fandom don't, so ask. I can hardly remember what I've read off the top of my head, sometimes.

DW or LJ? (Or Twitter, or Plurk, or...): This is my DW, my LJ is under the same name, here

Other interests: reading and writing and idk, skating and singing and walking around
Anything else?:

Absolutely, and thank you! :D

All right, added on both LJ and DW (since I'm indecisive like that)

I loved your fic! It was just gorgeous, and I was flattered when one of my friends asked if I had written it (Classicist here, too, though a bit more on the Greek side.) Friends?

DW or LJ?: LJ. I have a Twitter and a FB but they're not often used.
Journaling habits: Mostly RL but with a fair amount of fangirl squeeing. And lots of fangirl meetups. I know a lot of my flist in RL!
Other interests: Apart from fandom? There's such a thing? In RL, I'm a medical scientist which means I am a giant dork, then I like travelling, hiking, running, swimming, baking (which hurts the last of these), writing, hanging with friends, going to touristy places with friends, nights in with DVDs.
Anything else?: Umm... YULETIDE SQUEE! :D I love this challenge and it would be awesome to meet some folk in these tiny underloved fandoms.

Oh, since I know some people have completely crossed over. I'm exclusively LJ based, so only friend people who crosspost and leave comments open on LJ too.

I respect your opinions, so please respect mine, even if we don't agree.

And finally, HI! *waves*

Journaling habits: It's a mix of fannish and the occasional bit of real life.

Other interests: Reading.

Anything else?: Can't think of anything.

Awww, thank you! That's quite a compliment! :)

Friends, yes!

Coding FAIL. I don't know how to do it on DW. Sorry that it looks all messy. Normally I am vaguely HTML competent. :)

Name: Holli
Fandoms: Doctor Who, Vorkosiverse, Dorothy Sayers, kidlit (Narnia, Young Wizards, DWJ etc), Discworld, Buffy, and probably a bunch more stuff.

How many years you've been doing Yuletide: Six, which, holy crap.

Your fic: This year I wrote Got So Far to Go, a Hairspray story.

DW or LJ?: Both, as

holli

Journaling habits: Some real-life blather, some fannish content, a bunch of original writing lately, and occasional fic.

Other interests: Knitting and spinning, crafts in general, vintage fashion, lots of old weird stuff. Oh, and I just wrote a novel.

Anything else?: Delicious recs are here. Also, and this may not surprise you, I <3 Yuletide.

Also, your icon! Is that *squints* an Athena Barbie? I can see her owl, so... That's awesome. I have this Barbie on my desk at school. :)

Ooo, excellent!

Name: Chris
Fandoms: Books: Lord of the Rings (just about anything Tolkein really), anything and everything written by Lois McMaster Bujold, Doris Egan's Ivory books (I will get Yuletide fic for this one year, I swear it!), Tad Williams, Sector General, James Alan Gardner, on and on and on... TV: Britcoms and other Brit shows (especially Green Wing, Inspector Lynley, Coupling, Jonathan Creek, Chef! Blackadder and so on), Keen Eddie, Max Headroom, Probe, BSG, Babylon 5, etc. Movies: Hunt for Red October, LotR, Buckaroo Banzai, Priscilla and too many more to list.
How many years you've been doing Yuletide: This was year #4!
Your fic: This year I wrote Control, the lone Max Headroom fic. Alas, I only had time for the one, but I've already scoped out prompts for NYR stories. ^_^ I also need to port more of my non-Yuletide stuff over.
DW or LJ? (Or Twitter, or Plurk, or...): Both! I'm also

karihan over on LJ. I have yet to tweet, FB, tumblr or much else, but I am giving Plurk a look-see.

Anything else?: Yuletide is love, and I always love to meet new friends.

It is! Though sadly, I do not own her. It's an image I found ages and ages ago when I was looking for a default Athena icon to go with my Athena-inspired pseud. I haven't been able to re-find it to properly credit it. If I remember correctly, it was someone who had created many modded Barbies in this vein.

You have, it seems, very many awesome interests! Friends?
