I'm not sure how many years I've been doing Yuletide now. I did take one year off because my husband felt that it was getting in the way of holiday preparation. I missed it dreadfully, though, so I was back the next year. I'm happier when I'm writing than when I'm not.

I nominated some really obscure things this year. I don't know if anyone will offer to write them. I spotted a couple of other fandoms I might request. I just have to decide whether or not I'd be okay getting a story for one of those fandoms. If I wouldn't be, I shouldn't request them.

I have started going through the tag set to see what I could offer. I've copied over all the fandoms I've found that I think I might be able to write. I'll narrow it down gradually to what I'm really sure I want to offer. I want to go through the song and other media fandoms to see if there are any five minute fandoms I could reasonably offer. Last year, I thought seriously about it but only ended up offering one (and didn't match on it. Which is probably just as well as I'd have had to lie to the friend who was the only one who requested it).

I tend to offer a lot of fandoms. I limit it to things I own or can get my hands on very easily. I tend not to offer TV shows because they're too big to review properly. I currently have two or three TV shows on my maybe list. I don't know if they'll stay.
