Dear Yuletide letter
Oct. 15th, 2012 09:30 amDearest Yuletide Writer:
Hello and thank you! I appreciate that you're willing to write me a story and think that's just awesome. To make things easier, I will now show you my wishlist:
Doctor Who and the Curse of Fatal Death:
There's only three characters for this and all were missing in the sign up sheet (I swear they were all approved when I nominated it), but what I really want to see is the adventures of the 13th Doctor played by Joanna Lumley, aka Patsy Stone from Absolutely Fabulous.
I want good times! Adventure!
SOURCE: (I am sorry, I cannot provide you with a link to this source material. However, there exists a torrent out there! That's how I got it, besides watching it on video when I was younger)
Enchanted Glass:
I really liked this book, but the ending kind of threw me. The revelation and then 'well, okay, book over'. I'd like to see what happened next, or a little exploration. Basically I want dessert to a meal where suddenly we ran out of turkey.
SOURCE: (I'm sorry, I couldn't find a copy of this to provide to help you, writer :( )
Chronicles of Chrestomanci:
I always ask for this. I just love further adventures. I'm happy with any characters, I love everything, but I'm especially interested in something involving any of the four I chose. It doesn't have to involve all of them, but I'd like it if you involved at least one heavily!

Neverending Story
Another one I always request! Throughout the book there's mentions of other stories with 'but that's a story for another time'.
I'd love to see one of those stories!

Stuff I love in stories:
Continuing of plot threads from the source, adventures, strong friendship ties/familial ties.
If you're into writing romance, I like m/f, f/f, and m/m! So feel free to go where the spirit takes you.
And now for what I don't want:
Rape, extreme violence, underage, racism, basically upsetting stuff. I know in Enchanted Glass the kid's mother was about sixteen, so that's an exception to the underage one, but I'd like to not see that written explicitly.
I'm also not a fan of much sexual content, but that's up to you. I'm not equating characters having happy consensual sex with the stuff above.
I hope I've given you something to start with! I also hope that the story you get is excellent too, while we're hoping. I'm sure I'm going to love whatever you make me!
Sincerely,
Rosencrantz
