Stats

Vids: 7 made, a slightly different set of 7 posted, + 3 WIPs (3 more than last year)
Minutes vidded: ~14:00
Fics: 1 + 1 WIP (3 fewer than last year)
Words written: 950 fic + 1,500 meta + 7,133 Mary Sue + 1,800 unfinished = 11,383 (about half as much as last year)

And I wrote 35,400 words for work again.

Gen: 7
Het: 2 + 3 unposted Mary Sues
Slash: 2 (3 if you count the one with the male monkey)
Multi/other: 1

Quick-and-dirty fanwork goals for 2017:

- Round out the vids in progress for a proud total of 5 Festivids
- Do the "Fandom Trumps Hate" auction and probably the VVC auction again
- Try out the new
equinox_exchange (spaaaaace)
- Write more, especially Mary Sue stuff; continue rediscovering and expressing the evolving id
- Finish Jinni/Dustfinger fic
- Get back to Inkheart OT4 fic?
- Take concrete steps toward repurposing existing stories for pro erotica publications
- Meet with new "behavioral therapist" to get at the roots of procrastination, mood stuff, negative self-talk, etc. - I suspect this will help with fannish activities in addition to RL
- See also: Make judicious use of the ColdTurkey program
- Hope there is practical and mental space to do these things while grappling with next year's sociopolitical environment
