Dear Yuletide Writer

nursinggeekHello there! Nice to meet you! Thank you for clicking on the link that brought you here. I've never done Yuletide before, so please forgive me if this letter is a bit awkward.
My name on AO3 is the same as here: nursinggeek. Thank you to @isis for suggesting I include my fandoms et al. That seems like a good way to keep things tidy, so here they are:
What might you like to know about me as a reader? I love gen, het, and slash/femslash. Mostly, I love a good story. I am generally one for hopeful-if-not-happy endings. Hurt/comfort and domestic fluff are my jam. I'm generally more interested in canon-compliant or canon-adjacent fic, but now that has me wondering about what a Jane/Vincent modern coffee shop AU would look like ...
My DNWs are essentially the major archive warnings, plus anything that smacks of incest. (To use a non-Yuletide fandom example, I can't cope with Buffy/Giles because that relationship is just too parental in canon.) Infidelity is also a pretty big turnoff, though polyamory (especially canon polycules, such as Diana/Patrick/Simon) is wonderful.
If you decide to go explicit, which is fine but by no means necessary, I'll just say that I'm pretty vanilla. That's not 100% accurate, but easier than getting into the weeds of specific kinks and squicks.
I'm sure I'm going to love whatever you write, and I'm looking forward to reading it!
