Signups were extended until 10/31 because of a problem with AO3 challenge participant matching program, so I only got around to actually filling out the form tonight. As always, I am continuing the previous year's requests that did not get filled, which in this case means The Lions of Al-Rassan by Guy Gavriel Kay, Lucifer by Mike Carey et al, and The Dispossessed & "The Day Before the Revolution" by Ursula Le Guin (because I can delimit the Hainish Cycle any way I want via the character tags, and what I want is Urras and Anarres, dammit).
I have added a request for The Darkangel trilogy by Meredith Ann Pierce, which may present a bit of a challenge if my assigned writer gets matched on that because while I requested "any" characters, I then went on to say that I wasn't particularly interested in a story about any of the four characters on the official tag set this year. I just want secondary characters and world-building -- no star-crossed romance or angst whatsoever. :-/ Ah well, I did try to provide some ways to tell the kind of story I want while still using Aeriel, Erin, Irrylath, or Ravenna, so hopefully that will work out. And it may never even arise as an issue. Perhaps this will be the year that I finally get my world-building story about Al-Rassan! (Which I have been requesting for years but never seem to get matched on. *sigh*)
My 'Dear Yuletide Writer' letter is here.
