Consider the title fair warning. I was not impressed by either of these, and if you liked them or haven't read them, you should probably skip over this. It may or may not help to know that my next post will probably be about 15 volumes of BL manga (all by the same author), which I accidentally read while writing my Yuletide story, and involve me attempting to justify this temporary obsession on somewhat shaky textual grounds.

This year I wrote Mistaken for Strangers, which is a short story set in Connie Willis' Oxford Time Travel universe (The Doomsday Book, To Say Nothing of the Dog, and at least one short story – Fire Watch – with two more novels due out next year). Basically, a short sequel to To Say Nothing of the Dog (the lighthearted Victorian time-travelling romp one, rather the middle ages plus plague one) from Verity's point of view.

Far too much detail about writing for Yuletide, this and other years. )
