So Yuletide really is fun, I find. :-) I read a lot of stories I really liked. Once again I'll pimp my Nero Wolfe story, Furlough, which I now know was written by Re_White.
I wrote two stories, one as a treat. My treat was in the English and Scottish Popular Ballads fandom.![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
measured_words talked about a fic based on the song Lamkin/Long Lankin that made sense of some of the plotholes. If you don't know the song, someone put up a video to the Steeleye Span version, the one I know, here. Lots of blood! Anyway, this is the solution I came up with:

Andava_jamison and jlh for showing me what didn't work.

It takes place post-canon so there's mentions of character death and suicide as a subject.
I love bringing a little Halloween to Yuletide!
I hope everybody had a happy new year! I've started the new year off in the traditional way, housecleaning while watching a Hoarders marathon. I'm not sure how I ever cleaned before Hoarders.
Hopefully I'll get it together enough to do a list of some of the stories I loved this year, though I'm still making my way through the collection!
I hope everybody had a great
