Holiday Gifts for My F-List

In honor of the season I wanted to offer some ficcy presents to all the LJers who have friended me over the years and supported my fic.

Leave a comment on this post between Christmas and New Years Day and I'll respond with a holiday haiku or microfic just for you. Here's my recently expanded fandom list for you to choose from.

Numb3rs, Supernatural, Criminal Minds, Heroes, The Unit, Psych, Bones, Miracles, Angel, Buffy, Blood Ties, Jericho, Brimstone, Cupid, Firefly/Serenity

For those of you who friended me for the fic without ever commenting, it would be lovely if you could delurk for just one post and say hello. It would be nice to finally meet you and you'd get fic out of it! Where's the bad? Consider it lurker's amnesty. ;-)

Happy Holidays to you all and thank you for being my LJ friends.

To you as well! I hope 2008 finds you healthy and happy.

P.S. I hope you don't mind me borrowing the CW universe for this quickie.

Happy Holidays, Emma!

Sorry for not commenting - my English isn't very good and I don't think I'm able to write long and proper comments your great fics should get. But... I'll try to write something
(Forgive me if it won't be very grammatically correct... ^^''')

Hi

gokuma and thanks for delurking!

Never worry about your English skills. I have plenty of commenters who aren't native speakers and appreciation doesn't require perfect grammar to express. To me, a ♥ is just as valid. Authors just want to know if their fic is read and liked. Feedback is just a bonus on top of that.

For what it's worth, commenting is a nice low pressure place to practice your English. People are very friendly and forgiving in this fandom, so comment away! I know we could always use more readers at

numb3rs100 and we have very nice authors there.

So happy holidays and I hope to see more of you around in 2008!

You're so sweet. :-) Merry Christmas. Maybe a little Brimstone for the season?

Oh, yay! Someone else who knows the fandom!

Just wait until next year when I start ficcing it for real!

Happy Holidays!

And a very Happy Christmas to you, my dear.

Your fic has made my year a much brighter place than it might have been otherwise on loads of occasions :)

I'll opt for Numb3rs, as that's how we met, I think.

emmademarais on December 27th, 2007 09:59 pm (UTC)

Aww, thank you! You're so sweet.

BTW, I tried to download Primeval again and had problems a second time. Gah! It's taking an eternity to get the stupid episodes! Good thing I'm patient. /smiles/

Happy Holidays to you, Mr. Fred and the canine units!

Merry, Merry Christmas to you too, dear Emma and a happy new year.

And, be sure, I'll read and comment your marvellous fics the whole next year, again.
So, now, you got it. :) :)

Keep on writing and give my warmest regards to your muse...

Thank you and happy holidays to you as well.

As you've seen I don't bite and commenting can be fun! Thanks for delurking this year and I look forward to seeing more of you in 2008!

The muse is off plotting more Vampire!Porn /blushes/ but I'll pass on your regards when she returns. /grins/

Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays to you too, whichever one fits better. And maybe a bit of Criminal Minds to make the holidays even better :)

emmademarais on December 27th, 2007 10:13 pm (UTC)

Thanks! I'm more of a Happy New Years girl, so Happy New Years! ;-)

I guess we have a number of fandoms in common if you also like CM.

Coming right up!

Happy Holidays!

I don't want to have to do the research to write any "Jericho" fic, so I'm going to ask you to write it for me. *eg* I would like a lovely Mimi/Stanley/Jake threesome.

cerisereve on December 26th, 2007 02:56 am (UTC)

Hello there Emma! Without you I doubt I’d ever have left lurkdom and been as active in the Numb3rs universe as I am. I also know I would never have dreamed of trying my hand at fic without you cheering me on.

I hope you have a magnificent Christmas and New Year.

emmademarais on December 27th, 2007 10:33 pm (UTC)

Oh, that's so wonderful to hear! You've been so great in the fandom I can't imagine you not being so involved!

Can't wait for your fic to be all posted so I can read it!

Have a wonderful New Years and may 2008 bring you many words and much fandom fun. :-)

sororcula on December 26th, 2007 07:50 am (UTC)

Whee, how fun! It feels kind of greedy to request anything so soon after that amazing birthday fic (which, don't worry, I haven't forgotten about reccing soon, haha!), but, you know, I am JUST THAT GREEDY, so:

How about something with Bones, and if you're feeling it, Bones/Numb3rs. Bonus points for Amita. ;-)

Now I'm thinking up all SORTS of Bones/N3 pairings and that's a sign for me to stop, heh.

Happy Holidays to you too, my dear!

penguingal on December 26th, 2007 08:34 pm (UTC)

Happy Holidays my love! This is a lovely idea. Just to add a little spice to our lives together, how about a Unit or Firefly/Serenity gifty from you? ;D

jisatsu90 on December 26th, 2007 08:44 pm (UTC)

Happy holidays from me, too.
I have to apologize for not commenting.
I really loved your 5-Nights-Series for Criminal Minds. Maybe you feel like finishing it some time.
Best wishes, jiu

emmademarais on December 28th, 2007 04:20 am (UTC)

Hi, Jiu! Thanks for delurking to say hello! I'm always happy to have CM fans as friends. The show just keeps getting better and better. I really need to fic it more often in 2008.

I would *love* to finish the Five Nights Series. It's been killing me to not have Reid's nightmare written. Oddly people asking me about fic tends to help get them done (my muse likes the attention I guess) so hopefully this is the push she needs to give me that fic so I can move on to the epilogue which I've had in my head for over a year now I think. Gah!

Happy holidays and I hope to see more of you here in the year to come!

Merry Christmas Em, hope you had a lovely day! Because you're a goddess of all things Criminal Minds, could you please write a CM ficlet of some sort? *big hugs* :)

(Reply) (Thread) (Link)

emmademarais on December 28th, 2007 04:53 am (UTC)

Oh, you're too nice! I don't deserve such flattery!

Your CM ficlet got a bit long so I think I'll actually try to publish it as a real fic. (I'll spoil it for you though since you inspired it.) /smiles/

I hope you have a marvelous 2008 and I promise to try to write more CM fic in the year to come.

Okay, I am a bad fan. :covers face in shame: You are my favorite fic-writer and I have not once commented on your stuff. :is more ashamed:

Only after I started posting my own fic did I realize how truly unfair that is. So I'm letting you know now how crazy I am about your writing.

I hope you had a fabulous Christmas and that maybe Santa will bring all of us a late Christmas present in the form of more Emma DeMarais fic? Possibly? Possibly Colby- or Hotch-related? Possibly? Possibly both? Possibly naked? =D (I'm sure he'll forgive me for being Jewish this once. ;D)

Thanks again for making my day every time you turn out something new and for being an inspiration to a fellow writer. <3
