Dear Yuletider (2011)
*waves*
I'm absolutely thrilled that you matched me on one of my small fandoms (Atonement, Melancholia, Our Idiot Brother)! I'm pretty darn open-minded when it comes to these. Optional details are totally optional as always, and hopefully this letter will serve to offer some options that inspire you. This is my fifth year doing
yuletide, and I really want you to have fun writing for me. So please don't let my optional details deter you if your ideas lean elsewhere. If you have any questions or trouble obtaining something, I trust my girlfriend
immortality or my bestie
prozacpark to leave me in the dark as to the specifics and to aide you in whatever you might need.
If you're looking for my fandomy stuff, I post here.

First off, here are some things that I love: Women. Women being awesome, women having emotions that don't revolve around men, women having stories, queer women, non-traditional women, women loving women, women doing/loving things/people that society says they shouldn't, women building their own narratives. Taboo. Consensual incest, queerness, non-fetishized mental illness, masturbation. Exploration. Character, theme, relationship, kink. Narratives. Parenthesis, non-linear stories, fractured patriarchy. Relationships. Non-romantic love, romantic love, trust, growing up, growing apart, growing together, staying the same, quiet moments, consent (assumed or otherwise), lust, confusion, domesticity.
A few (small) deal breakers: Rape (mention/dealing with canonical rape is okay), magical happy endings (happy endings themselves are okay), racism, fetishizing race (as in describing characters by aspects of personality, and then "the brown-skinned girl"), non-canon abuse of women (or anyone, really).
( more optional and fandom-specific details here )( more optional and fandom-specific details here )
And I realize it's neither here nor there, really, but there's a list of the fandoms I'm offering to write (the better to guess me with!):
Bucket fandoms: Atonement, Baby Mama, Bandits, Black Swan, Bridesmaids, The Class, Mean Girls, Our Idiot Brother, The Runaways, Up All Night
Partials: Parks & Recreation, Party Down, The Playboy Club, Actor RPF
And can I just note that someone WHO ISN'T ME nominated the BEST MUSICAL EVER and ONLY NOMINATED FEMALE CHARACTERS? *SQUEEZES TINY FANDOM*
