Yuletide letter

Dear Yuletide Author,

You are awesome! And terribly brave! (This is my second year doing Yuletide, but so far as I can tell, the appeal seems to lie in the adrenalized combination of writerly terror and fannish glee.) I hope my prompts have not scared you with their detail or number of exclamation points. Perhaps this post will reassure you.

( Follow the white rabbit.... )
