Dear Yuletide Writer:

Sorry this is a couple of days late! RL is frantic and a mess ... .

The most important thing is for you to write something that you will enjoy writing! I think that the results of any creative effort turn out better when the creator is doing something that s/he likes, after all. The only thing that I will demand is a happy ending: this is the dark end of the year, when we could all use a little joy!

( Cut for details )

Happy Yuletide to All!

I have a very sweet, slightly cockeyed DOGS story for Yuletide! Badou teaching Nill to cook! Heine freaking out because Badou is letting Nill use a real knife! Naoto wondering whether she can - or should - let her guard down enough to enjoy being there! And Heine and Badou go up to bed together! D'awww!

Slice-of-life can be very tasty, and this is a good example.
