WHELP, I guess it’s the time of year I should start thinking about the ficlets for the holiday cards. (Kill me now.)
Like last year, I’ve grandfathered the two ships I sent out the most fics for, so both Ed/Roy (FMA) and Victor/Yuuri (YOI) are going to be written, no questions. Vote for something else. :P
For those new to this (or who need a refresher): Every year, for the winter holidays, I send out cards to anyone dumb daring willing to give me their address. A couple of years ago, I decided to send out ficlets (they usually come to 900-1200 words), but I’m in so many fandoms, I decided to ask people to pick the ships they wanted to see. I pick 10 (-ish; I ended up writing 11 last year) to write, then let people pick which one they want in their card come November. And then, in February, I post all the fics, so everyone eventually gets to enjoy all of them.
For this part, everyone gets to pick one or two ships they’d most like to get in their card. When I close the poll (sometime in August, probably), I tally all the votes, and the eight with the most will get written. (If there’s a tie, I get to pick which one(s) I want to write. XP)
Because I struggled with picking a prompt last year, I'd super appreciate it if people helped me with ideas this year, so I added that to the poll. (You can just ignore it, though.) As I intend to use the same prompt for each ficlet, a more generalised prompt is better. (An ice-skating AU, for example, would be kind of ridiculous for Victuuri.)
Winter-themed prompts are preferred, because these ficlets are intended to be read during that season, but if I get a non-winter prompt that speaks to me, or a lot of people are suggesting the same thing, I go with that one.
The poll is HERE. (It's a google form, but I'm not requiring people to sign in, so no one should have any trouble filling it out. That said, please don't vote multiple times; if I suspect people are doing that, I'll delete the votes and people will have to sign in to vote.)
