If you have a very specific prompt and are not flexible, it's best to contact the creator before bidding, even if it fits within their listed parameters. If you are asking for a specific kink, always ask first.

Chestnut_pod is offering:


Organizations this auction benefits: Bidder's choice of any of the listed groups (See full list.)

Type of fanwork: Fan labor
Subtype(s): I will read a book or watch a ballet of your choice and give it a full-length review.
Fandom(s): Any
Highest rating: E
Minimum Bid: $10
Audience: 18+ only
Length/scope: My minimum bid is $10 to account for time spent reading/watching as well as writing.

Relevant experience/background:
Years of reading

Additional notes about labor offered:
Please see my DW tags "books are the meaning of life" and "dance" for examples of my full-length reviews, and to see which pieces I've already reviewed.

Subjects/theme/tropes of interest:
I especially enjoy books with female leads and prefer books aimed at adult audiences (or actual children's picture books), and am most likely to enjoy (and therefore positively review) these, but am happy to look outside my scope if that's what you want.

Unwilling to address:
I will not read horror novels or books by Neil Gaiman, JK Rowling, or Orson Scott Card. If anyone tries to troll me with Mein Kampf or similar, I will resort to the mods; use your sense and good taste.

Other notes:
If I am unable to find a way to view the ballet or read the book you choose, I will happily allow you to choose another. I can't promise to like whatever you choose, but I will give it my best-faith effort, and my reviews will highlight what elements I did enjoy alongside my critiques.


Auctions run from 8:00AM EST, 25 February 2025, to 8:00PM EST, 1 March 2025. Bids before or after this period are invalid and will not be counted. If you would like to bid on this auction:

Step 1: Check the bidding spreadsheet to find out what the current high bid is. (Note: It may take up to five minutes for a bid to appear.)

Step 2: Fill out the creator's bidding form with a bid that is higher than the current high bid. If you want to make it harder for someone to outbid you, bid higher! We will NOT notify you if someone outbids you. FTH will only notify you if you are the high bidder after the auctions end.

Fandom(s): Tolkien: Lord of the Rings (books), The Silmarillion; Giselle; Spinning Silver (Novik)
Highest rating: E
Minimum Bid: $5
Audience: 18+ only
Length/scope: Less than 5k words
Special interests (what is this?): F/F ships

Characters/pairings of interest:
I especially like f/f pairings, but am happy to write any other combination. Non-male characters, characters of color, and Jewish characters all especially interest me, but I am happy to go beyond this remit.

Unwilling to address:
Kinks: scat, parent-child incest, slave kink, vore, guro, sex with prepubescent children.

Miscellany: character-bash fics, "reader"/self-insert fics, chatfics.

Other notes:
I will write a fic, a poem, or a meta essay on a topic of your choice within my chosen fandoms. While the fandoms tag says "Giselle," I am happy to write for any classical or Romantic ballet canon, eg Swan Lake, Napoli, etc. I prefer prompts to provide ideas, setting, and/or character, but not beat-by-beat outlines of a desired plot. In general, I do well with a more independent writing atmosphere.
