2015 writing round up

Dec 30, 2015 21:49

I posted 22 stories this year, for a total of around 80K words in 18 different fandoms (to be fair, many of those stories are crossovers in multiple fandoms or closely related fandoms - half are in one part of the MCU or another). I wrote some long stories (for me) with my Marvel Bang fic (about Zola) coming in around 20K and my fic for Jukebox ( Read more... )

I love wordles! As a physics teacher I don't get much chance to use them professionally but if I taught English I swear I'd start every book with a wordle of the book.

Be warned - wordle uses java so it does not play nice with chrome. If you do a search on word clouds you can find ones that are chrome-friendly. I made that mistake.

Thank you!!!

I signed up for the lowest level of getourwordsout and that is 150k (yikes!) but that is of written words, not posted words. I have at least another 20K or so that I wrote that I never posted - 10K for my kids, and then a bunch of stories that I started and abandoned for various reasons. So - maybe 150 is doable... we'll see! (If I add in professional writing it should be no problem...)

Your plans sound great, esp the Les Mis BB. Do I know that WiP?

Anyway, I may not be in contact with you much, but I am thinking of you. So to you and your family a Happy New Year.:)

Hi!

I was planning on writing a follow-up to the 1971 story. That story was set the year before Valjean was released. I am thinking of something after his release but before Javert shows up in his life again. So...Bishop? Breaking parole? Early days in MsM? Establishing his identity and business? Fantine? Still working on ideas. :)

I will also post another chapter of the Gifts story - that's the weird Claquesous centered - Lovecraftian inspired thing. The next chapter is after he's escaped Toulon and the monster has set him on Valjean's trail.

After that? Who knows. :) If pilferingapples comes up with some creative challenge or exchange, I will probably take the bait. Majorly Minor character week was fun, for example. And something I never thought I'd write.

Happy New Year to you too!
