I am still sick, but well enough to be bored and well enough to write, so I am working on my to-do list.

This is a commentary for Common Issues in Child Care (gen Gallifrey fic)! It was requested slightly less than a year ago by aralias. I live up to my commitments! Very slowly. If you want to read the commentary, I suggest reading the original fic first, because I probably spoil the plot with my commentary, and I definitely spoil the pacing.

If, for some reason, you have always wanted to hear my thoughts on my fic, I'm always taking requests. You probably will not have to wait a year, since I currently have very little to do.

This is written DVD-style, with comments in bold and fic in... non-bold. Sorry about any weird formatting - my copy of word doesn't play well with DW/LJ.

Let me talk about my Carnivale giftfic again, first: From the Dirt by arllama was really great, and I love it and the author forever because I got a story for meeee. (I'm like this during every story exchange, but especially Yuletide. A story for meeeee.)

And Reveals! I wrote eleven fics again, just like last year - it may possibly become a tradition, though it's probably best that I don't try to commit to it. I was much more delayed on my main fic this time, and then I ended up writing a second fic for my assigned person and a bunch of random treats on the 20th, which was better than last year (when I wrote treats on the 24th). Basically my only resolution last year was to start writing treats earlier, so that worked out, haha.

Short headers and some commentary:

In summary, Yuletide was a blast and now I have to go respond to comments. And start stockpiling obscure fandoms for next year.

Here is my first shot at trying to write commentary for a fic. It is for When Gangster Bosses Ruled the City (gen Tintin fic), and it was requested by curuchamion . I hope this is interesting and not just pointless navel-gazing? If this works out, this will probably be one of those vaguely irregular features like the deanons that I do instead of bothering to come up with new content. Woo! Commentary in bold.

To sum up, I was exhausted and then noir. I guess? It's just one of those things that happens.
