Fic Round-Up: 2010 Edition

I know I said this last year, but I really think that this year might be the year I kind of stop doing fanfic. I have many other plans, and the summer is looking to be a total write-off (uh, no pun intended). But if this year taught me anything it's not to make predictions, so I guess we'll just see!

Total Word Count: 20,359, give or take a penguin

Total Number of Stories: 14

Fandoms: Defying Gravity, Battlestar Galactica, Harry Potter, Stargate SG-1, Warehouse 13, Fringe, Stargate Atlantis, Awakenings and Inception.

My favourite story this year: Hmmm...this year feels like it's been SO LONG. I barely remember "Against the Moon". But my favourite story is probably "River to the Sea", because Leoben tried to tell me a story for a long time after BSG ended, and when I finally let him do it, it was kind of awesome.

My best story of the year: And, Begin. It just worked so well thematically and the fractured style I've loved since I started using it back in my early BSG days works really well for Inception.

Story most under-appreciated by the universe, in my opinion: I guess it would be "Against the Moon". I worked hard on that series and it kind of sank. I guess that's what happens when you write obscure pairing fic for a dying fandom...

Most fun story: "The Business of Ferrets". I did not set out to write Fringe/Warehouse 13 crossovers, but here we are.

Sexiest story: "String Theory", clearly. The reviews kind of cracked me up. "I don't know what just happened, but it was hot!" and so on.

Hardest story to write: I think that would be "Defying Gravity" (I'm not counting "work in progress", because I totally gave up and half-assed it at the end). I was terrified of Yuletide, and realized that I didn't know as much about the fandom as I hoped I did...but I pulled it out of the fire.

Looking back, did you write more fic than you thought you would this year, less, or about what you'd predicted? More. Lots more, actually.

Did you take any writing risks this year? What did you learn from them? I wrote fanfic for people I actually know! ;)

Do you have any goals for the New Year? Not really. I'm just going to see what happens.

( List o'Fic )

And I think I'll do the original fic round up in another post.
