Fic Year in Review 2020
I seem to be writing a bit less year over year since S1 of LoT, but I still wrote, which is the important thing. This year I blame my renewed passion for counted cross stitch for my lack of writing. I can't write (or read) fic with a needle in one hand and a hoop in the other.

Fic: Suddenly Everything Changed (Barry Allen/Oliver Queen) Explicit

Looking back, did you write more fic than you thought you would this year, less, or about what you’d predicted? About what I expected. I knew that I wouldn't be able to keep up with the sheer volume that I did in 2016.
What’s your own favorite story of the year? Suddenly Everything Changed - I had been wanting to try a Soulmates AU for a while and I really enjoyed doing so for my first Olivarry story.
Did you take any writing risks this year? Only if you consider writing a new trope and a new pairing a risk.
Do you have any fanfic or profic goals for the New Year? Just to keep writing.
My best story of this year: According to the Kudos on AO3 it would be Suddenly Everything Changed
My most popular story of this year: Going by the Hit Count on AO3 it's Suddenly Everything Changed
Story of mine most under-appreciated by the universe, in my opinion: I only wrote 4 stories this year, and I don't feel like any of them are under-appreciated.
Most fun story to write: Sweet Distraction
Story with the single sexiest moment: Suddenly Everything Changed - Soulmarks are erogenous zones.
Hardest story to write: Single in Central City - Movie AUs can always be hard to adapt, even when I do use most of the dialog from the movie.
Biggest Surprise: That I didn't write more. I had other ideas, but no compulsion to write them.
Story/stories I haven’t yet written, but intend to: This hasn't really changed from the last couple of years. I still haven't written these.
* Flommy sequel to Suddenly Everything Changed
* Sicily story - post Destiny with meta!Leonard. (Been slowly working on this one but it still needs an ending.)
* Next part in Finding Home series. (Sara and Leonard move in together.)
* Next part in Unfamiliar Dreams series. (Wedding!)
* Alternate Earth with seaQuest crossover.
