So blessed.

I received two stories for Yuletide, even though I defaulted. :(

I plan on writing the story I was assigned sometime, I just got overwhelmed with my Christmas overload, and couldn't do it. I still have another deadline fic to write, but that one is neatly writing itself in my head, and so should be a cinch to finish and get in on time.

In the meantime - next year, I do not get to sign up for Yuletide (assuming I finish my original story and a NYR in the meantime) unless I have finished my sga_santa. Period.

So - my Yuletide stories (how did I get two? I'm so blessed, but now feeling doubly guilty) are:

Feint, Counterfeint in the White Collar fandom. OT3 (Peter/Elizabeth/Neal), a beautiful piece from Peter's POV showing his insecurities and his place in the established relationship. A lovely little gem.

The Witches' Brew, an adorable slice of life of an AU where Roxie owns a coffee shop, Joanna owns the bookshop next door (and is an aspiring writer) and Kat lives upstairs, with her kids on weekends and holidays. Mia is off to college but coming home for Christmas (as are Kat's kids) and even Penny stops by. Wonderful.

I've also received ( this lovely Endicott studios postcard from lavvyan )

Last but not least, if you can guess what story I wrote for cm_exchange or sga_santa, I will give you something. I reserve the right to choose whether it will be a short fic, an icon, or baked goods. Or potentially something knit by my mother. Comments screened for this purpose, so guess away.

In conclusion, I am surrounded by my family (and cats, Angel is petting me), playing video games and lazing around and thoroughly enjoying my vacation. I am not actually doing well on catching up on fic reading, but I intend to do that in the new year; I will post rec sets from sga_santa and Yuletide, but surely not before the reveal. I hope you are having a wonderful holiday season, if you celebrate something, and if not, I hope you are having a lovely December.
